yeti-dj 7 Posted May 15, 2007 hello, have destroyed the drivers side engine mount in the old 205 fitted with an Mi16 and havin trouble gettin a new one that fits. Problem is the new one i got seems to be about 4-5mm taller than the old one so now the cam cover hits the brake servo. I take it there must be slight differences but where do i get the one that i need??? Did do a search but couldnt find the answer so please help..... cheers people........

chris 417 mi 34 2 Cars Posted May 15, 2007 i fitted a new mount from a gsf equivalent parts supplier last year and it fitted fine , post a pic of your old mount, that might shed a bit of light on the problem ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James_m 0 Posted May 16, 2007 How does your exhaust manifold fit in relation to the bulkhead now? is it so high up the downpipeis close to/ hits the bulkhead? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshpug 1,657 Posted May 16, 2007 4-5mm sounds about right for a worn mounting, new ones will be taller, my bet is that the engine was fitted when an old mount was in place hence the clearance problems weren't evident. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yeti-dj 7 Posted May 16, 2007 (edited) hello, yes the mount was old when i fitted the engine so that could be the problem. As for the exhaust manifold/downpipe i have had to cut alot off the downpipe to get it to clear everything fine so guessing fitting a new mount will cause problems with this, hopefully getting a 4 branch from Miles though soon so will get rid of the re-angled thing. I did try the new mount and when wellying it turning right the cam cover hit the brake servo and caused alot of vibration through the pedals, how do i get round this problem then if i fit the new mount? yeti Edited May 16, 2007 by yeti-dj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
