1998 Accord EX 2.3L Rear Engine Mount Removal/Installation
Just removed and installed a new rear engine mount for my wife's Accord with automatic transmisstion this morning. To make a long story short, this mount cannot be removed from the bottom of the car unless the left drive axle is removed. This was not an option, so I removed the mount from inside of the engine compartment by removing the rear engine mount bracket(s) and the one-piece rubber/plastic air intake assembly. Once the air intake assembly and rear engine mount bracket were removed, there was gobs of room to pull the engine mount out and install the new one. The engine mount bracket must be removed first in order to take out the rear engine mount. It was necesary to place a floor jack w/ block of wood under engine/transmission and elevate slightly to take the weight off of the the engine mount bracket prior to unbolting it from the engine block.
