Also motor mount on top right along with front and rear motor mounts. If revs up and no speed check drive belt and especially rear clutch ramp buttons for wear or damage,can cause problems. Good luck

Default engine troubles

Found the top motor mount, everything seems in order, but there seems to be too much movement of the motor. Problem started when son was jumping with it. Next time he took it out, it wrecked the belt and put enough pressure on clutch cover to slice it on driven pulley. New belt, same thing, all rpms and not much speed. When looking down on clutch bolt, it appears to move .5 to .75 inches. What is normal? It's enough to cause filter to push on clutch cover. Also, how high up on the clutch should the belt ride at wide open? It only comes about 1/4 way up. Any ideas? Thanks

Also just noticed, part no on new belt is 3211077 where as old belt is no 3211048 and appears a bit shorter, and a tad bit narrower(just wear?) Anyone know the correct belt?
