Hi,
I have another question that i just stumble on.
The left engine mount in my MX3 bay is like 1cm different from the engine itself, it just dont fit 100%.
Anyone have a idea how i can solve this?
It's the engine mount too the left if you stand infron of the car, i can fit it but then the other mounts missfit.
Engine is from a Millenia -95
Best regards!
Erik

Is the engine still supported by a hoist or something?

I've got a 95 Millenia engine in my GS, and it fits fine. Maybe try to fit the left one first, then the right one on the tranny. Maybe that will do it.

Mine didn't fit exactly either. You probably just have to move the jack around.

I answered this on ukmx3 but just for reference:
That's why! The above mount I believe was from a millenia, not mx6 as I wrote on the jpg years ago.
The guy who owned my ZE before me just used some metal spacers as shown in picture to get it about the right height to torque down on. Worked for years for him. If you can swap it for your mx3 mount go for it though. It does require removing the timing belt cover.
