'how they are adjusted' !
IMO, this is more true than not.
The engine should NOT rock in any fashion. If it does, these mounts are not secured/tightened adequately to function properly. I've seen where some are afraid/convinced, that if pulled down tight that will cause problems. Just the opposite is true In my experience. Changing 'donuts' is easy and inexpensive, so even if you crush the donuts somewhat...at least the engine is not going to rock if done properly.


It is also very important, when tightening, to try to compress/tighten BOTH sides equally.
