<font color='#000000'>Hey I just broke the second drivers side motor mount on the Tempo the other day. I could use some help replacing them, because I don't really have anything to jack the motor up with, and I'm not sure if I can do it by myself. My dad just got out of the hospital, so he can't help me.


P.S. Does anyone know why my brake aren't stopping like they should? I have fluid, my pads and shoes are good, my rotors are good, and it still doesn't want to stop they way that it should. Any ideas? I dont really know that much about Fords.</font>

<font color='#000000'>does the pedal get mushy or hard? or does it stay the same and just not stop?</font>

<font color='#0000FF'>Booster mau de freio de vaccum ou uma linha frouxa de vaccum.</font>

<font color='#000F22'>could be a lot of things. &nbsp;Bring it by the shop tomorrow if its not raining and we'll take a look at that mount and stuff. &nbsp;BTW, tempos arent race cars...of course corolla station wagons arent either....hmmm</font>

<font color='#000000'>Try bleeding them, they may have air in them.</font>

<font color='#0000FF'>Sounds like a bad brake booster or loose booster line. &nbsp;At least thats what goes wrong with my Fox bodies. &nbsp;My 99 has the hydraulic steering booster.</font>

<font color='#000000'>The brake stays the same but just doesn't stop as good as it should.

Chris, Today is the first time I've been online since Friday. Maybe we can look at it tommorow after class.</font>

<font color='#000F22'>I work every day</font>

<font color='#000000'>sounds like you need better pads
ill wager youve got the el-cheapo parts store specials <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'></font>

<font color='#000000'>Yeah, they are the parts store cheapies. I'm not gona waste money for performance parts on that car. But the brakes have always worked well up until now. I'm think rxtasy may be right. I'm gonna bleed them and see if that works.</font>

<font color='#000F22'>pedal goes soft if they need to be bled. &nbsp;if its really bad its probably your booster like cody said or really crappy pads.</font>

<font color='#000000'>This topic never even touched on the part of the engine mount. &nbsp;<img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'></font>

<font color='#000080'>just drive it with the broken mount. &nbsp;who cares. &nbsp;if your not reall worried about the car just drive it like that. &nbsp; Chros drive the MX6 with broken mounts fro a while &nbsp; and it was a high HP car that wasnt exactly babied</font>

<font color='#000000'>Good point, I'm just worried about tearing somrthing else up when it shifts in the bay. I guess it doesn't reallymatter though. <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'></font>
