Engine mounts... Which way is up? 700 1990

Hi All,

I've just installed a new set of mounts on my 740, I installed the new ones the same way the old ones came off (monkey see, monkey do). I'm begining to wonder though, if the old ones were installed correctly. Should the narrow end or the wide end be installed up? The wide end has a hole that looks like a breather or drain in it and that is what I currently have up. Thanks...

Sounds like you got them installed right. Do keep in mind the old ones may have settled over time and now that you have replaced them things might appear a bit "funny" only because the engine might sit slightly higher.

Drain holes down are always good
