what happened to my engine
so i was driving down the road about 35mph and all of the sudden heard a clunk clunk and started to lose power so i gave it a little more gas and then nothing went dead... seeing how it was 3am i couldnt see anything so i walked home came back when the sun came up and towed it home upon further investigation i noticed the engine and transmission moved forward and to the passenger side the fan is pretty much in the radiator. cant work on it my dad is occupying the garage with his truck. if any one could point me in the right direction so i can get this pig back on the road much appreciated

x2 on the motor mount
unbelievably this has happened twice to me, although I have never lost power or had it die on me, maybe because i have a manual tranny?
Anyways, both times the mount bolts sheared off at the engine block and I had to get the bolts extracted and replaced by a shop. Good Luck.

finally got it in the garage sheared all 3 motor mount bolts the go into the block did a little research and it seems to be a very common problem so every one CHECK YOUR BOLTS when the bolts snapped it busted the distributor and cap all to hell and back alot of money and time now so again check your bolts
