• Q: How to replace the right engine mount on 2001 Cadillac Catera?

  A: Starting the repair of the right Engine Mount requires users to disconnect the vehicle's negative Battery Cable. Place the engine support fixture (J 28467-360) for engine support followed by engine elevation to reduce mount tension. First raise and support the vehicle before removing both Engine Mount lower and upper nuts. Lay the top right Engine Mount bracket bolt loose first rather than taking it out while you remove the three Engine Mount bracket bolts. The engine support fixture (J 28467-360) should be used to lift the engine for proper Engine Mount removal while recording the guide pin position before removing the Engine Mount. Before installation position the Engine Mount guide pin properly through the guide hole of the front engine crossmember frame. Attach the Engine Mount using the lower nut yet tighten it to 55 nm (41 ft. Lbs.). Position the Engine Mount bracket correctly before installing its three bolts to a torque setting of 55 nm (48 ft. Lbs.). Lower the engine with the engine support fixture (J 28467-360) until the original position is reached and then remove the support. Lift the vehicle and fasten the Engine Mount upper nut under 40 nm torque before adjusting it to 30 ft. Lbs. To finish the task disconnect the negative Battery Cable then lower the vehicle.
