Broke Something
I got ran off the road yesterday, some dumbass was in my lane, and now my car is idling VERY rough. It still seems to drive fine and seems normal except for a little more roughness. I'm thinking broken motor mount. Any other ideas?
If your RPMs aren't dipping but its idling rough, its more than likely the motor mounts.
I have 2 mounts with the inserts all shredded so its basically metal on metal.
Idles like a vibrator.

rain finally stopped, went and checked it
broken mount, luckily it's the top one on the drivers side, so now all I gotta do is fix it.
Some 240 guys and an RX-7 owner have used hockey pucks as inserts before. Sound like too dumb of an idea to try?
