Dave Brown Vibra Damp T Beam

[William C. Harden]

Most vibration dampening mounts will sag under the weight of the engine.
If possible install a nose ring; it will eliminate your sagging engine
problem.   Also, a sagging engine will cause the plane to be out of trim
during the airplanes flight envelope; you'll be chasing the trim.

I have this mount on an ENYA 1.2 4 stroke.  The engine is mounted
sideways.  My problem is that the engine sags in the mount so that the
alignment is lost after it is run.  This caused a bind in the throttle
linkage.  Is this a common problem with this mount?  The screws are very
tight.
 
I would appreciate any advice  from anyone with experience with this
mount.
 
thanks,
Jerry
