Whole Engine Moves...!?

[silverknight1311]

I have a 98 2.2 and just noticed the other day that when I shift to park or drive the whole engine turns forward or backwards...Is that normal or am I missing some screws?

Also...my car makes a little squeeking noise ( just a little) when I am in anything but park...or maybe its nuetral that doesn't make the noise...either way the noise is still there. Anyone know what that is from?

ive heard of the whole engine shaking before when someone puts aftermarket headers and usually that problem is fixed with some motor mounts

Yeah motor mounts... check and make sure you still have some.

Make sure all connections from sparks to ignition coil are good, and have NO interruptions.

I too have a 98 cavalier that was doing the same thing except mine was stalling when I would slow or stop. I checked my motor mounts, spark plugs, wires and filters, I actually needed a new fuel pump, you may want to check that out if it is still occring.
