Wait, I just realized something, how would I be able to do this test w/ stick shift? Wouldn't the engine stall?

Re: How to Check for Bad Engine Mounts
Well, it seems the rattle was the cat [spew of curses]. I can't believe that it went in 3 months w/o having them hit anything or be damaged by anything. The squeak on the other hand is still a mystery since everything suspension wise looks good. As for the engine mounts, considering that the cat was doing the rattle, I think my mounts are good.
