RUBBER INSERTS
WHERE WOULD I LOOK FOR SOME RUBBER INSERTS TO DAMPEN THE VIBRATION ON A GAS 45CC ENGINE?
I`VE ALREADY GOT THE MOUNT AND I`D LIKE TO PUT SOME RUBBER BETWEEN IT AND THE FIRE WALL. RCM

RE: RUBBER INSERTS
They sell rubber grommets and rubber washers at Lowes and Home Depot....is that what your talking about. Not sure they will dampen much or hold up to a Gas motor though. I use them on cowling though to keep the screws from tearing via the vibes.
You should be cranking down sufficient to deform and destroy any rubber....

RE: RUBBER INSERTS
I used the MVVS Isolation mount rubbers, there is rubber tube that goes all the way though the false bulkhead with O rings around it and flat washers in front and behind, this effectivly isolates the engine from the main firewall, you should be able to get them from any of the MVVS inporters in you location.
They dampen sound rather than vibration, but do reduce the vibrations some.

EDIT: added a couple of more pics to hope make this clearer.
