Default RE: Engine mount
It sounds to me like your engine bolts are coming unthreaded from your mount...is this correct? If so, just dab a little bit of blue loctite on the threads and tighten her down.

By the way...an o.s. .18tm is NOT too much engine for a T-Maxx

take a good look at the threads on the screw and the mount and see if it's stripped
