Ok, so I'm crawling around under the 149 last night for no particular reason other than just checking things out. I notice right rear (starter side) engine mounting bolt Missing! [ATTACH=full]111702[/ATTACH]

   

    Now I Really start "Checking" things out and find front right engine mounting bolt is about 1/8"-5/32" from being tight. Both Left side engine mounting bolts are tight, gave them a Bump just be sure, "Didn't break out the torque wrench" but left side is Good.

 

   I Found a non WP stamped 3/8"-16NCx1"  3 Hash grade five and replaced the missing right rear. Tightened the front right and noticed a warm fuzzy feeling come over me as the bond between the 149 and I grew a little stronger.
