Motor mounts on a '94 honda?

my friend says there is something wrong with the motor mounts on my car.



what are motor mounts, what are they used for, how long do they take to fix/replace, and tell me if you think its the motor mounts as well:



this is what happend to my car.



while i was driving i ran out of oil (my car was due for an oil change mixed with a tiny tiny tiny leak, my car eventually ran out of oil)

so i pulled over into the nearest gas station and put oil in my car.

i waited and waited, eventually i started my car, and it would turn over, but the engine would not stop shaking.

i towed it home, waited til afternoon that day to try to start it again.

by this time my friend was there to look at it.

i started it, it still shook prety bad, but the car would still be put into gear so i tried to drive it around a bit. it still shook and would hardly accelerate.

then eventually, it like seized up again and the engine died..



my friend believes its the motor mounts that are causing the engine to shake. cuz i have enough oil in my car and enough gas.



anybody else have ay idea what it could be?

ot how what it would take to fix/replace motor mounts??Motor mounts on a %26039;94 honda?
if you ran your car out of oil and this is when the problem started,IT IS NOT THE MOTOR MOUNTS,the motor mounts are what hold the engine in the car,you can not damage your motor mounts by running your car out of oil,it sounds like you have done some serious damage to your car,you are probably looking at a new engine or a rebuild.Motor mounts on a %26039;94 honda?
Its not the motor mounts being a trained auto tech for 11 years once the car runs out of oil and seizes the motor is usually no good, it could have internal damage, the motor mounts only keep the motor from falling out. make sure there's 4 1/2 quarts of oil in it. see if the check engine or service soon light is on and stays on. if so it could be a misfire or something else is going on. it needs to be taken to a shop to be looked atMotor mounts on a %26039;94 honda?
well you are a bloody idiot for driving it after it ran out of oil! you obviously know nothing about how an engine works, and lack all common sense. motor mounts are what MOUNT THE MOTOR to the car. simple enough? by driving without oil, you have destroyed your engine, and most likely made it worse by driving it again. waiting to start it does nothing. you could have waited a year and it still would have been broken. seized means that it is locked up, with little hope of it working properly again. congratulations, you successfully destroyed your car. %26quot;cuz i have enough oil in my car and enough gas.%26quot;-well smarty pants, if i smash my car engine with a sledge hammer and then dismantle it, it won't start, even if there is gas and oil in it. do you know why? because it is destroyed! if my TV is smashed, just because i plug it in, doesn't mean it will work.
