Default cheap alternative to replacing motor mounts

in that hella long post about SOHC upgrades i remember it used to say that you could use window cement or something like that to fill in the gaps in the motor mounts. Well i need to do something b/c my lower drivers side mount is shot. I was wondering if anyone has done this before, and how it has worked for them. Thanks

Hhahaha! This thread freaked me out until I realized you were talking about the bushings, not the metal mount itself..... to me!!

thanks a lot...i knew there was a way, do you think it's possible to do it without removing the mounts from the car, just squirt it in there and let it sit for 24 hours?

anybody did that to the rear engine mount?? and if so, did it generate the same amount of vibration as a polyurethane one??
