Default Engine vibes after I changed my motor mount

Last night I changed my motor mount on my 2000 si , the top driver side. I had my uncle helping me and he jacked the car up from the crank pulley and now every time I give it has it vibrates ...
So I don't know if my other mounts are bad or if I just completely ruined my car by him doing this 😕

Recheck the bolts but you should never jack it up from the pulley. When you look at the pulley when running does it seem out of balance?

Ya that wasnt a very smart move on your relatives parts. But like hondapartshero said check the pulley and inspect the other mounts

Try loosen all the mounts and re-tighten according to FSM.

Honda Engines are Strong ,built simple.... Jacking it up from the pulley shouldn't kill the motor. As for vibrations this is normal with any new mount... I installed All new hasport extreme mounts on my 92 si hatch, with a d16z6 and the dash never stopped having vibrations. This will be the same with any new mount....

I checked the pulley and there was no wobble, doesn't seem out of balance . My rear mount is really bad, today I changed the passenger and it helped alot

Are you using an FSM? Is shows the order the mounts are supposed to be tightened down. There's a note that says you will get vibration if not tightened in sequence.
