    engine damper

    bought this few days ago to limit the movement of the engine and give a more direct power to the wheels,it has a plastic tube in it that stopping it moving up and down,does anyone know if the tube has to come out and replaced with oil in its place,no experience with these kits and no instructions were included!

    It must just be atmospheric then using a set of small valves to restric compression to dampen the engine.
