When I did the mounts on Hlaalu's car, we had the car on (2) six-ton jack stands in the front and on ramps in the back.

There were a several hang-up along the way, the worst being that his y-pipe fought to the death before coming off the headers and catback. We had to make a couple of trips to the store to make the trans mount work. etc. etc.
The actual motor mount install didn't take that long, just gaining access to them was the hard part.

I can help you with that, but if the opti is original, I strongly suggest you swap in a whole new unit and not just a new cap and rotor.

Did you double check everything to make sure it was all tight?
Exhaust manifold bolts, sparkplugs, o2's, clamps...?

Where's leak coming from, passenger side or driver side? Did you thoroughly scrape the heads free of the old gaskets?
