Yea I am really not wanting to take another mount bolt out, not sure how hard they are to get back in and wouldn't trust myself putting it back on. I guess I will just wait till tomorrow and go to Napa and if not, go to the stealership and see how they will try to rip me off.

Didn't someone just overhaul or replace that engine for you, Ryan? Or am I remembering it wrong?

Exactly! Correctly installed and torqued bolts don't just fall out.

yeah, it shouldnt just fall out, either they forgot to put one in or they didnt tighten it all the way, either way, id take it back to the shop that did your engine. how is the fan doing?
