1998 Chevy Malibu Question?

[CZR]

I have a 1998 Chevy Malibu (4 cylinder). How many motor
mounts do these car have? I took in my car to a mechanic
about 3 months ago because my car would shake a lot so
he replaced 1 motor mount and the car still shakes not like
before but I still feel a little shake. Last night the car
started to shake like crazy for about 10 seconds then it went away,
what could that be?

There are 3 motor mounts, one on the front and one on each side. It could be a motor mount. The best way to check this is to hold your foot on the brake and accelerate. DO NOT LET OFF THE BRAKE! Try this in an open area in case your foot does slip off the brake! Accelerate for a moment then stop, if it feels like the motor fell to the pavement, its a motor mount. If not it could just be running rough due to an 02 sensor or map sensor.
