Thanks, preylude99, that sounds like a serious possibility.

ASIMO, When you say front motor mount, are you talking about the mount located directly behind the radiator? If so, I just replaced it with no resullts. Thanks

Check the EGR valve. Also, (if the car has one) IAC valve.

Okay, I tried to live with it and I can't. I hear the rear motor mount has some sort of vacuum line to control the motor mount. In checking this out, I found a control mounted to the firewall that sent vacuum to a module that appeared to be connected near this motor mount. The control had an electrical connection and an adjustable knob. (tried the knob and did nothing.) Is this for real and how does this work? Any help would be greatly appreciated cause I can't stand the shake NO MO!!

The problme might be the throotle cable that is connected to the throtle valve of the throttle body. It might need more tension in it by adjusting those two nuts that hold the cable in place on the throttle body. Hope this helps

Honda has a flow chart to test the solenoid and vacuum controls for the engine mount. I would suggest following the flow chart.
