The mountings that hold the engine in place are way down in the dark places of your engine bay, and nobody pays much attention to
them. That is, until those steel and rubber sandwiches start coming apart, typically because an oil leak has softened the rubber.
This allows the engine to lift off its support, rotating under its own torque, and it doesn't take much of a change of position to
cause interference. In the days of rigid throttle linkage, this sometimes resulted in the dangerous scenario of your putting the pedal
to the metal and having it jam there, wide-open.
Many older mounts relied on the rubber-to-steel bond exclusively, so when the
mount failed the engine could rotate a long distance (drag racers used to run a chain from the head to the chassis to preclude this).
Newer designs usually have interlocking steel fingers that limit movement even if the rubber is gone.
