Time for SpeedBleeders. Let mom get back in the kitchen...

Might be a good idea just to recheck them. Things can go wrong from time to time. Also, maybe an air buble got sucked in the master cylinder when you were doing it. You never know.

Um, no.
You need to not use the A/C. Your engine shakes because the weak little motor has to work harder, and the mushy stock motor mounts allow it to move around.

Now you know.
