A fluid filled engine mount including: a pressure-receiving chamber and an equilibrium chamber connected via a first orifice passage tuned to excite resonance of fluid flowing therethrough to engine shakes; a partition rubber plate partially defining a pressure receiving chamber and tuned to perform absorption of a fluid pressure fluctuation in the pressure-receiving chamber to booming noises; an oscillating chamber connected to the pressure receiving chamber via a second orifice passage tuned to excite resonance of the fluid flowing therethrough to idling vibrations; an oscillating rubber elastic plate having an expansion spring smaller than that of the partition rubber plate and defining the oscillating chamber; a working air chamber applied with air pressure fluctuation with a frequency corresponding to the idling vibration during idling, and to make the working air chamber atmospheric pressure during running.
