Here's a video of the harmonic balancer while the car is running. I know the camera is kinda shaky but try to see if you can see the harmonic balancer sort of move left and right.

I think I'm gonna just try to remove it and then tighten it again starting with the torque wrench to make sure it's on solid.

Been watching all along. Pondering this tool shown in this pic you took.....


"Harmonic Balancer" :: The center as you know is about pressed in place by that bolt. The outer metal that has the belt grooves is isolated by rubber giving those things the ability to absorb the vibrations. The tool is holding the outer part on thru the rubber to hold the center which is the crank of course.

Did that tool really torque on the outer part?

Sorry if a repeat but can you get a view while running to see if inner metal and bolt are running true and outer is not? I'd want to know if the crank is at fault or the new balancer just isn't true for whatever reason.

You video of it was inconclusive to me. Someone may have better eyes (most do) than I do and didn't really conclude it was moving too much.

Just wondering just what is or isn't just right at this point. It may be the best way to hold crank while tightening that bolt but my gut says that is not a preferred way despite that a tool to do just such is made??

We can't see in the dark. If you post a vid of a part, make sure that part is actually in it and shown clearly. If you want to show a harmonic balancer then don't stand up outside your car, pull a tire and the inner fender to shoot the part you ask about. That vid was useless.

Based on the information you gave me I'm not quite actually sure what kind of video you want me to take but here's this one to view. All of these car terms are new to me so I am trying my best to follow along. If it's not what you were asking I don't mind taking another one.

Never mind videos - I want to know if crankshaft or pulley is bent........... If you can't tell the difference the job isn't for you,
