Harmonic Balancer Not On All The Way at Linda Platt blog

Harmonic Balancer Not On All The Way. Did you check the crankshaft size and the bore in the balancer to determin the fit?? One pretty easy way to check if your balancer is on all of the way is to bolt up the crank pulley and see if it lines up with the wp pulley. How do i know its on/in all the way? If you can hold the flywheel, put a torque wrench on the bolt and bring it down to spec. I installed a new harmonic balancer on my engine and it seems it didn't get pulled down far enough on the snout of the crankshaft. In the simplest terms, harmonic balancers absorb torsional crank motions to keep them from being transferred to other engine compartments. If that won't do it, you've got other issues. Just installed a balancer on my 454. I think i've got it but looking for peace of mind. I don't think it's quite on all the way. Indeed, despite the term “balancer” in its name, a harmonic balancer in a car is not designed to balance anything (surprise!). Most all aftermarket balancers need fit.
