Replying to: yardhut (Aug 25, 2008 10:55 am) The crankshaft pulley also carries a block of metal that's called the balancer. They are separated by rubber. The rubber may deteriorate letting the inner and outer parts bang against the other as the crankshaft speeds up and slows down with the pulses of energy from the cylinders firing. See if you can wiggle this inner block of the crankshaft wheel.   The crankshaft pulley comes off with a big nut. It requires an air gun that will turn it quickly against the inertia of the whole crankshaft and all or you block the crankshaft in some way to loosen it yourself with a long handle on the socket.   Sounds like the people doing the superchargeer and idle pulley didn't fully verify that those were the source of the noises before they replaced them.
