It can cause a vibration at different RPMs. If it is wobbling around on the crankshaft it could cause damage to the crankshaft's snout. And a worst case scenario overtime a faulty balancer could break a crankshaft.
A bad harmonic balancer can cause a knocking noise. The harmonic balancer doesn't actually produce the noise, but it can cause the noise in the engine.
I would contact the local parts store and replace the harmonic balancer if you think it is bad. a bad balancer can cause failure in the crankshaft bearings because of the shake.
Harmonic balancer is bad and will need to be replaced.
No, a rusted harmonic balancer will not prevent the engine from turning over.
Yes if rubber isolator is bad
With a harmonic balancer puller.
There is not much you can do with a bad balancer other than replace it with a new one.
No. The harmonic balancer does exactly what it says. It is to keep the engine from viberating. You need to install a manual oil pressure gauge and run the engine cold and hot to determine if you really have a pressure problem. Most likely you have a bad oil pressure sending unit.
do the harmonic balancer have a seal for anti-freezer
Harmonic balancer replace
check harmonic balancer. check harmonic balancer.
Depends on how bad it is....but I wouldn't advise driving it at all. A bad harmonic balancer can distort the front end of the crank and beat the main bearings to pieces. You are looking at creating a lot more damage if you continue to drive it.
