I just opened up my engine bay to change my air filter..
However, I noticed this thing is wobbling.. Is this normal? |

Sorry, my old eyes can't see that well.
Can you zoom in on it ... ?? humfrz PS - if it's a pulley you're looking at ...... no, none of them are supposed to wobble. |

Oh, yes ..... NOW I see, @FRSure...... whenever the idler pulley has to move that much ..... that means the camshafts are badly worn .... which has already put stress on the main bearings of the crankshaft ....... which will have already started to eat into the rod bearings ..... and it will soon totally explode the whole engine.
@Ultramaroon and I will take it off your hands for $2,000, to use when we want to tour the East coast. Just park it, pump up the tires, put sta-bil in the gas tank and one of us will pick it up next fall for a driving tour of the East coast. You're quite welcome. humfrz |
