Oil buring smell after installing lighter pulley
 

I installed kartboy pulley and after brift drive(20min) buring oil smell comes through a/c vent. Anyone had similar problem? Tks

Check that your install didn't mess up the oring behind the pulley. If it's leaking that may be whats burning.

Just did a Perrin pulley earlier today and notice nothing of the sort. As apoc stated check the crankshaft pulley spacer and verify it didn't become unseated.

Oring was fine. Never came out or anything.

I would check around the engine below the pulley. If it's all clean you're fine. You may have dripped a bit oil somewhere and it's just burning off.

This, if you're 100% sure the o-ring is fine then make sure the pulley isn't leaking. I have the Perrin and it doesn't leak at all and the Kartboy shouldn't ether. If it does then contact Kartboy for a replacement.

Ok, thanks. Its driving me crazy!! I dont see any leak at all..

How long have you had thr car for? Mind did this for a bit and then it went away. I have the kartboy pulley as well but I have been smelling something burn, nit sure if it's othrrs cars or mine
