Re: Harmonic Tensioner Pulley BROKE OFF!

That sucks Scheidio. I'm just around the corner, I would've gladly tried to help, but the snow and ice took it's toll on everyone today. I didn't get to work til about 4pm and $240 lighter from a tow bill. And the vehicle I had sold tonight to a customer that drove for three hours from Eagan broke the door window mechanism from some ice build up, so the deal is off until I fix it. Ice sucks!!

scheides- your evo is just turning into a dsm with age.


On a serious note, I am glad that everything is ok

roads were shitty today and broken down on the road wouldn't be a good situation.

Re: Harmonic Tensioner Pulley BROKE OFF!

My dad's minivan got the bet thrown off in a large snow drift. Everything was fine, just had to put it back on. Good thing it was a 6G72, water pump is run off the T-belt.

Re: Harmonic Tensioner Pulley BROKE OFF!

That is nuts! Are you going to extract the bolts? Man that is a major mess...

I really cant believe that ice did this, I find that very odd.

You should post those pics on the eng-tips professional engineer forum. You would get answers.

Re: Harmonic Tensioner Pulley BROKE OFF!

Wow thats crazy. one or more of the bolts had to be broken or loose for that to happen. The Ice was just what finally finished that job.

Re: Harmonic Tensioner Pulley BROKE OFF!

Dude that sucks to hear...

Actually the other day I had a bunch of lights come on all at once for seemingly no reason. I was literally on my road by my house about to pull into the drive way and my ABS, swerve, TCL off, Brake, and I think one other light all came on as I was doing a fish tail (intentional).

So I was like eh whatever i'll start it up tomorrow and see if the lights are still on and see whats up in the AM. I think it was that night I was chillin with you guys Saturday. So I got up in the morning and looked around everything looked fine, took my car around the block and the lights turned off.

Making me wonder if I should really get under there and check...

Anyway hopefully you got everything all straight now, fuckin winter man!

Tim, did those lights come on after doing an e-brake drift?

Re: Harmonic Tensioner Pulley BROKE OFF!

I guess I didn't think of this before, but it was probably taken off sometime and the bolts were over tightened. was it you that bought this from some kid/guy in iowa?

Yup!

Oh also i'm like 99% certain I didn't leave the brake up 1 click, cause I pulled it back up and down again like 2-3 times when I saw the lights come on.

But I dunno.. maybe?/

Re: Harmonic Tensioner Pulley BROKE OFF!

Back when I was young I was doing e-brake slides with my mom's car and everytime I did it it would trip the traction control and ABS lights since the front wheels would be moving, the rear wheels were locked, and there was nothing the computer could do about it.
