LOL!!! but ye it ddnt couse any problems for me just loud:thumbsup:
The actual harmonic balancer is captured and the two pieces cant come apart and they move when the rubber is buggered and believe it or not are joined on a sealed bearing.The noise is the inner shart steel extension (which normally sits very close to the outer pulley)touching on the outer part of the pulley since there is some movement when the rubber is perished and the harmonics do the rest and make it sound like the thing is going to fly apart off but it cant.As for the crank angle sensor the interrupter rings are mounted on the inner shaft so even if the ballancer is buggered it cant stuff the cas.
