so i have been hearing some sqeeking coming from my pullys for a while now (month and a half). I finally decided to look under the hood and see what was up and notice that the crank pully was shaking like mad. do i got a wrench on it... no dice, it was tight. I then remove the pully to take a closeer look at it..
when i took the pully off there was a little water (5 drops worth) and alot of dust. I checked behind and there were no fluids leaking. after looking at the crank for a minute i notice that it was oblonged... which is what casused the shaking. The friend/mechanic and i come to the conclusion that water must have seeped in there while i went through some puddles and what not, probably got in through the key way. and started to rust/ and losen the bolt... over time it led to oblonging the hole
The shaking of that pully i think/hope is why my check engine light has been going on and throwing a misfire code... shaking was tipping off the knock sensor..
any of this make sense... Anyone herd of anything like this before? anyone ever have there crank pully hole oblong? this all sounds really weird to me
