Hey all, I noted a knocking sound in my engine bay and when I went to take a look I saw my crankshaft pulley wobbling all over the place and a loose bolt in the bracket right behind said pulley. I tightened the bolt and put loctite on it but the pulley is still wobbling, and I believe the knocking sound is the pulley hitting the bracket behind it as it spins.
Here’s a video:
It’s tough to see down there at night so guess I’m wondering the best next step and what caused it (I think the loose bolt threw the bracket off and then the pulley bearing went bad). Do I just replace the whole pulley or is there something that can be tightened up or a bearing to replace?
