    crooked crank pulley (wobbling)

    so I did my 60k service. pump timing belt etc.


    Now when I started the car my ac and powersteering belt got eaten up before i realized what was going on. it seems to be because of a wobbling crank pulley...


    I dont understand why it's crooked because it was fine before. And yes i did check it was tightened. Tightened it down with a tool in the two holes. Did i crank it too hard(over 140nm) ?? or is the whole crank crooked???

    Did the pulley sit on the pin on the crank sprocket right? Is the pulley starting to separate?

    Not seated properly on the dowel pin would be my guess, but the pulleys are known to separate given time and mileage. I'd pull it back off and double check that stuff before going anywhere with it.

    omg I'm such a tard... You guys where on the money with the pin!

    I´m pretty sure that was it. Reinstalled it now. No wobble but no belts on though. Thank god the pin wasn't mashed up too much.

    Two ruined belts but lesson learned. Atleast the timing belt went well and that's the most important. And now I know how to do the 60k myself
