So I just popped my factory 100k plus mile partly separated? Pulley off, popped my fluidamper pulley on.
First fire up I notice less engine noise.. That's weird, probably good.
First Drive I notice my lug spot is less noticeable by 50% at least. What I mean is when you hit lug rpm in my car (it was bad) like if you stay in 3rd and slow down too much it would hit it and if you accelerated from a low 3rd gear rpm to go faster it would fall on its face and lug.
It's almost not even noticeable now?!? I'm really sure my car was harmonically messed up and it just changed the feel of driving my car.
My balance shafts are still in but have been disabled. I also noticed smoother shifting and I understand that the balance shaft delete can cause more clutch vibration.. I think it is possible that my pulley had some separation going on it wasn't doing much good for my engine or clutch or anything.
My car feels like a smoother different car this is weird. Not lugging is weird. Was my factory harmonic balancer a lot worse off than I realized?
