I have gotten myself a Sirometer (VibroTach) and I am trying to chase down a nasty vibration my 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS-T has. I was wondering if anyone new the ratio of Crankshaft turns to Balance shaft turns that occurs in a 4G63T. I am going to attempt to diagnose my vibration before ripping apart either side of the motor AGAIN. I replaced the clutch and had the flywheel turned and noticed a vibration. I then suspected a broken balance shaft belt and ripped that side apart. I found everything was intact in the Timing belt area. I was told there is a possiblity that the front shaft could be out of alignment even tho I went through a complete revolution until the rear shaft marks lined up and a screwdriver would go in the hole in the back of the block. I am starting to suspect a out of balance flywheel/pressure plate. Please Help before I drive this pearl orange turd off a cliff.

balance shafts turn twice for every one revolution of the crank, i'd just pull them suckers out :thumb:
 
Make sure you dont just PULL them out and do it the right way! Go to vfaq.com and it will say everything you need for the project. Even part numbers!

Um... that's for the rear shaft. The front just has a mark you line up.
