Ask Me,
Virginia
This is one of the first times that I have ever seen a DSM with a Balance Belt in my life, everyone has always done the job before me. I am going to eliminate the balance shafts on my 7 bolt 94 laser at some point.
I am in the process of pulling the head on this car due to a problem it has. I am about to start removing tensioners.
My question is: Can I just remove/discard the balance belt during this process without having to *think* about anything else or the future BSE for now? I am just being cautious. I don't want to knock anything internal out of wack by removing it while pulling the head.
I don't really know how the balance shafts work and really don't care to at this time. There is so much wrong with this car that I just want to stay focused on head replacement at this time.
If I can just pull the Balance Belt off and not *think* about anything, would it be step 26 of my writeup, e.g. after step 24 or 25 e.g. do I have to get the pistons at TDC first?
