so about a week ago i started my car in the morning and it ended up me having to order a new harmonic balancer. i shut the car off didnt even drive it. i got the new oem balancer in today and put it on. now the car just cranks and wont start. i already tryed jumping the car . nothing
 
If you had a code scanner you could check for any codes cause if it is the crank sensor you would have a code for it .
 
See I replaced the battery as well which resets the ecu and in turn the codes as well? The only code I got was for the fuel pressure solenoid which I bypassed.
 
He would be better off starting a new thread imo. He asked if the problem was ever resolved.. The last time the op was active was about 7 years ago..
I suggest you start a new thread and give more detail like did you replace the harmonic dampener with a new oem or and aftermarket? Did you check to see if the crank sensor was damaged?
 
Ok so the harmonic balancer rubber wore off and broke so I had replaced the pulley and the two belts attached. I then go to try to start it and my clutch stuck to the floor. I then bleed my clutch and try to start it and it sounds like it wants to start by going to a few hundred rpm then bogging out. I haven't really gotten to really look over the car but this is also my first project car so I'm not 100% where to start just looking for some guidance
