Heres one for the mechanical minded?

Little while ago "my 4age flywheel bolts were loose" (jes i wonder who might've caused that)

and ive noticed lately that my main pulley on the front of engine has a very distinctive wooble in it.

Please satisfy my couriosity, am i right to assume that maybe the crank is buggered/bent/bowed/on its way out and maybe need replacing/regrinding or wateva

Cheers

i doubt the crank is bent. Crank pulleys sometimes have a wobble (my sr20 oem had one), especially if its a 2 part with the outer ring being pressed into a rubber spacer. Theyre usually designed this way to reduce vibration but can end up looking wobbly when theyre spinning, especially with overtightened belts.
