Title: Red motor harmonic balancer Post by: Dave_EH on September 13, 2005, 01:29:15 AM Do all red motors have Harmonic balancers?
I notice a friend's 186 has a large balancer that sits in front (radiator side) of his crank pulley. Mine just seems to have a crank pulley... whats the go? Cheers Dave Title: Re: Red motor harmonic balancer Post by: craiga on September 13, 2005, 02:26:19 AM Dave,
This extra pulley is most likely for power steer or air con. There are also better quality harmonic balancers available for high performance applications. Some guys even used to adapt bigger balancers off other cars. Could you post a photo? Cheers, Craig. Title: Re: Red motor harmonic balancer Post by: SEB on September 13, 2005, 06:49:57 AM Dave,
Here is a rough snap of the standard balancer for standard engine (skinny) and a large modified balancer for a modified engine (fat plus). The standard balancer may have another pulley attached to it. Best regards, Steve. Title: Re: Red motor harmonic balancer Post by: SEB on September 13, 2005, 06:50:42 AM and small
