I recently changed out my Unorthodox Racing pulley with OEM honda pulleys on a 98 accord lx I4 (5 Speed)
Because the pulley was wobbling ( you can actually see the Crank pulley wobble when u pop the hood) i thought putting back the original OEM pulleys

would stop this ..but it didnt..Im thinking maybe my crankshaft is bent...any ideas as to how much this costs to fix or how dificult it is ..keep in mind in not by far a car expert..

Ive been troubleshooting this problem for almost 3 months now any help is appreciated ..BTW i searched but didnt find anything that really applied to what is happening with my situation .

Thanks!

 

if your crank was bent the entire engine would be fucked

 

what else could it be then ..i mean i can literally see the crank pulley wobbling it looks like its about to fall of or something....and this is when its Idling ....

 

Anyone?

 

pull the plugs and give it a turn with a ratchet hold a tape measure to a fixed area and see if there is really a wobble.....somtimes its an illusion. if anything was bent your engine wouldn't run and if does you would hear abnormal noises and if it was the bearing it would be a constant loud ticking. what is the history of your engine?

 

you could just swap out the crank if no other damage has been on(rod bearings and main bearings). you need to pull the motor to get it done properly.

 

took it to a honda dealership they say its a bent crank...i took it to 3 diffrent mechanics and they say its the crank also ..so i guess im f-d..o well ive been saving up for a h22 swap anyways so i guess this will just make me speed that up...thanx for all the help i really appreciate it
