                  hello

                  eric i thought about that BUT impact would over torque the bolt and break it don’t you think? the book calls for it to be torque to 94 – 120 ftlbs

                  also the squeaking noise was the belt to just to let everyone know

                    ok get the new one in wow thats not fun!!!!! hard to hold the crank from turning when u r tighting the bolt down!!!!! any tips on that for next time..lol

                    runs alot better i do hear a squeaking nosie that goes away once the engine is warmed up i’ am thinking its the belt itself

                      yes it is a BAD harmonic balancer the rubber is cracked AND was the bolt was remove it came apart in 3 pieces!!! which as y’all know it shouldn’t do that!

                      I have a new one and the timing cover seal on order i figure might as well replaced that sense i have it apart!!!

                      so hopefully it will go back together ok!!!! lol

                        yes Eric i was thinking that to only problem is its one big belt so its hard to find what is causing the trouble

                        I hope Saturday its nice out and i can check it more

                            the fan is electric to Inspect the balancer looks like i will have to pull the pulley off to see the balancer right???? if that is the case to do that is alot of work if iam going to do that i migh as well replace it..

                                beefy – that is what i thought if the belt is off i should still here the noise ya its not a vibration its a noise its weird

                                i hope the weather gets better so i can look at it again….. iam pulling my hair out on this!!!!! lol

                                as for the other thread yes i did sorry about that i couldn’t find the thread so i started a new one 🙁 but i will do what what u say in the future

                                on a side note i did find some info

                                iam thinking iam going to have to pull the pulley off so i can look at the harmonic balancer or maybe a mirror not much room there thats for sure!!!!

                                  I can try to make a video as for the water pump i did check it…it seems find however its hard to get in there

                                  if it was the balancer it should make nosie with the belt off right???
