Default wabbling crank pulley?

i don't usually start help threads, im usually the one giving advice!


almost forgot, its a 95 eg 4 door. d15b7 im sure...

but the prob is,the crank pulley is wobbling about 3 mm every time it goes around (which seems to be pretty common from all the searching i have done so far) it seems like someone just did the timing belt and it feels a tooth off cause its slow as fuck and i can tell when its a tooth off and all the cover bolts look fresh like someone just did it....

but anyways, its too late now to take video of it so i prob will tomorrow before i tear it all apart...im just looking for ideas right now, if anyone has seen this..heres what i got so far from not taking it apart yet

1) maybe someone installed it crooked and cranked the bolt down with it crooked

2)somethings wrong with the woodruff key, like installed wrong

3)the worst case like i have seen before, it could have chipped the crank or something like that...(hopefully not)


but idk...but i have seen this a lot and will let you guys know what happens when i tear it all down tomorrow and maybe we can all learn something from it! lol but i dont want her driving it anymore with it like that and making shit worse with the kids being in the car. so that's the first order of business among a lot of other bullshit things that were all ghetto half assed done...


but i will be updating this tomorrow with pics and prob vids before and after and hopefully its not too fucked up..

also, the ac belt is not tight enough at all either, and ive seen them wobble a little if the belts are pulling it too tight in certain directions...but it needs all new belts anyways so while i have them all off, im gonna go ahead and tear all the crank pulley bolt and all the shit behind it and see whats up and ill keep you guys updated....maybe i can help someone else..


but if anyone has any input (positive is always welcomed!) like shit i could miss or shit to look out for...

thanks guy....sorry for the long read, just wanted to make sure i covered everything thoroughly.....but ill let you know what happens tomorrow!


thanks fellas!
