Don't know what you're talkin about Muzy, never had a wobble or ticking noise, in fact nothing warning at all just stopped.Muzy;1211423 said:I think you found that ticking noise. Was the wobble issue ever addressed? I think this
failure is related, from previous post. muzy
Good question, I checked that first and it's spins freely, I can turn it by hand. I think I'm going to put a drill on it and make sure I have oil pressure though.grimreaper;1211438 said:holy shit! it was wobbling before this happened? does the pump spin freely with a socket on the pulley bolt?
I use the wood handle of my wire brushgrimreaper;1211454 said:what is the correct way to prevent the pulley from moving to tq it? i am guilty of this too!

If you mark any of the spokes during assembly it will fail as the pully is "sintered"
For those that don't know what that means they take Metal powder and compress it into a mold of the part add heat and LOTS of pressure and out pops a 99% finished part. (The infamous r154 thrust washers are made the same way)
During assembly/disassembly people often wedge the pully with a screwdriver so they can torque up the bolt and this in turn marks the spoke creating a stress riser (think lines on toilet paper)

I have seen the special pulley holding tool in parts stores before, but it's kinda expensive for something so simple.
I've heard of these pulleys failing at high RPM as well...

Nah...I figured that was it.Muzy;1211536 said:Opps, my sincerest apologies, that was a different person and a different prob. I will double check next time. No hard feelings I hope. Sorry. muzy:icon_bigg
