i recently changed my crank pulley to a asp crank pulley.during the install i accidendly broke that little tab that the crank pulley goes into.would it effect anything ?
the key on the crank? yes if that isnt there then that pully will just spin on the crank
woodruff key? if so than yes u do like gandza said the pully will just spin. you can make another 1.
broke it? no way… that part circle - woodruff key is a seperate piece
it just sits in the slot… then the pulley slides over it locking its position
thanks guys.i am off to homedepot or lows to find one.if not i will just go to nissan
home depot?
woodruff key?
:S
yeah i woodruff key. i found one at lows but it was a bit big.so i filed it down
so this is a balanced part you guys understand that right… if you broke it go to Nissan and get a new one. or else youll have crank vibrations that overtime can fuck up the engine.
what he said
^ agreed. Even a little bit off from factory spec and it’ll cause mad problems at higher rpms. I doubt that it could cost that much anyways?
would the same thing happen if you chipped a stock pulley? like chipped a piece off the pulley, the thin part that is on either side of the belt
im pretty sure it would be unbalenced
a new crank key is like $3 at nissan…
haha, home depot. Your awesome.
Brand new one from Nissan is dirt cheap. I got a new one last year.
