94Z28LS1toLT1

Hey guys I noticed when i was running my engine my serpentine belt was like wobbly,so I took it off n noticed it's ripped a bit like at the end it,n peeled like a twizzler.

I noticed what caused it was the harmonic balancer is chipped n part of it has Sharp edges n that's why the belt is bad.

so I'm trying to get the balancer off so I can get a new one put on,n I'm having a hard time getting the part off,I'm using the harmonic balancer removal tool to get it off n no luck any better tools u guys know of

I don't know if the 94 Z28 has the same pulley as the 95, but does it look like this in Shbox photo, if so maybe this will help.

Never mind I managed to get it off ok I'll need a different balancer, i was thinking about trying to get one from a wreck yard,or if you guys know where I can get one

you can buy a new replacement Damper at most auto part store. Doorman likely the cheapest

Number: 594-017

You don't need to replace or remove the hub from the crank...just 3 bolts for the Damper

thank u chimera that's exactly wat I did was the three bolts lol. Yea I nudge it off after the three bolts,i ended up finding one at a wreck yard in good condition for 6 dollars. I had an annoying squeak coming from belt,no more now.

Usually there is a bit of rust built up on the hub...you should probably yank the balancer back off and clean the hub and the balancer. You'll get longer belt life that way....

thank u bw hunter I did that to before putting the belt on,belts running smooth now and straight.
