Being that my my the grommet in between the harmonic balancer andf crank is
shot. Might it be time to consider a blower? From what I understand the
flywheel needs to be fused with the crank when a blower is installed..

I reported in earlier posts that my belts on my `98 C5 were squeaking. I
took it to a friend`s shop and he found that the rubber in the harmonic
balancer is all worn and wobbling. He said the belts are old and dry too.
The job is going to cost $679 total, new belts and all. He said it`s a 4
hour job to get the harmonic balancer changed. Does that sound about right?
What gets me is that I just had the car at the dealer and they replaced two
tensioners. They said it needed new belts to stop the squeaking. Why didn`t
they spot the bad harmonic balancer? Can I get away with not replacing it?
What happens when one fails?

Warmest regards,
