I posted a up couple of close up pictures at
http://stephenhorrillo.com/C5_harmonic_balancer.htm. Let me know what you
think. Notice the gap, the cracking rubber and the way it`s pushed in on one
side and hanging out on the other. If you need pictures with a higher
resolution or a movie of it spinning let me know.
Should I replace it? If I just replace the belts should the squeaking stop?
When I spray belt dressing on the main belt the sqeaking stops for a little
while but there`s still a sort of rattleling sound.

Many thanks Dad and everyone,

I`m not sure if that last post went through. I posted a photo of my
allegedly bad harmonic balance. Please take a look and tell me what you
think. http://stephenhorrillo.com/C5_harmonic_balancer.htm
Thanks for your help.

Warmest regards,

As Dad had been suffering much itching and discomfort, moved his belly
out of the way, fished around and finally found "Lil Dad", looked down
and uttered....

Last "Cars" Post on Wordpress:
Title: Home.
Date: Sat, 26 Sep 2009 01:32:58 +0000
Author: Gabriel
Decided to go home today. Found my camera that I’ve been meaning to either put on Craigslist or find a friend to buy it off of me. Money is a bit tight these days.
Went home today to see that there is a deck being built. I thought it was something super simple, but man was I wrong.
Pretty gnarly. More on: http://safegabe.com/2009/09/25/home/

Title: 11 Trivial Inventions We all Need Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2009 13:40:35 +0000 Author: ophirk  Square Egg 1. How come we can send a man to the moon, but can’t detect when the car tire is under pressured ? I Just found out that I was driving on 16PSI instead of 32PSI. Same for oil level.Same for car battery.
 Funny Cat On Tire 2. Automatic shirt ironing machine. Can be built using nano-technology or little robotic ants, as far as I’m concerned.
 A shirt-ironing machine from Siemens 3. Full text indexing for PC’s. I uninstalled Google desktop last week. It just does not work.
4. A way to get my cell phone SMS and voicemail in my email account. Please, Pretty please. Willing to pay. More on: http://ophir.wordpress.com/2009/09/25/11-trivial-inventions-we-all-need/
