Default ASP pulley problem/question

I was under my car today and noticed the ASP pulley is wobbling slightly at an idle. but when the RPM is increased The wobble dissapears. also it sounds like there is a ticking/clicking noise comming from that area. anyone have any ideas?

my asp pulley wobbles too, you can still see it when you bring the rpm's up though.
probably just looks like it stops wobbling b/c of the increased speed

Just make sure the bolt is really tight. It's a torque to yield set up so I can't give you a spec, but be sure it's good and tight. The ticking noise is probably from the idler pulley, not the ASP.

I thought LSD went out of style back in the 60's. If your ASP pulley wobbles at low speed, but mystically fixes itself as the RPMs are increased you better bottle that stuff. You may want to swap that 60 watt lite bulb for a 100 watter. It's too bad Timothy Leary is dead. I'll be he'd like to try something that makes things appear to wobble on his yearly trek to the fields of ambrosia.

I am totally lost on what that means.
