little chunks of the "rubber material" betweent the aluminum part and ballencer part flaking off when you bought it? Just curious mine is like this in a few spots.

Thanks, mrNOS

 

yes, even stranger is that when I went under the car for its regular inspection the crank seal is seeping oil now and there were lots of little pieces of rubber around the crank area (from the pulley or belt??).. Im taking it in to have a better look on the lift <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

 

Mine wasn't like that. No oil leak, either. That's weird.

 

I replaced my crank seal when I installed the pulley. It's a known problem that it'll leak after a pulley install. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">
