nkx Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 i notice a wobble coming from the power steering pump pulley. im not 100% sure if its the pulley, or the shaft, but im leaning very heavily towards the pulley. looks like it moves about 1/8" from true. would there be any risks with continuing to use this pulley?

Not too much risk, but you should fix it before you throw a belt or cause more damage to the P/S pump. The pulley spokes are weaker than the P/S shaft and if it's wobbling it most likely caused by a distorted pulley (not too uncommon). Find yourself a pulley at the local junkyard and replace; easiest fix. If you're good with a small hammer, you might be able to straighten out the pulley. Just make sure there's no wobble in the shaft first....rare, but not impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
