I figured I would ask here before heading over to the Toyota newsgroups.
The car is a 1994 Camry, with approximately 170,000 miles. It has been squealing from the belt area, and I thought it was the A/C compressor pulley. Wrong pulley, this is the main drive pulley.
The belts came off and the crank pulley is on at an angle. It is attached with one bolt, which is still tight, but the metal has separated and only the outer ring is loose. (harmonic balancer?).
I was able to push it back into place, but obviously it will not hold.
This car was getting very close to the replacement period, it put in a good 15 years. This repair looks like an engine pull at the minimum, and the pulley itself isn't going to be cheap.
Is it time to have her hauled away or has anyone come up with an easy fix that I am not thinking of?
Nope, not gonna part this one out. I only tear down Miatas......
