The harmonic balancer came off of my 97 Mitsubishi Galant. The local parts store told us it would be $120+ for a replacement, and we can't even get that for a few days.

Any tips on getting it all back together and stay put until we can get a replacement? Putting everything all back together, belts and stuff, is no problem, but staying put is another story.

Sorry if this seems a silly question, I'm not a car person! Just trying to help out my husband.

Thanks!

Can't be done. Hire a cheap car and wait till the part arrives.

the first question is: why did it fall off? was the bolt not torqued property?? you should be able to put it back on with no problems unless it's bent or damaged. If you get it back on, make sure it spins straight and doesn't wobble.
