Quick response please! Harmonic balancer
My 1988 gmc 1 ton has a nasty vibration while driving down the road. It gets worse with speed. At first i thought it was the u-joints, but I replaced them and its still there. The vibration goes away when I pull the truck out of gear and let it coast. Also the vibration isn't constant but seems to be rythmatic with the engine rpms. Is it possible the balancer could be going? How do I check it? Engine only has 50000 miles on it.
Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
