Unhappy Well it isn't good when you can spin the crank pulley bolt

With your fingers to take it out. Tonight I fig I would change my front seal since the last blown belt ruined it, change the pan gasket also, cause it was leaky.. Went to put the socket on the bolt, it spun effortlessly, like no it was just sitting in there,then I removed it with my fingers.. I am going to pull the pulley off now, pray to the man that it didn't *** the end of the crank up, but my luck it did.. That may be the reason im puking belts... Keep ya fingers crossed for me guys... I will post back fo sho

yeah, the belt thing may be solved. Are you pinning it? Most stories end good if it comes loose from the front. I lost a thrust bearing...that story ended bad.
