The bolt is 7/16-20.

I would recommend that you purchase a heli-coil kit or similar instead of drilling oversize.

It's a permanent solution that would allow you to use the correct bolt and increase the strength of the new thread.

How do you install a harmonic balancer on a Buick Century?

I just use the crankshaft bolt to squeeze it back on. Just line up the groove in the harmonic balancer to the key in the crankshaft and slip it on until it's snug. Screw in the crankshaft bolt and tighten it down. The more you tighten, the more it will push the harmonic balancer. Warning! The crankshaft bolt must screw in freely at least five or six turns before you can begin tightening it. If the bolt ain't long enough then you will have to find one the same size, but just a little longer or you could face an unholy nightmare if you strip the bolt out. Use the long one if you have to to get the balancer pushed on a bit. Then, switch back to the original bolt and finish tightening. Good Luck and Good Day!


What is harmonic imaging?

The article in the related link describes how harmonic imaging is used in ultrasound devices. Basically, you transmit at one frequency, but listen for one of the harmonic frequencies (a whole-number multiple of the original frequency: according to the article, usually the 2nd harmonic, which is double the original frequency - so if the original frequency is 20,000 Hz, then you are listening in the 40,000 Hz range)


Where is the camshaft position sensor located on a 1995 Ford Escort 1.9?

on the harmonic balancer you must remove the harmonic balancer and the sensor is inside The *Camshaft* (not the crankshaft) position sensor is located on the driver-side of the head on the firewall-side of the engine; possibly near the fuel injectors as the harness comes from the same wire-wrapping. You *will* need to remove the intake manifold in order to insert a replacement sensor. (you can cut the original for removal) Cam position sensors are usually very reliable however... may want to verify that there is not a short and that the wiring harness connectors are clean in addition to manually testing the sensor with a voltage meter and cranking the engine. Removing an inake manifold can be an uneeded hassle. The intake manifold's gasket keeps coolant in the head. The crankshaft position sensor by the way is located between 10 and 11 o'clock relative to the crankshaft damper (aka harmonic balancer). It may be accessed and replaced without removal of any engine parts.

How do you install a harmonic balancer in a vr commodore?

what is a vr commodore? If it is an automobile it willl be like any other. Yo first have to gain access to it, (located on the end of the crank) Remove the radiator after you drain it, the serpentine belt and then use an impact gun heavy enough to supply at least 250 pounds of torque. Find out wich size bolt the balancer has in the center (15/16,3/4?) use an impact socket to turn the bolt out. Now get a harmonic balancer pulley Take the arms of the pulley to the outer edges of the balancer and the bolt on the pulley will go into the center of the pulley. Run the impact inward, wich will pull the pulley outword and it will fall off. NOTE: there may be a windrift key in there Place the new balancer on the end of the crank and line up with the windrift key , start by pushing inplace, tap with a hammer, then use the original bolt and impact and as you screw the bolt in the balancer will come with it. Tap the key back in place and give it a good looking ove to make sure the balancer is all the way ddown. Repklace the belts, install and fill the radiator, make sure he radiator gets burped for any air in the system,(fill it and run till temp comes up) after a coll down period, pop the radiator cap and top off again.
