a mass of balanced steel bolted onto the front end of the crank shaft for a smoother running engine
Harmonic balancers have nothing to do with engine overheat conditions.

Yes, a bad harmonic balance can cause knocking in an engine. Harmonic balance refers to the distribution of forces and vibrations within the engine, and if it's not properly balanced, it can lead to excessive vibrations. These vibrations can result in knocking or pinging, as they may cause the engine components to misalign or operate inefficiently. Proper maintenance and calibration of the harmonic balancer are essential to prevent such issues.
Yes.
possably it could be out of time.
Because the timing is advanced.
which way do you turn the harmonic balancer bolt on a 95 geo tracker to loosen it
you buy a pulley grabber kit, make sure you get one large enough to fit over the harmonic balance. but be careful not to damage it, harmonic balances are expensive to replace.
Hi the harmonic balance weight prevents the shaft from flexing into an elliptical rotational pattern. staying straight and true and rotating within its axis is the name of the game in drive shaft performance. hope this helps
If you look at the harmonic balance you will see on the front of it a medium size circle. That will be your timing mark.
The moment of harmonic rest in a vibrating system is called equilibrium position. It is the position where the restoring force is zero and the system is in a state of balance.
