No, don't sell it. The balancers on your year are known to have issues. The seal seperates and you just need to swap in a new one. If you have vibrations right after that than there might be another issue but I doubt thats the case

$117? Damn... Should have posted you needed help. I would've done it for $20.

$117 ![[Eek!]](eek.gif) OE balancers tend to be iffy on quality. That guy who is telling you to sell your car from that problem is crazy. Did it just come loose? vibrations? Next time, get a Romac/ATI with a ARP bolt and some Loc-tite to keep that from happening again. Some peeps on here would have done it for a fraction of that and some beer LOL.
