I looked at it again, and it was the idler pulley. It was wobbling and groaning and squealing, so I just cut the AC belt until I can deal with it.
But then I noticed the harmonic balancer was wobbling too. It only wobbles at idle though, at higher rpm's it's straight.
So I'm wondering, is wobbling at idle normal and if so how much wobble is too much? It looks like it is wobbling too much to me, but I don't know for sure. If it's not wobbling at higher rpm's, does that mean it's in no danger of failing in the immediate future?
Thanks a lot for any insight into this.
