Default Help, I've got some rattling from my crankpulley.

Hey guys, I have a 95 civic with a greddy kit and had some work done to the bottom end(pistons, rods, & posted block). When i got the car back it ran fine for about month. I was running about 6 psi daily(needed to be tuned). Just yesterday I heard some rattling coming from the bottom of the engine bay. I look down to check what it was, which was the crankpulley wobbling just a little making a squeeking noise. I then turned the motor off, reached my hand and grabbed the crank pulley to see if it was loose. The crankpulley moved a little, so i tightened it to where it was'nt loose anymore. I thought this fixed the problem, but when i turned the car back on the squeeking noise was louder then before. It was as if i had made it worse.
Does anybody know whats up? or have had a similar problem?.

any advice is much appreciated. Thanks.

You need to torque it down, dont just tighten it till it doesnt move.
