Default I win... crank pulley fun...

Well, i was pulling up to a redlight today and my crank pulley went clank clank clank and hit the hood... I thought it was my P/S belt as i lost PS and was in the middle of a busy intersection. I drove about half a mile to pull over and had another clank clank noise... That was my balancer shaft pulley... it fell out as i was pulling over... Ya, can you get better than that? 15,000 miles since the crank pulley has been touched and out of nowhere it dissappears on the road. Its kinda funny to open your hood having both belts still on the accessories and not rotating. BTW, a bit of damage was done to the timing belt as well... That was a since yesterday when i checked the oil kinda thing... Ya, i drove it home and it died on my street... Battery life is about 30 minutes and once it gets sluggish feeling you have about 5 minutes until its dead... YAY 4 me...

eh... it was tightened with an impact gun... That completely negates my lack of muscles... which is a funny subject as well seeing as thats not an issue... OH well, just thought that would be interesting enough for everyone...
