How many keys in LS crank keyway??
I've got a 99' Integra LS. I took off the crank pulley and crank gear last night to find that i had 2 small keys in the keyway for the crank gear/crank pulley. Is that right? Isn't it supposed to be one long key that runs through the crank gear & pulley?

It's supposed to be just one key. Someone lost the original one, and stuck some other ones in there. Just get a new one from the dealer. I'm sure it's cheap.
Edit: Come to think of it, I think the crank gear doesn't need a key, and there's just one small key for the crank pulley.

i'm used to working on H series motors... never really worked on a B before
i thought the same thing about only needing one key for the pulley.... but when i pulled off the pulley and gear there were 2 keys
this is what my crank gear looks like

Carland Acura shows the key in the diagram and says there are 2 required.
#19 in this pic. I can only find 1 in the diagram but it says 2 required in the list.

[b]*edit it says only 1 required for my 94 GS-R, so it probably changed when they changed the design of the crank sprocket. My car uses the inset picture of the sprocket with 2 separate guide washers.
