I just replaced the crabkshaft pulley on my 1999 Accord for the SECOND time after it fell off while driving the car. The first time it fell off at 65K miles. I bought the car new, did all the required maintenance myself, and had NEVER touched that assembly. I had to replace the pulley and the key as it destroyed both. Lucky for me the crank appeard to be in OK shape. I torqued the *@%$ out of it with a 1100 ft/lb 3/4" pnematic impact wrench and thought I was "done". I thought I was done with it, but, 20 months later (yesterday), it happended again. This time I used super high stength locktite and replaced the bolt as well. However, I am nervous something else is wrong and that this will keep happening. I had some questions I was hoping someone could help me with: * Has anybody ever heard of this problem? * Does anyone know how far the snout of the crankshaft is supposed to be recessed relative to the solder on the crankshaft pulley that the bolt sits on (when fully seated)? I have an 1/8 gap there when the pulley is fully seated and am wondering if this is the problem. * Is the crankshaft supposed to be splined? There are splines in the pulley and I am wondering if there are supposed to be mating splines in the crankshaft that were stripped off by the loose pulley. Any advice is appreciated. -Jeff
