Default Wobbly Crank hub?
Was just outside looking at my engine and thinking about removing my iac for cleaning when i noticed that my crank shaft hub or balancer? was wobbly. Then engine was relatively immobile so i am fairly certain that the wobbling is isolated to the crank hub. is this normal? and what might cause it? bent crank?

If the pulley and damper were wobbling tighten the four bolts; it it was just the damper, replace the damper as it has likely separated.
