Default Blower removal question
I removed the blower kit today. If the balancer was pinned can I just leave it that way? Anything else I need to do besides remove parts and vacume line?

Balancer should have no affect. What kit do you have?

Pending on who you are selling to, you may want to let them know the crank was pinned in case the want to go FI etc... If you are trading in, say nothing.
