crank pulley?!
So I noticed that after I tightened my bolts, the vibration has gradually gotten worse again. I looked at it with the engine running and it was shaking pretty badly. Today I decided, with the help of the weather, to actually pull it off and see if it was damaged somehow. Well the vibration, I'm assuming from the loose bolts, actually wore away the bolt holes. They're no longer round. It has pushed the little key on the timing belt pulley back into pulley, therefore it's not really being held in place. Definitely time for a new pulley.
If you're having the same issues, you might wanna get it checked out!

The "lightweight" pulleys will do more damage than they are worth.

I had a issue like this a few months ago but my problem turned out to be something differnt.
My A/C motor bracket broke which then put the A/C pulley at an angle making the blet jump all the grooves and led to the belt fraying. We didn't find this out until I went through another belt within a few days. Then we looked at what was going on closer and found it right away. SO we just used a A/C delete belt and left it the way it was for the time being.
problem solved.

I ordered a fluidampr. I wanted to get one anyways, just not right before Christmas. Hopefully I get the aluminum version. I asked for it, hopefully they realized that, and that's what I get. Either way, I'll be happy.
I checked the belt and it looks good.
