W114 69 230
Shaking motor

Hi I have just joined mbworld. About a year ago I purchased a 69 230.

My issue is the engine is shaking and I noticed there's no harmonic balancer. What year harmonic balancers is compatible? Thanks

We need more information.
Shaking is going to be from things like misfire etc. Missing balancer? So there is nothing there? Just a stub?

The crank pulley is there but the balancer is missing according to the pics of other motors I've seen. It's a 2 piece pulley The motor smokes a little bit under acceleration I have replaced spark plugs, adjusted valves and replaced all 3 mounts

But the engine still shakes and the vibration is shaking the front wheels sitting at idle.
