Take it over to ACG.. Have them look at it, ask for Sean or Tal...

pretty hard to tell as the engine is running, but the clack its making sounds like the plate is loose.You can be sure by taking the belt off and spinning and feeling it with your hand. Try if the plate is loose or not, it should be "solid" a little bending movement only when you push it towards the magnetic clutch.

Common failure. They all come from the same vendor

Before you all jump on the bashing bandwagon, look at his other post with the 2mm+ gap.

Who knows if it's even pushed on all the way. MY SC pulley is over 1 year old with thousands of miles...no problem....likely because it was installed PROPERLY.

i think its just good to report the issues with this pulley...the fabricator will make ajustement to resolve all problem ... its still recent mod that needs more testing

when the bearing goes, the pulley can tweak a bit and not be linear in rotation - my guess it that you need a new bearing, pretty cheap solution...

if one of the springs is broken, talk to the vendor

If the pulley is new then the bearing shouldn't go bad either.

From multiple threads I've seen the general consensus was that the gap need to be anywhere

between .35-.45 mm.

Over and under could cause problems.

After multiple failures the second gen S/C pulley has different springs and all.

That's what I've read.

When a bearing is bad does the lil rubber thing that holds it has to come off ? It happend to me befor and on this one its still intact but ill replace it just in case

No the rubber in front does not have to come off.. Mine looked perfect but it was bad sounded like a diesel
