This part basically has two jobs. First, it dampens vibrations coming from the engine – specifically those twisting vibrations from the crankshaft as it’s firing. Think of the crankshaft as spinning really fast, and each power stroke is like a little hammer hitting it. The damper soaks up those impacts. It also usually has a mark on it that acts like a shield, helping you set the engine timing correctly. It mounts to the very front of the crankshaft. It’s part of what drives things like the water pump and the alternator through a belt, so it's right there at the front of the engine. Everything lines up off of this. Because it's spinning at engine speed, it has to be balanced and reliable. It’s crucial for smooth engine operation. If this thing fails, you’ll notice if it does. You'll feel rough running, maybe a shaking at certain engine speeds. More seriously, those vibrations can damage other components over time – things like the crankshaft seals, the timing cover, even the crankshaft itself. It's a relatively small part for the amount of trouble it can save you. A failing damper can lead to some pretty expensive repairs down the road. We carry a good range of these at Fixparts Online, and getting a new one is a lot cheaper than rebuilding an engine.
