Fluidampr Steel Harmonic Damper - Honda B-series
Every time a cylinder fires, the connecting rod hammers the crankshaft, making it twist as well as spin. After every twist, there's a rebound as the crank unwinds. This twist/rebound cycle is known as torsional vibration, and if it is not controlled, it will result in rapid bearing and crank journal wear. Undamped torsional vibrations can also lead to a broken crankshaft.
If any engine work has been done which changes the rotating or reciprocating mass, the stock damper will no longer be properly tuned. Installing a Fluidampr or Streetdampr will dampen all destructive torsional engine vibrations providing maximum protection for vital engine components.
The rubber or elastomer ring in stock dampers typically starts to degrade after approximately 5 years. The most obvious sign of a problem with the stock damper is movement of the inertia ring, which can cause inaccurate timing settings. If this movement continues unchecked, there is a good possibility the ring could actually come off, potentially causing engine compartment damage.
Today's high RPM sport compact engines need high performance dampers. Don't let anyone sell you a pulley to replace a damper. If you do, you might as well buy an extra crank.
