update : balance shaft belt went kplop and got tangled in timing. with NO damage to head or other components. YES!!! currently have timing in pieces awaiting a new timing belt and tensioner. wondering if balance shaft removal is possible with only access to timing side of engine or do i need to yank the whole operation outta there. because if so i would like to pull em now instead of later. someone with some nobility step in and set me straight. thx guys.

this is the second time ive had to leave a motor like this due to my lack of funds. first was my auto awd with a fully balanced motor so i couldn't feel a thing. the bastard had like 5k on the motor and the shaft siezed. LAME! but ne ways this one i cant feel a difference at all either as far as vibrations, and for right now i have an inconsistent idle but i believe its due to crappy denso plugs and the timing be a tad off. o yeah and a leaky intercooler that i still havent replaced.
