Parts needed for a FEMALE OWNER! - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

We have a female Z owner that needs parts......

She has a 1990 and in need of a balancer & belt tensioner.

Anyone who has info that would be great to pass on!

What is wrong with the old balancer?

Would that be Barbara?

Saw the car yesterday at the Corvette drags.
When idling I could noticeably see the belt pulley wobble (lot of axial run out) on the balancer.
Iâ€™ve never seen one of these balancers up close.
Does anyone know how the belt pulley is attached to the balancer?

It's one piece. Well it's two pieces, it has a rubber isolator, but it's basically one piece.

And if it is out of balance, you would know it, the car would vibrate really bad.

Motor has to come out to swap it..

Is this "Female Owner" White, Black, Brown, Asian or other? I mean, come on....this should have been removed by the Mod's, for its title. I wish this person all the luck in the world in finding the parts...but...I think someone here is stepping way over the politically correct effort... I will most likely get hell for the above...but I am sorry...this is no way to ask for help...Next post will say she is a blonde.... If Tony was involved...he did his best with what he had available to him...please don't beat this man up over a "Female Owner" issue.....pahleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeese!

David, I agree with Greg. It was enough info that a ZR-1 owner needs help. Adding to the fact that she was female was pointless to the thread.
