what does a balance shaft remover do and how do i install one pics

YellowSteel · Sep 7, 2005

A balance shaft remover removes the balance shafts, and it would likely be your hands + some tools. As for installing your hands and 'pics' into your engine, I don't think that would do anything.

wouldnt that make the crank spinunbalanced and out of control

aerostudent · Sep 7, 2005

absolutely not.

inline 4 cylinder motors are self balancing as long as the rods and pistons are of the same what and the crank is rotationally balanced.

balance shafts dampen the inherent external vibrations of the motor. with a i4 at a point during the rotation cylinder's 1 and 4 are halfway down/up and 2 and 3 are halfway up/down. at that moment it produces the small vibration that the balance shafts are trying to cancel.

I have been without BS for months now and have no complaints.

nope not at all. it counter rotates to smooth out vibrations felt in the cabin. I have had it on, or off depending how you think about it, for over 25,000 miles now with no problems

No it won't. But I see a 6 page discussion that's going to lead nowhere happening.

The Balance shafts have nothing to do with balance. It's a name given to them by engineers because they had nothing better to do. Basically they are vibration reduction shafts. They make the car idle smoother. That's all. And they also add rotational mass and weight. They are useless becauset removing them only makes the idle slightly rougher.

Everything, only difference is going to the exhaust. You'll need to make sure you have long enough for the sedan.

MrTea · Sep 8, 2005

one quick question, way back then he had the UDP as well as the BS deleted...i've heard that's not a good idea. did i hear this after this install, i would assume so? i'm thinking about testing out the udp on my car, but with BS already deleted and the new turbo i've hesitated. any updates on info there??
