It is a known fact that your internal combustion engine needs the support of your transmission components to go about its normal operating functions. They produce torque that leads to constant speeds—but the generated torque may not be smooth. This can lead to vibration along the axis of vibration of your engine. If this is not dampened, the resulting effect could be failed engine crankshafts, misaligned shafts, as well as worn out gears. For this reason, your car has been equipped with a torsional dampener to prevent these damaging vibrations on your engine compartment.

There are a number of torsional dampeners installed on your car, and one of these is the Acura Integra harmonic balancer. This car component can be usually seen attached on the front part of your engine crankshaft. In simple terms, your Acura Integra harmonic balancer serves the main role of reducing the torsional vibrations of your engine. But more than that, this torsional dampener aids in prolonging your engine's service life. As it reduces torsional vibration, your engine is prevented from damaging its journals and main bearings.

Your Acura Integra harmonic balancer is also known as a crank pulley damper, vibration damper, or torsional damper. Just like your other car components, the harmonic balancer cannot function effectively if one or more of its sub components are not in perfect working condition. A typical Acura Integra harmonic balancer is made up of three distinct components—the outer part which includes the timing marks, the center rubber ring, and the inner part that is mounted to the crankshaft.

As a unit, your Acura Integra harmonic balancer serves as energy and mass dissipating component. As an energy dissipating component, it effectively absorbs the torsional vibrations. On the other hand, as a mass dissipating component, your Acura Integra harmonic balancer resists the acceleration of torsional vibration. This car component is constantly exposed to heat, cold, chemicals and oil—so the energy dissipating material may deteriorate eventually.

If you do not want to be inconvenienced by the damaging effects of torsional vibration, then replace your car's worn out Acura Integra harmonic balancer immediately.
