What makes a harmonic balancer go bad on a 1983 chevy silverado 305 v-8?

You'll need to remove the crankshaft pulley and the harmonic balancer, which you'll need a harmonic balancer removal tool. The center bolt is usually on really tight. You can use a seal puller to remove the crankshaft seal from the timing cover.

It can go bad from the seal in the timing chain cover rubbing the outer diameter of the balancer shaft and causing a deep groove,or it has lost the rubber o-ring that is between the main body and the outer body throwing it out of balance and not repairable
