Ah ok so I wouldnt notice a duff damper pulley in normal running just a broken crank?

I fear not, johny, that's the problem!  On my phone, else I would post a link to my Courier paper.

Im nervous because Ive done away with the fan boss and used by own spacer and large washer to hold the pulley on! This was to make more space for an electric rad fan but maybe I should go back to standard....

[Pete Lewis]

tis the time to be merry not worry

if the fan flies off you will get a warning sound  followed by some staining

Ha, if I was cleverer Id work out the kinetic energy produced in Johns pulley-flying-off-at-4000rpm scenario to really worry myself! Wonder if it could get through the bonnet🤔

we had metal truck fans escape blades piercing through the floor and out via the roof   Nasty things .

on my rotating damper we tried to refill with butyl rubber  but its hopeless keeping the accurate concentricity   and if the bonding fails the ring cant escape  

diameters interfere  by the time we had parted the two it was a mend to destruction exercise 

so sleep easy
