From idle to 1500-2000 rpm the outer section (black rubber portion) of the DMD exhibits a slight waver/wobble it's rotation. From 2000 rpm on up, the thing "trues up"...is this normal? Will the waver at idle be detrimental over the long run?

Never heard it since.. 98 GL sport (V6 MTX) The Durable Duratec? - (DMD, Metal impeller WaterPump, Synth & Stinky in the tranny)

Bueller?...Anyone ? Thanks! 2004 Velocity Red RX-8 Racing Beat Intake and Exhaust Grand Touring Package Red/Black Leather Fender Strakes Rotary Accents Xenon HID's *Bose
