====================================

If the bolt is working loose, you'll have HUGE trouble shortly. If it
was a non-honda dealer and they didn't use the correct tool to lock up
the pulley when removing the bolt, they may have shredded the harmonic
balancer that's inside the crankshaft pulley.

Some wobble is normal.
