93 SSEi supercharger question
 
I have a noisy SC in my '93 Bonnie. It's affecting performance as well. The SC doesn't always kick in fully when I give it some boost. It's not the harmonic balancer since it was replaced a few months ago. It sounds like the impeller bearing. Everywhere I call, no one is able to repair it. They either have then sent god-knows-where to have them rebuilt, or they suggest buying a new one. Buying a new one is out of the question...

Where would I find the parts necessary to fix it? I live in Ottawa, Ontario Canada. I don't mind having the SC sent for rebuilding, as long as it doesn't cost like 700$


Also, which shocks would you guys recommend for this car? Mine seem worn out and I'd like something a bit stiffer.

I'm a Honda guy so all this GM stuff is all new to me :?

Superchargers are available, I know ebay is one source and another one is Canadian ???supercharger maybe? Willwren will come in and clear that one up.

On shock/struts you should read this and it will give great information as well it would be suggested to change the endlinks on the sway bars while doing a strut change.

Take off your SC belt and turn your pulley back and forth by hand. Does it wobble? It's probably a worn coupler. Do that, and start a new topic with those results in the Forced Induction Forum.

The pulley was checked for wobble before the SC belt was replaced. It's solid.

Not wobble. Backlash. Big difference.

Please post your Supercharger issues in the Forced Induction Forum to keep it seperate from general Mechanical.
