Default Update with mechinc found wrong(now with pictures of intake)

Well I has been a rough week for the bonneville it has more problem with the oil sending unit. I was better for about a day it is back to pegging the gauge. Also replaced the *-belt yesterday for it chunk of belt was missing other parts of was shredding. also I am Vibrations from trannmisson maybe torque converter is going on. as when the vibration start I am usually going over 40mph when virbration start rpms kick up 500rpms then you give more gas and it stops. I think my car is dieing.

Belts don't usually shred unless there is a serious problem with one of the pulleys. You might take a look at all of the pulleys the belt runs on and see if one has a pile of rubber "crumbs" around it. That would indicate a problem area. From your description, I wonder if your harmonic balancer is going bad.

How hard is it to charge harmonic balancer. How would determine that it is balance

take off front passenger tire and then inner fender wheel shroud, you will see the HB then... if its bad it will look crumy like this...

you need a special puller that you can rent from autozone, rather easy once u have the right tools

something is very very wrong with the car their is lot chatter from the values . Seems to have all the power,but if you look toward the block it is very wet and their is lot of smoke from the engine bay smells like oil, but it is not losing a lot all fluids look fine. and the noise/vibrations is their all the time and oil pressue is always over 100 now. I think the motor is dieing. The side the oil pressue unit is on is bone dry

Bill...did you replace the sending unit for oil pressure? If so, you want to have it tested with a mechanical gauge asap.
