how tell if crankshaft is going to hell

99% of the time its the stock harmonic balancer thats the problem with engine vibration. You will know instantly if the snout of the crank is cracked, thats where they break 95% of the time since its the unsupported area.

your balancer very well may have spun, in which case you may not be able to tell from looking - but if you threw a timing light on it you'd see it wouldnt be lining up anywhere near the marks that it should be.

so Im not trying to jack this thread but what are some other things that the car would be doing if the harmonic balancer was messed up?
Could that effect how the car runs?

HARMONIC balancer balances ur motor thats what it does. when its broken now ur motor is unbalanced causing a vibration
the crank bearings will take a crap before the crank itself.
depending on the driver.
