Crank(y) Case Pulley

Tim in NC left me a comment regarding the Miata's wobbly crank case pulley. He said "Don't ignore it" so I looked into the matter and it appears the Miata needs a new engine. I kinda wish I didn't kn0w that. According to the Miata specialist mechanic here in Vancouver the only way to fix the problem is to either rebuild the engine or swap in a new one. Since spending $2000 on a new engine is not an option for an out of work actor I have to try something else. I could sell the car but I don't want to saddle someone else with this problem and if I did declare it I wouldn't be able to sell it for as much as I bought it for so I'd be loosing as much as a new engine and the whole Miata itself. For now the Miata runs and it will continue running until the worn out crankcase pulley messes up the timing so bad that it can't pull away from an intersection or the pulley comes off and it's end of story. The only option I'm left with is to attempt the Loctite fix. This basically involves gluing the pulley into the right position. Hopefully it works. Stay tuned.

How many cars out there have an internet community like this one? Or specialist mechanic shops? Not many. The Miata is special.
