Hey Pro,

I have not seen this happen but just checked bulletins for this engine. The crank pulley torque has been changed to 99 ft lbs plus an additional 45 degree turn. Also use loctite when installing the bolt. Not sure which one, will try and find out. This may have been the cause of your problem.
