They are not necessary.

I was hoping not cuz id need new ones and ther f**kn expensive...the bottom one has a hole in it from the main pully rubbing on it...idk whats up with that either. Some guy took out the ac and power steering before i bought it and think he bent the pully r sumthing

just keeps your timing belt / gears clean and helps prolong their life. Are you running the under tray and avoiding trying to ford small rivers?

Hmm def not going through any rivers any time soon. Whats the under tray? Do they have one fer my year and wher could i get it! That would help keep some dirt out!..i tryed posting pictures but every time i try it says some error 505 r sumthing idk how everybody else has them on here they must be magicians!!!

Wait, is your crank pulley wobbling? That is a serious issue on the early 1.6 cars and things could go to hell for you in a hurry if so... Check it and fix it if it is.

Im not sure if it is wobbling. Or not at the moment the engine is still apart the timing cover that has the t mark is worn Down as if it was wobbling! Should i just get a new pully? And can i get one that is single and doesnt have the power steering pully attached to the drive pully, cuz i dont have power steering anymore took that and ac out!? Or is it prolly more serious then just a pully? Im hopeing not cuz i just rebuilt the whole thing lol and the only thing left is the valvle cover to put back on!! Where can i get this single pully and another thing theres a sensor on top my thermostate houseing i cant find it anywhere everything comes up coolant temp sensor and that ones in the back already replaced and smaller then the one im talking about!!!! Please help if you can. Thank you
