I had a fairly good discussion with IPD yesterday. They indicated that they might stop selling it altogether. I seem to be the one with the recurring problem, but x2 in a row is raising some eyebrows.

Seems that the cost of continuing to make the old tool is so high that few wanted to buy it any longer. Another company started making a tool that seemed to work, but it started failing all the time... so they stopped selling it... and then another company approached them and said they were making a "better" tool... which is the one I've been griping about.

I did learn that my Harmonic Balancer is more of a wear part than I first thought which suggests another avenue of investigation with my engine vibrations, and another part I should plan to replace... when I do finally get the belt off.
