Default pulleys

hi guys,
my bottom pulley on tick over seems to have a slight wobble, but when engine is at higher revs seems fine, also when engine is off its solid. Is this a problem or is it normall? is there much point in uprating these and what are the benifits if any?
cheers
steve.

I would undo and check there is no dirt or damage to the mounting on the crank and pulley.. and torque it up again.. it is unlikely the pulley is buckled.. more likely it is not tight or flush in the crank.. damage to the crank will cost you a lot of £££ to fix..
It does have a rubber dampener in it, it would be worth checking that has not broken up too.

do check but I think torque is 98+or-4 NM..

handbrake on and put car in 5th if you don't have access to special tool to hold the crank pulley..
