Honda Civic 94 (mechanical) crankshaft pulley ...

Greetings from the land of the meringue ... Rep. Dom.
My problems is as follows and I would like to submit it to see what it seems:

repair engine or engine used ...

My civic mod 94 dx, I just broke the tip of the crankshaft, I mean where the pulley goes and I have the following doubt ..
a) A mechanic tells me that it is best to buy a used engine and forget that engine, but in my country they only give you And this worries me ...

b) disassemble the engine and get the crankshaft below, buy a crankshaft and place the other new parts ...

In your case (thought that you were), that you would do and how it would be better ...

Thank you anticipas ... anticipas ...

It depends on what each repair costs, that is, the decision is economical.
If only the crankshaft pulley has been broken and has not touched anything else, it takes the same thing to change it than to change the engine for another.

Greetings ...

broke the crankshaft, I mean; It must be changed and at the same time repair the damage if the engine had them ..

Thank you very much for your contribution ...

If you only damage the swap or rebuild it, but if the damage is at the tip of the crankshaft ... I changed the crankshaft and already, it depends if you have the speech of you spent or if it does not repair it, I have one the same and what I did was buy the pulleys and others and give torque to 75 in the first round, and 125lb-ft in the end and never more bother

But the engine starts or not, if so evaluate prices if you want to change the engine there are ways of knowing if the engine you want to buy is in good condition.-
