ABSTRACT:
A viscous damper comprises an annular inertia weight rotatably mounted in a housing adapted for attachment to the crankshaft of an internal combustion engine. Position indicating means are formed on the weight to determine the rotational position thereof, relative to the housing. Such determination is made by marking the outside of the housing with an indicia in alignment with the position indicating means formed on the weight, rotating and subsequently stopping the housing, and measuring the misalignment, if any, occurring therebetween.
