Default How many running with out Cam cover?

Hey guys I was just look at a fwe pics of D series engines and notice that a few of them were running wiht out the cover over the camshaft gear. Leaving the timing belt out in the open.


I was just wondering how many of you do this, I was thinking about it, I can't really see it really be that bad of a thing. ???

lol no its not

cam cover = metal thing that covers valves and cam(S)
timing belt cover = plastic pos that keeps rocks and dirt out of timing belt area

and i would NOT run without one, i saw a bolt kick into the belt cover and put a NASTY groove in a timing belt, very close to breaking.

if the belt breaks, so does the motor

interference engines
