lol thats awesome. should i just take it off or what should i do with it?

burton51m · 08-02-2006, 03:54 AM

depends.... if it is unstable and looks like it is gonna get run over take it off.

if its fine with the rope and stable i would leave it. sooner or later you might wanna fix it so it isnt nig rigged. y does it need to be held up. u missing screws? is it cracked? find out whats wrong and fix it somehow(lose the rope)

as long as you have all timing covers on... then random things that may fly in shouldn't do too much damage lol

take it off or use huge washers as i imagine the holes are too big for the 10mm bolts.... if the bolts are broken off then ya, remove it

the front bolts were broken off and i took it off tonight.

how effiecent are the under covers? i mean in assisting in pullin in air through the rad and stuff. just wondering whether i should put one on

They were put on there for a reason.
They assist in high speed cooling, as the air will take the path of least resistance, I.E. not through fins of an intercooler.

im planning on keeping the cover just wondering what kind of fluid is at the back right corner of the engine?
