what it this?

[Stealthman80]

ok I recently noticed what looks like a whole obove the engine stamp and I'm pretty sure It wasnt there before, I just found an old pic and Relized what what there. Theres a little rubber price covering it and it fell off when I was cleaning the engine last month. I remember picking it up saying where the hell is this from, I think I threw it out. now I think it flywheel is exposed? you can see it spinning, is this bad? what the hell is it for?

[Djmoua]

yea dood haha thats to cover your flywheel so no junk would fly into it if im sayin it right. But DAMN you gotta tell me how you did the engine cleaning, Looks nice.

[Bongo]

Mine was already missing when I had bought the car. Never had a problem with it.

[Stealthman80]

ok but why the hell is there an opening for it in the first place? as far as the cleaning goes to top pic was takin when I got the car 2 years ago, just a lot of elbow grease

[RICHIE*GT35R]

it's not there so nothing will fly in there.

That's where you point your timing gun at when setting the timing.

[Stealthman80]

so no big deal if its not covered?

[91accord2dr]

IMO it was there for a a reason. id replace it

[d112crzy]

Nothing will happen if there's nothing covering it.

I lost mine about a year ago.

It's just a plug. If anything, the next time you hit up a junkyard just take one. Nothing will happen if you don't replace it.

[mozzandherb]

Necessary no, but you should hit up a junkyard anywhere in Ottawa and you'll get one no problem. Man your engine cay looks really nice, I would really like to see your car in person, shit I'm in Aylmer so it's not that far, and maybe you can help me turn my engine bay that clean Let me know

[Stealthman80]

lol I think my camera has a built in niceness feature because in the pics it always looks a lot better then it is
