If I didn't know better I would think that lots of people missed the 30+ page thread about the engine cover. I was just making a joke. Should have known I am never funny.
I was laughing.
I understood your joke. Others apparently didn't.
LOL! You used to see a nice, circular chrome air filter sitting on top of a beefy carburetor, beautiful painted valve covers, an ignition coil, and a single ignition distributor with wires going to each spark plug--and that was it. Everything made out of metal, everything clean and sharp.Nada. It is a gushy piece of plastic that gets in the way of working on the engine or seeing it. IMHO. Cars existed forever without them until someone probably whined about the engine not looking pretty once engine sensor wires started lmaking engines look like a spaghetti factory.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I use it to hold my battery maintainer.
My service is all done at the dealer. I didnt say it was not getting serviced per maintenance schedule.
I don't know what to tell you, because I'm trying not to create an argument about it.
Point taken!
I checked all the fluids under the hood before I drove my new Bronco Sport off the lot. My salesman said, "You know, our service guys check all that stuff when they prep the car." I answered, "I'm sure they do, but they don't pay the bill if the engine seizes on the way home because there's no oil in it."
My dealer gives me 2 free oil changes whenever I've purchased a new vehicle from them. I used one once... since then I just throw the coupons out. I'd rather do it myself as it gives me a chance to inspect everything underneath.
Low and behold, it is.....not there on my BL.It IS a 2022 so you never know.
