How easy is it to remove the engine cover?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Hedge:
My advice would be to do it when the engine is warm. So the rubber holders are nice and flexible and don't break.

You have 2 choices either a spring clamp to take the pipe of the front or a torx to undo and remove the air intake.

When you put it back on plenty of silicone spray in the rubber mounts.

It is pretty straightforward really. :smiley:

I understand its in the engine cover, could be wrong lol, if you read the evoms guide I posted it will take you step by step through removal of the engine cover, its straight forward and answers your question, even has pics for dumbos. :laugh:
