G'day

I think that during its live, being heated up and than cooled down the timing belt cover become distorted. it has a bulge where crankshaft pulley is. as a result pulley cut/rub through a cut in it. i was wondering if that is a common thing happening in many zooks or just in mine.
is it worth getting new cover for $55-60? It is a dust cover preventing any shit getting onto timing belt. I can replace the timing cover seal, but don't know if i should worry about the cover itself. only water could get through the cut behind the pulley.

cheers

same happened to mine i got a second hand one.
i think you should replace it as it keeps anything from jaming in between the cog and belt ect and pos snapping the belt
walking home is no fun

Mine had also warped so I replaced it with another 2nd hander, but that one was warped up the top, causing a large gap between the top of the cover and the rocker cover. I found coon bridges gaps nicely hehe.
