Sounds like a good time for pause and reflection..

Ridge looking at pictures online, on none of the engines i can see the flywheel and belt. Its covered up by a plastic piece. Is this the intake garb? If so none of the engines at the dealer had that on them. On every one of them the rusty flywheel is not covered at all along with the alternator and compressor.
