Re: Silver plastic covers on engine there for a reason?

Im not sure about the ones for the spark plug tops, I would assume them to be cosmetic..

But no they dont keep heat out, in fact they probably hold it in if anything. The only purpose I know of for the engine cover besides cosmetic reasons is that it does make the engine a little bit quieter because of the dampening material it has on the bottom of it.
