Has anyone run into problems because of no fan shroud, timing belt cover, etc.? 200

Well, I don't know if leaving the timing belt cover off will cuase problems or not. I guess a rock could get inbetween the belt and one of the gears and cause the belt to slip off but I couldn't say for sure. As far as the fan shroud goes, the only ill effect that I can think of would be that it's not drawing as much cooling air in because the shroud directs the cooling air into the fan. That's it's job. So the engine could run a little warmer. Other than that i don't know. I use all of my covers and shroud for protection if for no other reason. As far as the fan hardware goes, I'd take a look at the studs that the fan mounts to and if they look okay, I'd get 4 new locknuts and put it back together. Good Luck! Charles
