I bought this EA82

You guys running without belt covers reminds me of a car I worked on while I was a dealership tech in the late 80's. Work order said "check coolant leak" so I pulled it in and left it running while I opened the hood, expecting to see a water pump drip. When I looked down I couldn't believe what I saw... customer had gotten the engine so hot the covers had melted off... yes, OFF!!! :headbang: Completely gone except for a few saggy strings of plastic still hanging here and there!! The thing still ran fine but I only replaced the pump and told him to drive it for awhile before replacing the covers to make sure the engine was ok... never saw him again.
