ahardb0dy Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 for new the only place I know of would be the dealer, here is a link from an online dealer with the part number and suggested and actual cost: 1350012G00 $58.95 $0.00 $44.21 Engine - Engine parts - Lower timing cvr Lower timing cvr - 6 cylinder 1987 - 1995 for cheaper I suggest the junkyard or someone that may have a used one laying around, I just threw all the covers out sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimGreg Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Only site I know that would sell is courtesy. For a non-wear part like that, I would be hitting the junk-yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDY Posted June 1, 2010 Author Share Posted June 1, 2010 yeah a junk yard would be ideal but it would be a pita to just get the covers but thanks for the info on the dealer info but do any of you guys think it could be something else besides the covers? i know u cant hear it but any suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahardb0dy Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 what I would do, I know it would be kind of a pain in the butt, if you suspect the cover is making the noise, put it back together without the lower or all the covers and run it and see if the noise goes away.

Dowser Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Thats true. the Tensioner could be too tight. It's kind of annoying cause to get the tensioner just right can be a pain. Too loose and your going to obviously skip teeth, Too tight and you going to stretch, or snap the belt. ' Good luck either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
