COVER, CYLINDER HEAD

Engine Top Cap: Cylinder Head Protection ?️

Why You Need This Part

This essential engine component forms a tight seal above the valves, spark plugs, and camshafts. Its main job is to keep oil inside the engine and stop dirt, dust, and debris from entering sensitive cylinder head parts. This protection helps your engine run quieter, cooler, and more efficiently.

How It Works

The cover sits directly on top of the cylinder head, sealing it with a gasket. It ensures oil flows smoothly over valves and camshafts while containing oil splashes. It also shields internal parts from contaminants and helps maintain correct air pressure in the engine.

Consequences of Failure

• Oil leaks on the engine or ground
• Losing oil pressure and risking engine damage
• Engine running rough due to dirt infiltration
• Burning oil smell or smoke under the hood
