Protective cover for opti??
Re: Protective cover for opti??
Why waste money on a cover? When I bought my new AC Delco opti, before I installed it, I ran a heavy bead of hi-temp RTV silicone across the whole opti seam where the cover mates with the distributor body. I have spray washed the engine, had radiator hoses burst 2 times, spraying onto the opti, and that RTV has held up like a champ! NO opti problems!

I agree, Just seal up "every" seam on your opti with RTV , take your time and put a nice even bead that covers all joined surfaces and you shouldn't ever have any problems....the last thing you need is some cover material possibly building up moisture over your opti......

I did the RTV trick on my new opti 70k miles ago, and have had no trouble with water since. Before, rain/large puddles would douse the opti and cause a miss that would last about 20 minutes.
