Does your sister need a visit to the retard farm? Maybe a permanent membership there? And for starters, you give NO information on what engine cover your talking about. Maybe a membership for both of you?

I'll guess. - Timing cover ?

No, that can't be right. It uses bolts. In fact , everything does that I can think of on the engine. (?)

My shed and deck, yea I used screws, but that's all that comes to mind. I could see what it says on the boxes?

"blots" Like ink blots ? I think you may have your sites mixed up, or blots. We're the blot toward the upper right, - last time I looked.

You won't hurt anything if you leave the cover off.

Well, they're special fabed bolts to fasten plastic to metal. 6mm thread, .5 long with 10mm heads. Just use a washer. .75 long would work as well.

Coarse.
