what front cover? The plastic cover on the engine covering the belt? If that is what you are speaking about, that was the first thing I got rid of when I bought the boat. It is a hazard as it makes inspecting the engine difficult to do. Every boat I looked at that had the cover on also had a grossly loose belt with belt dust and oily dirt all over the engine. I like to inspect before during and after I am running.... cant do that with the yanmar cover on.
