发明名称 Rocker arm accessibility cover assembly
摘要 A rocker arm cover providing diagnosis and repair access to the rocker arm while the engine is running. The rocker arm is also capable of protecting a rocker arm from contacting other components of the engine, reducing contamination, and inhibiting oil and fluids from dispersing. The casing includes a multiplicity of access holes positioned along the casing, and positioned for accessing the rocker arm. A plurality of removable caps and joining mechanisms cover the access holes. Upon removal of the caps and joining mechanisms, a listening device with a diaphragm may be utilized to listen for specific rattling sounds associated with a loose rocker arm, or other valve in the cam system. After this diagnosis, a fastening device may be utilized to engage and adjust the rocker arm, rocker arm fasteners, or the intake and exhaust valves linked to the rocker arm.
