Engine paint colour
« on: June 02, 2010, 03:23:20 »
My harmonic balancer and distributor support housing on a m130 (front cover over distributor/fuel pump drive ) appears to have been painted in a green and are wondering if this is so does any one know what colour it might be. Thanks

If I understand your description correctly the distributor support should have a flat aluminum finish and the balancer should be engine color ie satin black

Please snap a photo and post it, if that's convenient. I'd love to see what you're describing.
