ok i know it isnt a big deal at all but y dont my 2.2 engine look like this.. mine doesnt have a spark plug cover and has a ugle hose on the top of it



sumones 2.2


my 2.2

 

someone took it off before you bought it?

 

ok where can i buy one at?

 

Yea and the wires hide behind it.

Try Crateenginedepot.com

Or borrow one from the millions of 2.2s parked in the mall, roads etc.

 

that's how my 2.2 came once I took off the plastic cover. I think that first pic has bought that piece somewhere.

 

o6 comes with cover 07 does not what year is youre

 

07 man

 

Its because you have an '07.

 

mine's an 07 as well

 

did yours come with it?

edit nvm reading>me lol

 

the 05-06 has a single big coil with a ignition module that is what your seeing our 07 have a coil over plug design which is what your seeing all motors are moving over to the coil over plug design

 

Exactly... and I think the coils are sticking up too far to fit one of those covers over it.

Woo 600 posts

 

yes they do stick to far up. that why i am making a cover out of sheetmetal

 

sheetmetal, good luck and post pics...might be how to worthy if it comes out good, but yeah 03-06 l61 ecotecs came with the ICM and the cover...the 07+ have individual coils

 

I'll sell you mine

 

^^^^no sidebursting, its the rules, LOL

 

Quiet, ****

 

I'm also wait'n for this part.
Covers
Haven't heard anything yet from these guys.

 

yeah 07's are like that if you take off the plastic engine cover. I did that to mine and i think it looks alot better

 

you will need the 2.4L cover probably since you have the same taller coil packs.

 

thats how mine looks. its doofy.

 

05-06 had an ignition coil/housing which is the "cover" you're talking about with an igntion control module for all 4 cylinders....

07 switched to individual coil on plug design......

 

sorry for bumping such an old thread, but i didnt feel this was worthy of creating a new thread for. I followed some of you guys' advice here and made a cover for my ICM.

before


after


it was fun I'm thinking about adding a silver decal that says 'COBALT' in the center of the cover. I'm also working on a similar cover but adding some stainless steel 'grill' mesh material inserts in it. Dont ask me why. I was just feeling creative one day lol. Oh yeah, one more thing... have any of you 2.2 guys ever thought of using a 2.0 fuel rail cover on our cars to hide our fuel rails? Just cover up the lettering or dremel it off. I dunno.

 

My opionion is that it looks better without the cover. But to each his own.

 

Umm guys. You do know thats TWO different methods of ignition right?

First picture is the way my 06 came. That whole piece holds the coils and you have ONE connector. In 2007 it came in INDIVIDUAL coil packs(cheaper to repair) and 4 individual connectors.

These two are NOT interchangeable as easy as you guys think.
