I just got my B18C back from the shop and realised my mechanic didn't bolt in the scatter shield.

Do I really need it?

I would think oil would be sloshing into the crank without it when you're cornering.

A.k.a. Windage Tray is used to prevent this.

Moving this to Engine General since it's a good technical question, not a junk topic :thumb:

Thanks Teal, lifesaver!

Now I just got to buy/find a torque wrench :(
