might be a really dumb th400 Question

they were dust covers, used to protect the converter seal, also to cover moving parts underneath-i prob have not used one for the last 25-30 years, unless a daily driver
some people thought it helped to cool the converter w/o it also

I just called rossler earlier today to ask the same question, they said not to worry about using a dust cover.
