Trying to replace air cleaners. Can't figure out what holds on the plastic cover over the engine. There are two pieces. The smaller, front piece comes off easily. The larger, main cover, has no visible screws or clips. Help!

Those usually just pop off and on.At most there is sometimes a wire retainer on the back of it over the throttle bore, but not on all of them.Just try lifting on the front of it
