Default Rocker Covers

HI There,
I have a Custom softail, i discovered it has 84-91. rocker covers on the front and 84-99' rocker cover on the rear cylinder.
Now that would not prevent my bike from starting ? I replace the back rocker cover because the were wrapped. So i bought 84-99' which i know they are breather type.
And the front is fine as in not wrapped, now the Bike cranks but has a hard time starting, Pushrods are solids that was not messed with. I check the timimg. That seems to be
in the same spot ?? now i am checking the carb.
Thank You Pinkstf

Well,the covers themselves shouldn't effect Her starting..maybe something was damaged while replacing
the rear cover by mistake?
How did She start before Ya replaced the back one?
