breather

1976 honda xl 250 breather hose is in a "T" ...comes out of the crankcase,then T,s off hanging down by the swing arm,then the upper part that T,s off goes towards the front of the bike and i cant figure out where it attaches to it dont go on the air box or anything..does it just hang up somewhere??

As above my dominator engine has a breather tube on the cam cover but it is open to the air,this seems wrong where did it go originally? Idont use the airbox from a dominator and wonder how it was connected

Hey NX650 from 1988. Have a jet kit in the mail and planning on doing Dave's mod. I wanted to take the carburetor apart and clean it up before hand, but having trouble getting two of the screws in the float chamber out - seem very soft and I don't want to ruin them. I have PH and PZ...

Hi again On the left side of the carb on my Dommie there is a plastic bottle type container which I assume is part of the crank case breather. Certainly in the diagrams I have found, that appears to be what it is. Can I remove it and replace it with a bit of tube that does away with the bottle...

Hi all - I have a US spec '79 XL500s-Z and I want to eliminate the US crankcase breather/collector, does the UK version have a plain pipe from crank case to air inlet rubber? Has anybody any other solution? thanks!!

Most of Henrietta is now back where it should be and looking tidy. Under the tank is just the fuel pipe to the pump but the parts diagram seems to show other hoses (parts 45, 46 & 48). there seem to be 2 short pipes under the tank (nr the fuel tap), one is 10.5mm and the other 5.5mm. Does anyone...

Decided to have a look took front sprocket cover of to find , sprocket flat edge facing forward I think flat edge should be at the back..and badly...

Just noticed I've got a drip of fuel from one of the breather pipes. When I started her up the drip became a steady flow. I'm guessing something has given up in the carb. Fortunately its booked into workshop on Tuesday. Any ideas?

Hi all Just received my acerbis 23L tank the fitting seems easy even though there are no instructions but if someone has some that would help. But what I would like to know is that do I need to reattach all the pipes of the original tank there is 3 in total 1 breather small in size 1 large...

Hi chaps.. Got an oil leak on Africa Twin RD07A. It seems to be originating from the area of the oil filter. Drops of oil seem to drip onto the bash plate and from there drip onto the ground. Could just be the oil filter seal, but is there anything else in that area of the bike that might be the...

Did some servicing on my AT today (changed the fork fluid, which looked quite good for almost 50000 miles), and I noticed the end of the breather pipe from the crank case was plugged. I yanked the plug out, and out came a bunch of water mixed with a little bit of oil sludge which smelled...

I removed the tank today and the where two breather pipes coming from the tank. One of them goes into a Y shaped union with another pipe. For the life of me I can't figure out whee the extra pipe from the Y union goes to, any ideas? Cheers in advance

RD07A... Hi guys. I'm putting the bike back together and want to know where the carb breather pipe goes. There is a T piece by the fuel tap that goes from both carbs. The pipe goes down to the bash plate to drain and there is a loose pipe up under where the tank goes. Is this just supposed to be...

Hi Its been covered I think, having trouble locating simple answers ( just me and the topic and beer). Is it just a matter of; 1. Ripping the lot out. 2. plug all the holes. 3. run a pipe from the engine breather to a oil breather filter under the seat. Apologies if its a little vague as...

Hiya, i'm having a problem with the fuel tank creating a vacume and compressing the tank, ive checked the breather hole and pipe and all seems clear but when i undo the petrol cap i can see the sides of the tank popping out. Any ideas whats going on?

Hello, Just doing some general fettling on the AT last weekend which involved lifting the fuel tank. I spotted what looks like a breather pipe (photo below) which is only connected at one end, the other end has a clip on the end which suggests it should be connected to something - the Haynes...

When I first got my Dominator it used to stall a lot and not tick over sometimes, I was always bump starting it at round abouts. Anyway , after lots of checking etc I found that all the breather pipes where blocked with sand and dirt. After cleaning these out it was like having a bike. This...

I have a oil leak that seems to be dripping out of my engine breather pipe can any one help

Hi All, hope you had a good Xmas . My question is where do the engine breather pipes go to ? , the one from the cam cover on my Dommie just hangs down the back of the engine and the vent tube from the crank cases goes up under the side cover ,both are open to air, is this correct , the tube from...
