Title: filtering the vacuum lines?
Post by JohnBoy on 08/20/09 at 14:28:04

A quick question.

Is the fact that both the carb vacuum lines are open ended and unfiltered a risk of contamination?
Putting a high flow filter in place would be pretty simple if it is warranted.
Any comments?

stock position is up the frame rails under the tank for the vent tubes
vach line is open ? (if you changed petcock plug the vach line) vach end of line is filtered from the air cleaner....

The vent tubes don't suck,... so no filter is needed...
The crankcase vent,... blows... :-?  o.k., sometimes it sucks too...


I imagine you're sitting in your shop with two nifty looking little filters, thinking.....
"Hmmmm?".... :-?
"Maybe on my helmet vents"..... ;D
