crankcase breather filter? (Read 172 times)

jabman Senior Member Offline Posts: 411 England Gender:	crankcase breather filter? 09/09/09 at 10:02:00 I'm looking to ditch the air box for a cone filter, but what do i do with the crankcase breather tube, do I just pull it out of the box and stick a mini crankcase filter on it? what happens to any junk that comes out of the tube? also what size K&n filter do i need to fit go on the stock carb inlet rubber?

I just installed one of the mini crank case filters on mine. Got it for $10 from Advance Auto.

I haven't had anything come out of my filter yet, but I can tell it's got some oil in it and it's going to need cleaned or replaced at some point.

I've got a cone filter from Lancer (they were being sold via the board store), but I don't remember the dimenions. I know the K&N part # has been posted time and time again though if you search for it.

Reply #2 - 09/09/09 at 13:42:23 I've done it, I have it... and I can't remember the KN part # Search on ebay, that's how I got mine. You need some kind of breather filter, for now I simply jammed a paper core fuel filter in the hose, but you need something.

I ran mine lower than the top of the engine and it sometimes will let go a drip of oil.

Reply #9 - 09/09/09 at 18:46:30 I got mine from a motorcycle store locally and it is orange and black. I just took my tube in with me and we found something to fit inside and I used a clamp to keep it tight. I also have since trimmed my tube way down so it is right under my tank. I also have a '75 sportster tank.
