Title: oil return tank? Post by: crom A zone on October 13, 2008, 08:08:48 PM Its the black box on the KFX400 on the right side of the carb. Does any one no if u need that or can u just vent the valve cover and crank and be fine?

Title: Re: oil return tank? Post by: TRX450R_Racer on October 14, 2008, 08:30:40 AM You need that black box. Why?? As long as he puts a breather on the hoses he should be fine. Title: Re: oil return tank? Post by: crom A zone on October 14, 2008, 09:31:58 AM thats what i was thinkin why does it need to be there
Title: Re: oil return tank? Post by: Team Alba Z400 Rider 43 on October 14, 2008, 11:32:17 AM I thought you could use a small little breather on the hoses as well. Here read this, the original post is gone, but this is from the gurus at Z400central. But take it off if you want. I wouldn't do it.

Title: Re: oil return tank? Post by: Team Alba Z400 Rider 43 on October 14, 2008, 12:09:45 PM No prob guys. I really wanted to get rid of it as well. You probably could relocate it if you took your time and did it right.
Title: Re: oil return tank? Post by: crom A zone on October 14, 2008, 03:46:59 PM yea but the point would be to get rid of it its not that bad looking more pain in neck to get the the carb
Title: Re: oil return tank? Post by: Team Alba Z400 Rider 43 on October 14, 2008, 06:59:34 PM Exactly, you could relocate it to make carb access easier.
