Hi Joe,
Thanks for the info.! Maybe that's why I have a fuel line cross in my box of
parts with a bolt hole at the junction! I too have a breather like the one
described and always wonder what the threaded boss was for. Now I know! Cheers,
Charlie

The cross-over block allows 1 petcock (either one) to feed both carbs. I think this style breather was unique to early machines fitted with the V700 tanks, which have their fuel petcocks mounted well forward on the tanks compared to the petcock location on the fat Ambo/Eldo tanks. _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger:http://messenger.msn.com ============================================================ MONITOR UNIVERSITY: WHAT I.T.
