Moderator YamaHead Posted February 25, 2004 Moderator Share Posted February 25, 2004 I had this same problem once with my XJ550 Seca.......it ended up have too much oil in the crankcase :? ......then the breather tube dumps the excess back in the airbox :!: .....maybe just do a complete oil change with filter, just to be sure? Hope this helps :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flying scotsman Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Thank you, thank you. I've had the same problem for ages and couldn't suss it out. You was right, the breather tube was completely blocked, I've sorted it out. Hopefully she'll stop drinking oil and throwing it over everything.
