Hi

my XTZ is spilling gas from the gastank-breatherhose for a while and the dealer hasn't got the right sollution so far ...

Perhaps anybody here has a sollution.

When my bike is parked in the sun for a while, drips of gas are spilling from one of the two tankbreatherhoses. If long and sunny enough, a small stream is under my bike :-(

I;ve asked the dealer to look at it. At first the dealer used pressure air through the hose (in to the tank) thinking a pressurevalve was not working correct. Well that didn't do anything.

Went back to complain and show the still dripping hose.
Then they contacted Yamaha Holland, and after consulting them they gave me a new gastank. Happy with that service, but....

it still spills, even more than before... Only when parked in the sun.
Went back to complain. Now they investigated furder and they found the gastankopening was a bit rough. They suspected that because of the roughness, gas could be pressed up in to the upper breatherhose when pressure in the gastank rises because of sun-heat. So they pollished that plastic part, again after consulting Yamaha Holland.

And now, it still spilllllllls.... Damn!
