Oil on air cleaner in Milano/75
Hi all,
Colin's right, the oil is from the oil breather hose that hooks into
the air intake hose. The DiMatteo (TM) fix ;-) is to disconnect the
oil breather hose, and take out the metal pipe in the end of it,
take the metal pipe over to where your drill is, and enlarge the inside
diameter of the pipe as much as possible. The problem is that
the small size of the pipe as it enters the air intake hose causes
too much oil (instead of just oil vapour) to be sucked into the intake.
I've done the mod on my milano and it certainly helped, but didn't
entirely eliminate the problem.
I'm not sure how clear my explanation is, but hope it helps... ;-)
Cheers,
Neil
