I need some help from you knowledgeable ones!
I have a custom oil tank to replace my original vertical side tank. My new tank has three feeds from the bottom with one of them having an internal pipe up inside to above the oil line. On the top of the tank is a brass oil breather mesh which is removable.
What I can see with the original tank is a feed and return which is easily swappable with two of the ones on the bottom of my new tank... its the third thinner pipe that would have gone to the top of the original oil tank which is the vent line. What shall I do with this one? I could take out the brass oil breather mesh and feed the vent line into that. But then that would mean the tank is then sealed. I cant put it on to the third feed at the bottom of the tank and it will just fill with oil. Unless I fitted to the one that rises inside to above the oil and but then the feed and return would come from pretty well next to each other in the bottom of the tank
Sorry for such rambling but I am trying to make it clear to you reading so you can picture what I have
Any Ideas? as I have never done a custom bike before and learning as I go along. Just wait until you see my other post about the internals I need to re-align when I took the side off the engine!
