Crankcase mod
Hello all!
I'm studying the different threads on the CC mod. I can see that there is two different ways of doing it: New hose with filter or Enlarge airbox hole. What is the difference between the two?

RE: Crankcase mod
Frog, if you enlarge the hole and get water in the box, it will want to flow in the cc before it will drain out the box drain tube. If you have not removed the little fluid catch canister at the end of the air box drain line, it will not drain out at all. If you have removed the smog stuff, pipe it to the upper airbox port where the smog stuff went. It will look very clean. I have removed the smog valve at the head and place a block plate there, left the smog piping for the 'stock look' and 'tee-ed' the cc tube into that piping. Clean and simple. Here in the PNW, there is a lot of water and my bike has been flooded three times, and it sucked each time. Best of luck.

RE: Crankcase mod
a16tony, I did'nt remove anything yet, I am just reading the different threads on that. Did you see a difference somehow? Is there any website or documents that gives results conserning that mod. And sorry to ask you this but can you explain me step by step what you did with the smog and the cc hose (reexplain a different way maybe...there is a little lack in my english comprehension!!! If you wish.)
Thanks to you and to all others for giving great explanations on the different subjects. Maybe giving you trouble sometimes because i'm new to dirtbikes, I have no knowledge of mechanics and my poor english. Thanks again and I appreciate you quick answers!

RE: Crankcase mod
Hey Tony, thanks for the links and pics, looks like a cold one for sure. I sure would like to ride there when the water is lower and the temps are higher. So tell me more about this Odessa 100. What pace is it? Can an old guy like me make it OK? Camping out of the truck? I have so many questions,........deej scared!!
