I don`t know if this is normal or not, But after a ride when I take out the tranny drain plug to change oil it has alot of pressure behind it.Is this normal or is a vent tube somewhere pinched,or does it even have one and where is it located? Thanks

you may want to check the pcv valve ... not sure mine has never been like that.

But where is the PVC valve? I`m a dummy when it comes to 4strokers. anybody else with any ideas what it could be? I don`t want to ride it till the problem is fixed,fear of blowing gaskets and junk.:confused:

I am not sure but I may have found the problem, Where the tranny vent hose/tube goes into the topside(tranny side) of the carb nipple thingy is completly sealed off inside rendering it useless for venting the tranny, I am thinking I have a defective carb top, Its a easy fix by drilling a small hole through it but I am going to let my dealer know first. Still under warrenty!!!
