I couldn't help myself. :P I suppose there might be a filter on the fuel tank breather hose, but I don't believe there are any maintenance requirements for such a thing. Why do you ask?

I think there's even a CEL code for it.

When that winter air heats up it condenses and turns into water. Then we'll have a whole new bunch of people complaining about the sloshing noise in their tires. :grin:

"Yes I'm here for my first oil change and could you please switch to summer air for the tires - I'd like synthetic please". "Oh and I need some more blinker fluid and could you check the muffler bearing ? - it's a little noisy". :whistling:

(as long as they knew you were joking!) I think most of their customers are so uptight it would be a refershing change.

I had a buddy who was a few years older than me, and he would always rip my **** if I didn't know exact specs for stuff on his ricer Prelude and his bikes and stuff like that....always used to irritate me to no end. Anyway, sorry for whatever part I had in all the insanity here - and I would also like to apologize on the behalf of any others whose comments were hurtful to the originator of the thread.
