2000 GXT DI Help with Air Line

[JohnCiccarelli]

I am trying to connect all of the lines back up on this 2000 GTX DI. Unfortunately I did not take it apart. I only have one line left. It the one labeled Crankcase/Carter in this diagram. The only place that does not have a line on it is the Balance Shaft Vent. This is where you add the 30 weight oil. Is it possible that this line goes here? If not where does it go?

Any Ideas? John

Positive crankcase ventilation..

Yes, that line should connect to a nipple just above that fill plug. You should have filled the balance shaft through that small plug with about 40ML of 30 weight SAE motor oil.

Though that nipple looks like it's a balance shaft vent line, I believe your looking at the nipple for allowing positive crankcase ventilation. I believe that line your referring to, allows the crankcase pressure and oil vapors, to be removed from the crankcase and returned to the combustion cycle via the air induction system.

I haven't really spent a lot of time researching that, but it's my impression of how it works..............:cheers:

Seadoosnipe,
It's a 2 stroke. There is no such thing as crankcase ventilation on a 2 stroke. All of the air, fuel, and oil travel from the intake into the crankcase and then through the transfer ports to the combustion chamber.

That hose goes to the crankcase. It provides air pressure to the RAVE solenoid.

Good call...

I have a friend who rides the 1999 XP limited, which is carbed. It's the only 951 I've worked on, including the pump. I actually was writing about the way the check valve is set up to only allow the positive pulse of the engine to pressurize the RAVE bellows for opening and the solenoid vent them off to close. Then, I realized he had the DI motor. So, because I had never worked on the DI, I was going over the compressor. Then, for some reason, I went off on a different tangent.

Good catch on that Chester. Don't mind admitting I'm wrong and this time, it was obvious when I re-read my post....thanks,:cheers:
