CB550 refurb
DomP:
Just a thought, would flatting the sump on some wet n dry to take a bit of material off it be an idea, if all o rings seem to be thinner then reducing the o ring rebate a touch would solve it. Non reversible move however.

Cheaper and much easier to just buy a genuine oring Dom. I must measure a genuine sump ring and see what dimensions it is, might be available off the shelf from somewhere. I could do with an old one to cut so I can measure it’s length then measure the diameter of a new unused genuine ring to get that figure. Of course I had a few lying around and threw them away when I was cleaning up my collection of sump pans 😯😯
DomP:
I thought it might be a bit extreme😄

Just ordered one from DS. £15 odd delivered. Better than a weepy sump!

Since I had converted to a 500 air filter but retained the 550 air box I have two outlets and one inlet that has nothing attached to them at the moment. Just wondered what would be the best to do with them and indeed what other people have done. There is a condensate drain point on the air filter box and the same on the air plenum. And an inlet on the side of the air filter box for the now defunct carbon capture recycle idea from the breather hose. I was wondering if there was a problem fitting a short bit of hose and connecting the two condensate drains. Has anybody actually had any condensate with the breather bypassed to just vent to atmosphere? I am uncertain and slightly confused what to do. I don’t have any hoses for these, I had a knackered hose from one of these, but nothing reordered till I find out what I need.
