Premium Member 2and3cylinders Posted September 18, 2021 Premium Member Share Posted September 18, 2021 that come with the AIR system block-off plates (see diag 2C & pg 2 pic 6) I bought on eBay that are NOT from Graves (whose instructions I've referred to above & below)? I presume the larger cap goes over the outlet spigot the protrudes down from the left side of the air box where hose 2 to the AIR system slips over (see diag 1C & pg 2 pic 7). Graves only shows the one big cap but the set I received has a smaller cap, so where, if anywhere, does the other smaller cap go? I'd think you'd NOT want to cap off the crankcase breather outlet from the valve cover (spigot 26 in Yami parts diag 2C) that connects via hose 25 to the inlet spigot at the bottom of the airbox (see diag 3C & p1 pic 4)?

Supporting Member piotrek Posted September 18, 2021 Supporting Member Share Posted September 18, 2021 (edited) Is the "kit" you bought on eBay something generic, or specific to the FJ. My kit from Vcyclenut only had one cap... for the port on the LH side of airbox. Maybe a cap for the connector?... is it round?

Premium Member 2and3cylinders Posted September 18, 2021 Author Premium Member Share Posted September 18, 2021 Generic but for the CP3 & YZX1000R, so maybe the small caps for the latter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member mikerbiker Posted September 19, 2021 Premium Member Share Posted September 19, 2021 I installed the Graves plates several months ago. One cap goes on the bottom if airbox and the other is not used. Dont know why they include it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member 2and3cylinders Posted September 19, 2021 Author Premium Member Share Posted September 19, 2021 Thanks everyone, you confirmed what I thought. After my ECU flash by Vcyclenut, the first time I adjusted the valve lash (all were very tight) I took the opportunity to flip the AIR reed valve reed stoppers, sealing the reeds shut with RTV HT silicone but leaving the system visually intact. The second lash check (all were exactly as I last set), I removed the AIR system valve and hoses, taped up plug and secured it to the side, and capped the reed valve cover spigots. This coming winter's valve check, spark plug & air filter swap, TBC sync check, etc. I'm installing these block off plates to finally eliminate all vestages of OEM. The 3rd time's the chsrm. Happy trails! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
