Oil in Breather
I have a 06 street glide FI with a bigsucker air cleaner. I'm getting oil in the breather thru the vents. It is not over filled.I can smell the oil on decell. What causing this and what can I do to fix it?Thanks

RE: Oil in Breather
You can either.....
 \\;
1. Stop running at a sustained high rate of speed, causing the oil to fill up in the breather box and allowing it to drain out.... 70+ MPH will do that......
 \\;
2.Mod the rocker support plate drains to enlarge them enough to allow the excess oil to drain out rapidly.... While you are there, you might as well rebuild the breather assy's...
 \\;
3. Invest mucho $$$$ in the "Other" fixes, like Doherty's Myst Free kit (That still tell you to drop your oil level 1/2 qt below Mfr Spec's, or those TP Rocker Box's...
