Picked up my xterroin Tucson, direct from Josh (nice guy). Got it home and assembled it it an hour. Problem is I had one spare part left which wasn't mentioned in the manual. Prepare, this is going to spawn into several questions. The spare part was a tube. The tube is about 10 inches long and looks to be a breather or a gas line.

So I looked over the machine closely for some place a tube could connect but didn't. I found none. Then I thought, maybe it connects to another tube. I found four tubes which were connected on one end only. I will provide manual pages and part numbers for those who have the manual.

Tube 1[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]art Ref No.10, Part ID#M150-1001001. This tube comes off the cylinder head cover. One end is connected to the port off the head and the other end is thicker and has a clamp connected on it but is not connected to anything. Sometimes, these things are fed back with a PVC valve to the carb so I think this is a high candidate for connecting to something "it has an unused clamp so it must go to something!"

Tube 2[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]art Ref No.22, Part ID#M150-1003400. This tube comes off the crankcase and doesn't terminate.

Tube 3[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]art Ref No.28, Part ID#16199-GT8-600. This tube comes off of the float chamber and is used to drain fuel for winter storage so probably only one end should be connected.

Tube 4[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]art Ref No.19, Part ID#95005-45270-50. Very short tube bending down coming off of the carb. Probably the intake for the needle jet?

Any info on the mystery tubes and these 4 tubes would be appreciated. The Kart runs as is but idle isn't perfectly steady. However, my 245lb bulk climbed 500 feet of nearly vertical mountain with the gas pedal barely down so the low end torque is awesome on the 2005!

Thanks

Just a guess,,but on the LT80's, the rear end and tranny have vent lines comming off them. Possibly look for a brass vent tube around these areas. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
