Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In this video we install the airbox eliminator kit type 2 from The Ruck Shop. This will work with the type 1 kit as well as TVR kit. We go over hose placement as well as new products to clean up the install.

    If you replace the factory CVT with one of those plates that shows everything can you still use that bracket?

    JIS (Japanese industrial Standard) screwdriver is the ideal screwdriver to use. Unlike Phillips head it is designed to work with all of the quad head screws on a Honda. It won’t strip a screw like a Phillips head does. The carb screws strip frequently when people use a Phillips, particularly with lower end Phillips screw drivers.

    @@Theruckshop I am a customer of TRS(tons of their parts on my ruckus), they make some great stuff. What screw driver is this? I have had problems with the carb screws, stripped, injured my thumb, major pain. Also these Air Delete Kits with the Automotive hoses always seem to either interfere with the suspension or tire, esp when you have an aftermarket cvt cover then the metal bracket won't fit right, compressing the hose or interfering with the tire when you delete the fenders. I am back to running a cone filter right off the carb with the trs cvt cover I just couldn't get the hose right and it was tweaking the carb sideways.

    @@carlo1132 are you referring to the intake hose bracket that holds the hose to the cvt? if so that is bendable so you are supposed to adjust it for a smooth fit to the cvt. the filter directly to the carb will make that scooter run very lean.

    Finally ordered one. Anybody know what size tubing I would need for tubes that need to be cut? I'd rather keep the airbox totally intact and ready to get swapped back in if needed. Basically just looking at what size inner diameter tubing I'd need to get to run those atmospheric hoses.

    Is it a good idea to remove/block the par valve? Please correct me if wrong, but I believe its purpose is to allow gas that blows by the O ring into the crank case to evaporate, preventing oil dilution and maybe even release crank case pressure.

    So what about the hose for the clean air intake on the PCV solenoid there. I noticed you just left it disconnected and it's just sucking atmosphere in and dumping dirty air out to atmosphere. If I still have the solenoid connected won't that affect performance? Should I get a t bracket and use some of the hoses that I cut to install the breather filter so both clean, filtered air is going to both the PCV and the spot on the carb where you installed the breather filter?

    This is correct. You are allowing more air and fuel but now bottlenecking it at the exhaust so it’s still very restrictive. Also if you put both the jets in for the airbox it will be too rich for a stock exhaust.
