Awesome! Thanks mate.
What brand is it (if any)?

Fri Feb 16, 2007 8:06 am

nylex

wattie, have you had the chance to pull it out yet...

i'm not the best of doing mechanical alterations. so i'm keeping away from doing it.

BTW is North richmond in VIC or NSW.

Fri Feb 16, 2007 2:25 pm

nsw mate.

its been out and back in. in about 10 mins.

Did you need to remove the tank?
I'm thinking not.....

nope, when i installed it, i undid the tank and propped it up, but about 1cm out of the rubber hose about 1/2 way along (the hose coming from airbox to the T)
and stuck the tap in, then put the tank back down.

now its in, i can get my hand up to turn it on and off, and managed to pull it out with the tank mounted as normal.

no mechanical knowledge really needed. if you can cut rubber you can do it.

Mate just saw your post from YT what did you mean when you said would keep it?
BTW that flame looks awesome :D

meaning, if mine made flames like that with the kleen system, i'd be leaving it as is...

Mon Mar 26, 2007 7:28 pm

I got bored of the flameless silence so I just removed the block off insert and opened the hose up again.
I'm thinking that Nylex tap makes it real easy to change from one to the other, when you get bored.....
I went for a ride with a good mate the other weekend and he asked me why my bike had stopped 'spitting fire' at him.....

Anyone know who stocks these Nylex taps, in Melbourne?

do you have bunnings?? or any big hardware place?? or perhaps a nursery with sprinklers??

Mon Mar 26, 2007 8:19 pm

LOL that's the spirit!

Mine pops and farts and generally carries on on overrun, ESPECIALLY on a hot day with shitty (read below 98RON) fuel.

Damn race maps and lack of cats and O2 sensors!

Dave,
By that response, I'm guessing you can get them from just about anywhere!

Shrike,
Tried sprinkling some Vtec powder in with that 1:25 coffee/ fuel mix?
Next time you're down at Scabs, ask one of the drunken ricers parked out the front of that kebab shop, next to the Lookout. He will fix you up..... lol!!!!

or maybe it's not enough coffee. Isn't it supposed to hiss and steam?
