My crankcase breather tank is oily and dirty.  Real thick, oily, dirt that I had to rub off.
I got it all cleaned up, and am wondering is this a sign I should be taking care of something else?
The little tank itself, the large tube coming into and and exiting it were all the same.

I was replacing the vacuum tubes on the left side at the time...

Thanks,
Dan.

Draining the dragon drool hose and making sure all the hoses are in good condition and hooked up correctly is about it.

I did get about a tablespoon or so of drool out of there.  I planned to give all those hoses a better inspection/cleaning when I pull the airbox shortly.  Thanks.

I wanted to resurrect this older post as I have also found the lines to be dirty and want to clean them. I want to know if you can clean the inside of the crankcase breather tank? When the hoses are removed and I look in it appears to be very dirty but I wasn’t sure I should remove it and try to clean the inside. Has anyone done this?
