12/31/08 - Re: 2000 1150 GS possible fuel roll-over valve.

 

The diagram I have (BMW Repair CD, 2001 vintage) shows the rollover valve plumbed in series with the fuel pump...no vent to atmosphere. And while the drawing is vague, it is clear there is no 3rd line to vent the filler neck area of the tank.

The rollover valve is there to reduce the chance of engine damage or fire in case the bike is upset with the engine running.

A carefully applied film of grease to the back of the pads will cure brake squeal (I use Honda Molypaste60). Be very careful...only a light smear of grease and DO NOT GET ANY ON THE FRICTION SURFACES!

Still too high...that grade and rated oil is about $10.00 per 5-quart jug in the big bix stores.
