philbeese Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 Could anyone be able to explain to me how to fit the breather pipe onto the crankcase on a Gas Gas TXT 280 2001. I can't seem to see where it actually attaches. Any help gratefully accepted. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jersey stew Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 (edited) there should be an right angles union which pushes into the crankcase near the front sprocket. Quite often I have found these to be missing for some reason but you can purchase the steel angled union to which you can push your hose onto, they are interference fit so you need to tap them home into the casing with a small hammer EDIT: Just realised yours in an early gasser and not a txt pro as i assumed. Sorry if that was misleading Edited September 12, 2016 by jersey stew 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
