I changed out my stock 2004 air box with a 2002 unit that had the divider cut out of it. When I pulled the rubber tube off the drain I was surprised with a flood of old fuel oily nasty mix. The P.O. never turned the gas tap off, but I have for the last 3 months. Has this happened to anyone else, and were did it come from..... The drain tubes (two of them) had plugs in the ends of them. Is this the way they usually are? I can see that you wouldn't want air sucking in there, but what good are they if they are plugged? I found the whole ordeal very strange. In a previous post I asked about exploding air boxes, and someone said something about fuel in the air box exploding, but I didn't believe it could happen like that........ I am re thinking that now.
