I agree with the attempt to clearing the vent. Doesn't seem like it would be a substantial blockage. I can't see an obvious hole/vent on my '84 CB650SC. Pressurizing the tank might do it, but you would also have to put vacuum on the valve to open it. ???????????????? Maybe submerging it in Seafoam would work............. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, February 18, 2011 8:54 AM Subject: Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] From 60 miles per tank to 100 miles per tankNeed some help to either fix the part or find another
