Sorry for the long thread. But a bit of history might help.
My bike went in to a main dealer 3 weeks ago to get the fuel strip changed.
They failed to get a new strip to calibrate to the bike after numerous attempts.
They then told me the ECU is probably faulty and needs changing.
I declined this kind offer understandably.
Anyway when I left with the old fuel strip reinstalled the warning light was no longer on and the guage is showing three quarters of a tank constantly. With a range varying between 370-410 miles now. I'm assuming the many attempts to calibrate a new strip has buggered the calibration of my old one.
The old strip is now, I would say, communicating with my ECU.
Fast forward 3 weeks and whilst giving the bike a clean today I noticed none of the pipes on the right side of the tank are connected to the tank.
I have ridden about 600 miles in that time with no obvious problems though I did on occasion smell fuel whilst riding.
Is the one with the quick release coupling the fuel return hose? And the other rubber hoses just breathers?
I'm really confused by this as like I said I've ridden hundreds of miles like this, fuel consumption seems as per normal.
I have now connected them all though I'm not sure which way round to connect the 2 rubber hoses or if it even matters.
Any help from anyone would be nice.
