With my newly retained information I also hope to never visit this topic again. Anyway I have moved on to a new problem, oil being pushed outta the breather nut. I feel a headache coming on :lol:

Is it a stainless steel breather by any chance?

If the breather is dismantlable, pack it with some wire wool. Otherwise, some tubing shrunk on (via boiling water) to the dome will act as a catch tank, again with wire wool @ the top to stop muck getting in. Or buy the samr thing @ exorbitant prices & go 10 mph faster.....
