The air box thing i'm referring to is seperate to the fuel overflow bit it's near it tho'. It has a piece of small white/opaque hard pipe poking out of it and can be blown through. I'm assuming it should connect to something or that there is maybe a bit of the aribox assembly missing. I'll try to get a pic later so that I can post up the offending part for analysis.
can anyone offer any pointers on the parts I need? I Particularly need the powerjet '3-way' connector as I have made getting the powerjet sytem back to stock set-up one of the first on my list of jobs to do. I will be trying my best to make get this bike running and riding as well as it can because currently it doesn't feel right at all and i'm sure it should be much better than it is.
Like this?...
A hose should come from the top joint of the X piece (have a look in the carburettor section to see an example of the HRC red X piece) to the underside of the airbox and this opaque 3-way joint. The joint presses into a little filter that is pressed into the airbox. The tube from the joint/airbox then runs to the inlet (bottom) connector of the air solenoid block.

Another quicky. Can you normally see the edge of the reed valve block gaskets? I can't see any and suspect there may not be any in there at all as I see the tell-tale sign of gasket goo... I supsect it may be sucking air somewhere as the idle speed is pretty erratic and I'm hoping the leak is in the intake rather than at the crank seals...
There should be a gasket between the reed blocks and the crankcase, but not between the manifold and the reed blocks as there is a rubber coating on the manifold.
The manifold can distort though, so it's worth checking there for an air leak.
