Good morning. Thx Jeff. Will do that now.

Hi guys. I just bled the air out and filled her the correct way. Idled her about 10 or 15 mins. Rode her around the block a few times and she held. Ill double up the time tomorrow again. Like i said, everything went awry when i opened the overflow tank while runnin hot, put a bit of coolant in...

I just had the head gaskets done. Ill do the overflow lineinto a bucket of water trick to see if i have bubbles. Ive run it without the radiator cap and no bubbles or nwont push it out. Obviously it was cold. If its hot itll spit it right out.

While idling bike i filled the overflow tank to the correct level. I closed the cap a d shut the bike off. I heard a squeeling noise from overflow tank like it was pressurizing or depressurizing. Either or. Anyhow, she started boiling over again. I bled it again, cruised around a bit, got home...

Congrats on the recovery and welcome.

Wait a second. Now that I recall, I already replaced the fuel pump. Just have timing belts to go and a few other things. Im having trouble putting her in neutral when on. New thread.

Hey fellas. Sorry for not responding sooner. Yes it is def oil. Im not too concerned right now. I will replace fuel pump before the long summer rides just so indont have the worry in the back of my mind. Ill take care of oil leak then. I havent ridden but it has not collected another oil drop.

I feel a new topic coming on ....

Welcome from Southern Cali!

P.s. Im also turning the petcock to off when i shut down bike. Not sure if it helps from over flowong the bowls but i read it somewhere.

Yes. Ive clampped everything up. Significant improvement i believe. Still need to wait for cap seal to come in. Have a nice Thursday everyone.

Lol. Yes Gerry I believe youre right. It has been replaced with a fuel hose. And i didnt place that clear hose there.

Well these are the two culprates so far. The gas cap itself is wobbly and the seal is broken as you can see in the pic. My luck has it, the cap is the first item i cAnt find oem or aftermarket. Luckily i found a new oem seal on ebay ($8 w shipping) and they MAY have one at honda of hollywood for...

My gl1000 smells like gas especially at start up and during riding. When i get home i smell gas on my clothes. Torso. Hands. Someone mentioned a faulty cap or fuel sender oring. I believe the cap is ill fitting. So i will try to replace that first before going into floats. Are there...

Correct. Before it was flowing into the recovery tank but was not pilling back into the radiator. When i cut off te singed tip of the overflow hose it appeared to make everything right. Tha or the bleeding.
