Spooge

[Lildawg]

Got a lot of spooge coming out of the hose from the power valve, anything to be concerned with or keep an eye on, or is it normal conditions? Thanks guys

Absolutely normal. If it bothers you, remove the pv cover and clean it out. A piece of cardboard on the floor will keep your garage tidy.

Thanks Roostafish. Just the answer I was looking for.

My LH side PV cover drain came zip tied from new. I cut the zip tie and wound in a M3 bolt, about 10mm long, into the bottom of the tube. Every time I clean the airfilter (or something like that) I unscrew the bolt and let the tube drain onto a rag. Usually get a puddle 2 or 3 cm wide.
I use Motul 800 which is an ester based synthetic oil, and does seem to create alot of spooge. I'm happy to see it.

Motul 800 must have a very high flash point. I can't run it in my 300 at 44/1 mix ratio. It blows spooge everywhere and will eventually foul plugs if riding slow technical stuff. Maxima K2, Champion Waterpumper, and Amsoil Dominator or Interceptor are all good oils with a lower flash point.

Motul 800 does have a very high flash point. Which is why I stick with Motul 710.
