2.7 gallons to be even more exact. the whole tank dumped into the airbox! what gives? now I need a new air filter because my filter was soaked and fell apart. the airbox was litterally filled to the top with gas. it was just filled up too. I turned the fuel petcock thing to off and ran the quad till it cut out. then i stood it up. 10 hours later i come home and i smell gas. i look at the quad and theres a huge puddle around it. wtf. maybe just a lot was in the bowl or something and leaked out. nope the whole tank full. on top of that now its 2AM and i'm covered in paint and gas because the gas like softened the paint on the garage floor or something and it came off all over my shoes, arms, and legs. So what gives? can you not stand a 450r up? is some seal busted? just thnking about it the crankcase breather tube runs into the airbox... wouldnt it have been possible fo the gas to have leaked into my oil? how can I tell if it did?
