Crappy Product or a Crappy Instillation?
So i bought this air intake a while back and I'm having some problems with oil getting into my throttle body and motor. The dealer is telling me it's because the crank case hose is hooked up to the throttle body via the AccuTronix adapter. He also says that the boots holding my intake manifold and throttle body are sagging down and need to be replaced. I'm basically not happy with this crappy product. I'm wondering if anyone else is having these issues with this thing?
I will address these issues one at a time.
Oil getting into my throttle body and motor..
Oil should not be getting into the engine because of our adapter. Both the Accutronix “Air Cleaner Adapter” and the Accutronix “Air Cleaner Adapter & Support” connect the breather hoses between the air filter & the throttle body, just as they were connected from the Honda factory. Is it possible that you have an air filter that flows more air causing a greater vacuum on the breather hoses & is now vacuuming in more than normal oil vapor?
Throttle Body boots are sagging & need to be replaced.
Our adapter is just that, an adapter not a support. Our adapter is just one piece of the puzzle. You need a bike, an adapter, an air filter, & a support. You may also want a throttle body cover to hide all of the wiring & the throttle body. It sounds like you do not have a support.

Accutronix will have our “Air Cleaner Adapter & Support” kit available very soon, as Fuggin Fabrication stated.
However, our support may not work in every application with every air filter in the world, but it should work with many. Various filters come with a support & will not need anything additional. Then again, larger & heavier filters may require even more support. Accutronix has no plans to manufacture air filters at this time. I will have photos & pricing next week for the “Air Cleaner Adapter & Support”. If you currently have one of our adapters & need a support I will help you as best as I can.
We will also have Throttle body Cover available very soon. This will be one possible way of hiding or covering your throttle body if your choice of air cleaners has exposed it.
If anyone ever has a problem with a product, I urge you to contact the manufacturer of said product. Problems can be resolved more easily if the manufacturer knows about it. Many manufacturers are not on forums very often, so a call may result in a quicker resolution.
Should anyone ever have a problem with an Accutronix product contact me & I will do everything in my power to resolve the issue. If I am not in (rare that I am not), anyone will be happy to try to help you.
Thank you,
