Re: Air-box/breather-box -- different or the same thing? 900 94

Not the same. The air box houses the air filter. The breather box is a black oval/box contraption under the intake on a shelf on the left (driver's) side of the block at the rear under intake runner 3 and 4. It is connected to the flame trap, if you have one (ie non-turbo). Bad seals? It sits on two O-rings and is bolted to the block with 2 12 mm bolts. I am not sure how they arrived at this but I bet it was just a revenue generator. I doubt they had a close look. I have never worried about the o-rings on mine.
