My FLHTCI 01 leaks oil from the air filter onto the cam cover and blows back while riding. The service mech. changed the crank case lines to the 02 model, but the leak continues and now hits the $34 harley jeans on a run. If the 01's were ok why did the Company change the routeing for the 02's? thanks for any help.

Is this all the time or right after an oil change?

Do a search for "oil puking" there was a thread by Rustler.

Oil level is critical in particular when running HD or other fossil oil. Once this has been checked and rechecked and triple checked, you can align the oil pump and replace the breather manifold with the new type with no crossover. If you still have a problem you could install the new type one piece umbrella valves. On a 01 bike that is stock or stage 1 it is likely overfilled.
