Ight it took me a long time and alot of sinking my o6 rubicon in the river to figure this out. But if you take the seat off and remove the lil rubber cover that covers the carb. If you are standing at the back of the 4-wheeler looking at the carb. there will be 2 vent lines on the front one comes from the left side and folds over to the right and the other one comes from the right side and folds over the left. if you take a "Y" vent line connector (you can get them from any parts house) and connect them together and run one single line up to the gauge pod you will not have anymore probloms. I did the same and had a snorkit from www.triangleatv.com put on and i havent had a problum yet. (p.s. do not run your vent lines to you air box it will put a vacum on them and it will run like **** )

i used the triangle snorkel on mine too but it blocks the oil fill and dipstick so i did some modifying so it can be removed easily to access them. i bought a 2" to 2" rubber adapter and cut the bottom piece and removed a little section.
