I just picked up my first yamaha pwc, a 1999 gp1200..

The craft was used in salt water, but got flushed every time..
My questions are...
What is this white breather from, the hose is not attached to anything *see pic*

Second question i have is, i noticed a place to lube the jet system, i think i read about this before, do i need to do this now? is there more info on this forum? search did not come up with much for me...

Thank you guys.

The original Yamaha battery had a rubber tube that went from a port on the side of the battery to a breather port behind the seat. I suspect that is what you are showing in your photo, but it is difficult to tell. The original battery has probably long since been replaced and the replacement may not have this breather port. If you have a Yamaha battery or some of the other marine type batteries look on the side of the battery to see if there is a place to connect the tube. If not, I would not worry about it.
