Default some help please

hey guys i have just bought my first zt and i must admit i love it. but i need some help with a couple of things which is how do i adjust the handbrake as when i pull it on it still rolls forward so now i have to leave it in gear. also i noticed that i was getting a smell of burning oil so i opened the bonnet and seen fumes coming out of under the plastic cover which says v6 on it so i took it off and there are 3 breather pipes that are not connected to anything. any help is much appreciated.

thanks

john

Hi John, welcome,


have a look here for the handbrake
http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/index.php?thepage=howto

The three pipes you can see should join together with a plastic T piece. they are a breather from the rear bank, a breather from the front bank that join together and go into the throttle manifold
