BREATHER VALVE
Remove the hose which carries expelled air from the
breather valve at the valve compartment cover, to the
air cleaner. Loosen the valve with pliers. Occasionally
the valve will lift out and remain insidethe hose. Wash
the valve (also the element) in a suitable solvent. Dry
and replace. The valve must work free and the hose
must not be restricted to prevent expelled air from re-
entering the crankcase. Install parts removed.
