Breather Design
The breather system is designed to control the amount
of oil in the head area and still maintain the necessary
vacuum in the crankcase. The system consists of an
plus a spring steel reed, retainer, breather cover
and breather hose mounted on the outside of the
crankcase. See Figure 9-20. When the pistons move
downward, crankcase gasses pass through a passage
into the inner chamber, in turn air is pushed past the
reed into intake system. The upward travel of the
pistons closes the reed and creates a low vacuum in
the lower crankcase, in the process separating the oil
chamber.
