Task #17 - Crankcase Breather
The air cleaner case hase a small tube in the bottom that allows the engine crankcase to vent. Attached to this tube is a plastic sleeve that catches any oils and crud that is vented. This tube should be cleaned out during every routine maintenance check. Also, as mentioned in the air cleaner section, if you drive through a lot of rain or dust, then you should also clean out the inside of the case as well as the vent tube.
Clean Crankcase Breather:

1. locate the tube at the bottom of the air cleaner housing on the back side.
2. With a pair of narrow needle-nose pliers, squeeze the clip holding the drain trap in place(1) and pull it off.
3. Clean the trap and the drain tube on the case and then reinstall the trap, using the pliers to hold the clip open until the trap is seated on the drain.
