Breather
The
GTS 200 engine uses a breather valve to control and
maintain a partial vacuum in the crankcase.
The breather valve is a fiber disc or reed valve which closes
on the piston’
s up stroke and opens on the piston’
s down
stroke to keep a partial vacuum in the crankcase.
This partial vacuum prevents oil leakage past piston rings,
valve guides, oil seals, governor lever shaft and gaskets.
Remove Breather
1. Before
breather can be removed, remove fuel tank,
extended oil fill tube, blower housing, flywheel, and
muffler.
