The manual I have says there should be 4 bolts holding the Valve Tappet Cover in place. Mine has only 2 (and there does not appear to be any place for 2 others). It also has a copper tube the comes out and makes a 90 degree turn, but does not appear to connect to anything. Anyone out there have the same configuration? What's the purpose of this copper tube? Thanks, Keysdiver |

The copper tube is the crankcase breather. It should end just in front of the flame trap on the carb. A lot of P60's have 2 bolts holding on the tappet cover. Hope this helps Ernie |

Ernie, Thanks for the info. Mine looks to be kinda bent up, I'll see what I can do about reshaping it. |
