I removed it and soaked it for a minute in a cup of boiling water. That worked.

The Breather Extension, as explained in one of Tim's videos, is A Good Thing, as Martha Stewart would have said.
I should have mentioned that. I have the breather mod up to the gas tank refill area. I tested it last month when I reseated the axle seals. It's good as new. thanks for the suggestion.
