HI there,

That vent should never have to be cleaned.

It is made to vent at 3 psi and allow air in at .5 hg.

If there is any type of dirt around it, simply clean off with some brake cleaner and reevaluate.

For your track usage, the fluid level should be check AFTER driving for 1/2 hour.

Allthebest, c4c5
