28-11 Roll-Over Vent Valves
Refer to R66 Illustrated Parts Catalog (IPC) Figure 28-1.
WARNING
R66 roll-over vent valves contain two anodized aluminum balls,
the orientation of which are critical to vent valve function. The
gold hollow ball on top (earlier ball was blue) floats and seals the
vent in the event of inadvertent over-filling or in-flight sloshing.
The red solid ball on the bottom presses the hollow ball against
the vent seat if the aircraft is inverted.
