Just above and behind the fill hole (large flat headed screw) is another screw. On mine it is not tightened down all the way.

Is this a vent screw in to the reservoir? Should it be down snug? Or is it supposed to be up? If so how far up and what is it's purpose. I found it pictured in the manual but not described.

It is the vent screw, and should be loose by 2 turns.

Once again thank you. That's about where it is. Questions that require no effort toward a repair are the best kind!
