I remember taking one apart years ago to clean it and didn't pay any
attention to how it went back together.  I had no problems, and usually
there is a key of some sort if assembly matters.

So while cleaning the breather tower it came apart in my hands! There are
elliptical surfaces on the inner piece and in the outer piece.  There are no
guides so it can go back together however you push the inner piece in.

Anyone know if it matters how it goes back together?

Burned 2.1 is almost ready for a test run.
