There were some crap breathers about a while back, especially the SS ones from memory. If you can get the circlip out and dig out whatever is in there ( I had one that was filled to bursting with swarf :shock: ), replace it with some scrunched up Scotchpad, check you can blow through it and replace the disc and circlip.
