Pam,
It's important that that hose is clear and the check valve is installed the correct way and not jammed. If you place your mouth on the end of the hose where it's disconnected you should be able to suck air freely through it. You should not be able to blow through the hose, the check valve should snap shut. If it works backwards then someone has installed it backwards, turn it around. If you can both suck and blow through it then it's stuck open. If you can neither suck nor blow then it's stuck closed or the hose is clogged. If it works dandy then I'd check out the bigger hose that attaches to the same nipple on the valve cover, it's probably clogged up. It should just be wide open all the time so you should be able to blow through it easily. Be gentle when you remove and attach those hoses. The bigger hose is very hard to find for replacement and the black plastic nipple and check valve get old and brittle and break very easily. Cheers
