==Notes==
 
The Chosen One can actually avoid the damage from the fumes without having to wear a set of power armor. For that, one has to keep saving every few seconds, and every time the player character gets damage, load the savegame. By doing so, the interval between one charge of damage and the other will be reset, and the Chosen One will have more time to push on.
 
Rad X prevents the damage too.

Fix the mine's air purifier is a side quest in Fallout 2. To complete it, the Chosen One must retrieve the mine air purifier parts from New Reno, and then go into the mine itself to fix the purifier.

Quick walkthrough

Speak to Zaius
Travel to New Reno and speak to Renesco about the part. 
Go back to Broken Hills and speak to Zaius. 
Repair the air purifier. 
Report back to Zaius. 
Reward: 1000 XP, a combat shotgun or 500 dollars 

Detailed walkthrough

Talk to Zaius inside the house outside the Broken Hills mine's entrance. He will tell the Chosen One the mine needs parts for the air purifier and asks him to go to New Reno to pick them up. He can either take the reward for money, or decline and receive a combat shotgun when finishing the quest.

The mine purifier can not be fixed without the right parts so make sure the Chosen One does this quest before the who killed Richard Wright quest in New Reno.

Talk to Renesco the Rocketman in New Reno. Tell him Zaius' password. If the Chosen One doesn't, he'll need to fork over $200 for the parts ($100 with a Barter or Speech check).

Return to Zaius and he will ask the Chosen One to enter the mine to fix the purifier. The mine is filled with radon gas, which will damage the Chosen One and his party for about 5 points of damage every few steps. If the player character uses Rad-X or any of his followers have power armor equipped, it will negate the damage. Use the parts on the clanking machine in the back (But watch out for the deathclaw!) for 1000 XP.

Rewards

Return to Zaius and he will give the Chosen One a City-Killer combat shotgun or $500 if he asked for a reward earlier.
