Details
Enter Broken Hills, and go straight to the mine to fix the air purifier. Be sure to tell Zaius that you have the purifier to fix the mine. (Oh yes, be sure to have the purifier with you too.) The mine contains poisonous gases, so you need to either have Power Armor, Dermal Impact Armor, or Salvatore's oxygen apparatus with you. Since you have Power Armor, everything will be okay.

Go in and kill all of the critters in the mine. The purifier is in the northeastern section of the mine. Simply use the parts there to fix the air purifier. After you've fixed it, talk to Zaius to get your reward. Also, if you want, Marcus can join you as an NPC.

Also, in the mine, if you go directly to the east and through the wall, you will meet this airplane pilot. When you go there, the pilot will wake up. Ask him who is he, and he'll leave afterwards. You'll get a good bit of experience for finding him.

Head for Vault City. Leave the car there, and walk by foot towards the Raider Base. There is a bug which can (and probably will) make the car permanently disappear.
