BigRed350x Posted June 13, 2011 Report Posted June 13, 2011 Worn out cages? Do you have a set of stockers you can put in and see if it does the same thing with them? Quote

If they were used, did they get put on facing the same direction as they were removed? If they were used, I wouldn't be concerned, just get a BRAND NEW set and install them correctly. That is the problem with used parts, they are used and are not going to give you the service life that a new part will. Quote
jbooker82 Posted June 13, 2011 Report Posted June 13, 2011 Are you getting any coughing or back firing through the carb. That can break them and suck them in to the engine. It doesnt take much of one to toast a set of reeds. Quote
