Cory9584 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Posted January 8, 2008 How do you adjust the reeds? One reed seems to be opened more than the other and wont fit back in the hole without a spacer while the other one will. Quote
BigRed350x Posted January 8, 2008 Report Posted January 8, 2008 How do you adjust the reeds? One reed seems to be opened more than the other and wont fit back in the hole without a spacer while the other one will. Huh? Won't fit back into what hole? And how do you know that one of your reeds is opening more than the other?? Quote
Cory9584 Posted January 9, 2008 Author Report Posted January 9, 2008 I tried putting them back without the reed spacers and one fits in the hole fine and one isnt even close. If i switch them its the same thing, so its not an issue with the ports. If i hold them back to back one reed stop is bent open significantly more than the other side. Do i just bend them all the same? I feel like if i leave it im gonna have uneven performance between cylinders and possibly blow the engine again. Quote
gumby6t9 Posted January 9, 2008 Report Posted January 9, 2008 When you say "hole" do you mean cylinder??? Is this the first time you had this apart? I'm trying to comprehend what you are trying to say and I am assuming that one of the stock reed stops is bent way up as compared to the rest... Quote

IF your talking about the little curved pieces of metal that screw in on top of the reeds themselves then yeah, just bend them all about the same and you should be ok. Quote
