Just in the nic of time!!

In the quest to find out why my blaster is idling high when warm i decided to strip the carb off earlier today and re-seal the reed housing with sealant.

Really good job i did as i found this:

Safe to say i now undid all the screws and applied a dab of thread lock 8-|

ohhhh that was lucky!!

 

[gizzy2014]

that woulda been bad...... the tips looks alittle chipped to me???

 

[Herpderplol]

Reeds are a lil crisp at the ends, must have run a little long and they heated up eh?

 

[Awk08]

nice save bro !!!!

 

[RatchetMonkey]

Yeah the ends are nackard, need to order some replacements as soon as possible.

It was being held on by less that a quarter of a turn .

Is anyone else running a pyramid reed?

 

[blasterdemon7]

You got lucky on that one.

 

[Wifesblaster]

How do you like the pyramid reeds?

 

[RatchetMonkey]

To be honest i've not used anything else as i bought my blaster with this reed already installed so i don't know any different as of yet.

Trying to get it running 100% before i add anymore goodies onto it

 

[Face78]

Lucky....

Dont see pyramid reeds that often any more!

 

[woodrow wilson]

Definitely in the nic of time!!

I had a set of pyramid reeds, they worked well but not comparable to vforce at all, i sold the Duncan's to my buddy an went with vf4 an wow night an day, my opinion there isn't enough tip surface on the Duncan's

So did you count the number of turns left before total mayhem?
