brand new here guys and already got a problem.........i pulled my kids 2001 blaster reeds out and the top reed stop was sucked back into cage towards carb...... i got to ask is this something that could happen to anyone? we rebuilt top end but didnt replace reeds. might that be the reason and where is the cheapest sight to get new replacement reeds? thank you for any help
 
the reed stop came loose. need to put locktite on those screws always. ebay is a good place to hunt. boysen reeds are the most popular. both the carbonfiber and the normal boysens are both good
 
thanks for the info guys i am a chevy 350 man but have new toys now that we live in north ga and i must learn the two stroke way...lol i have a warrior 350 and my boy had to have the blaster......dont laugh but i spent the last two days completely going through the carb and electricals trying to get the darn blaster to run again. went to take head off and pulled reeds and lordy it wasnt pretty
 
aftr looking into this a bit i realize the reeds dont have stos installed on them is that a big deal/ should i purchase them for the reeds when i get new reeds?

:-/ :-/ :-/ STOPS ?? My keyboard is sticky and miss a letter if I don't proof read. Running Vito's dual reeds, came with tabs to hold them, diddn't use stops.
