I replaced my head with a non-jet head from Clearwater heads and I didn't spend $375 !!!

You mentioned the reed valve, you can get rid of that thing, it is useless. I took off the pipe from the manifold to the carb, cut the pipe, inserted a Chuck e Cheese token and screwed it back in, it works perfect.

Since the malfunctioning reed valve was dumping a bunch of crap into your carb, I suggest give it a good cleaning with plenty of your favorite carb cleaner.

Good Luck <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
