    Great job explaining to the uniformed how the reed valves work and why regular maintenance and inspections are important. I especially go over everything preseason so I HOPEFULLY don't have issues come up during the short riding season. Scope is perfect tool for that job!!

    So this is crazy, but went out for the first rip Thanksgiving day and the thing just kept falling on its face. I called it quits and headed home. Finally figured out that a plastic thread protector from a spark plug got dropped in the air box, sucked through the carb, and was bouncing around in the reeds. If I let off the throttle it would fall back out and it would rip for a 1/4 mile, then it would get sucked up against the reeds again and fall on its face. So frustrating, but an easy fix in the end.

      Though unlikely, if I big enough reed flap breaks off, yeah it COULD happen. The most wild thing I've seen is a piece of belt fragments blow and somehow end up in the intake and get sent through the engine, and blow the rod through the bottom of the block!

Don't know why yet, but obviously some major mechanical failure. Still can't rule out bad crank seals. Maybe something in the crankcase broke and went up into the piston though. I did however observe extreme heated spark plugs.....very white on the ends.
