After fixing a water pump issue on this motor, I finally got her started, however, after about 5 minutes you here sneeze or spit back for a second and then return to normal. I went through and cleaned the carbs, but still no luck fixing the sneeze/spit. I did a search and someone who had a similar issue said it could be the reed valves need cleaning. If it is the reed valves how do you get to them?
