Need your opinion about replacing the original Reed Valves in my 1986 Evinrude 30 hp.

Thank you jimmbo. I just redid the quick putting my palm over the carburetor intake while idling. No more gas droplets on my hand. I still need to add in the Sea Foam. To both fuel tanks. Is there a idle air bleed path in the carburetor ?

Well the Sea Foam cleaned out the idle & low speed system. I had idled around for about 1 hour. With no need to do a WOT to clean off erratic low end missing. WAAAHOOOO another happy 2 stroke owner. Might even put in the normal cooler heat range of sparkplugs.

Seafoam gets good and bad comments all the time. Personnaly i don't abuse it but it certainly cleared up surging on my snowblower :)
