[QUOTE="Mac, post: 155533, member: 18503"] [b]Re: reeds[/b] Reeds act like a one way valve. When the piston travels upward it creates a vacuum underneath it which causes the reeds to open and let air/fuel into the cylinder which is stored below the piston in the crankcase. After combustion the piston travels downward creating high pressure under the piston which causes the reeds to close and the air/fuel to travel from the crankcase through the ports past the closed reeds and to the top of the piston....repeat. Some reeds open farther with less pressure which helps throttle response. [/QUOTE]
