    1995 175 xri replacement reeds

    What’s the best replacement reeds a 1995 175xri motor. Motor has a rough idle. Got to looking at the reeds. They no longer make a seal. Time for some new ones. Not looking to make hp. Just a good replacement. Thanks

    I’ve used TDR reeds in every engine I’ve built for last 20 years from 11,000 rpm alky motors to recreation , IMO best reed on the planet ....

    I’ve run Boysen and TDR with great success, may try Chris Carson next time I need a set, I’ve heard good about him too.
    1995 Allison XB-2003 225 Super Mag. It's slow and I'm ok with that.

    I also used Chris Carson Reeds. I really like them. Idle is much better, holeshot is smooth and powerful. All Good!

    If you would, please take a moment to review the Announcements at the top of the Forum, and be sure to provide the Required Info (serial number) when posting. Thanks!

    I use TDR (and sell them) as they've provided an excellent balance of performance, durability, cost, and fitment for me and my customers.

    Ended up using CCMS reeds. Noticeable improvement. Idles much better. Overall performance is better.
