    Cracked Reed??

    Is it possible that you can loose compression through a cracked reed? And if so how would this make the motor run? How can I check to see if the reeds are cracked? 1998 175 Evinrude Intruder (EL175GLECD) Thanks Joe

    Not likely at all that this has happened to you, but the only way to know is to pull the carbs off and maybe on a little futher till you can see them good....
