Default RE: Write-up: DLE-20 reed valve block mod

A reed that is not properly sealed can cause an engine to run erratic, cause hard starts due to fuel not being drawn up into the carb due to air leaks. Those plastic flaps need to lay flat on the block and seal any air leaks. Hence the refining of the surfaces.
