carb question
« on: February 18, 2014, 12:54:06 PM »
Ok guys i have been searching for a carb for my 85 kx 250. Nowi finally found one but my problem is that it doesnt have a needle jet in it. I know it says it uses a 6dj1, but i cant find one anywhere. What other size or number can i use, this is kinda greek to me..

I'd stick with a 38mm carb off a 250 say 97 or older but that's just me.
Just make sure that the choke, fuel inlet, and adjustments are on the correct side or at least accessible.

The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

97 would be the cut-off as far as ease goes...after that they started using the power jet/solenoids.
Excuse me, ma'am...but you've got extremely nice legs!!!...what time do they open???                                                                                                               https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8tCgN3aryQ
