    Clutch not working

    Yup I will do that. Is a new cable needed? And what is that clutch tool do? I did my yz250 without any special tools. I know it's not the same but it is the only thing I can compare to. Thanks for the help

    Clutch not working

    Awk, who knows what she does when she rides. When I bought the damn thing she said she would not get on it. Now she comes with me, I take my Kawasaki 300 dirt bike, and she tears up the trails with me. Haha today I started it and let it warm and it seemed to run around fine. I will order a...

    Clutch not working

    Me and my fiancé were outriding and everything was fine but today I was washing her blaster and noticed the clutch wasn't working. I would pull in the clutch lever but it wasn't rolling. I adjusted all I could but at the clutch lever perch, but still won't work. Do I need a new clutch, or is...

    Blaster plug

    First off my blaster runs great. Some smoke when I start it but not much while running. I use caster 927. Pulled my plug and it is some what black and wet? What should I do?

    Problems with a yz 250

    The oil is that maxima 80wt I was told? This is what I did: I ordered a new tusk clutch kit and installed it. When I dropped the oil it smelled like burnt motor oil. Not like gear oil. I installed the new discs and friction plates even though the old ones looked fine and stacked together they...

    Problems with a yz 250

    I pulled the clutches out, they look ok. No burns or scratches. So I'm thinking that the clutch could be gone? Or the clutch is staying engaged a bit therefore not transferring the power to the wheel. It's like maybe the clutches and steel plates don't have enough pressure holding them together...

    Problems with a yz 250

    So I got a 97 yz 250, the motor sounds great. When you put it in gear the bike barely moves regardless of how much throttle you give it. Pull the clutch in and it revs again like it should and sounds mean with clutch pulled in. Let it out, and again while in gear, barely moves. Like I could run...

    My ride is running great.

    I bought it for 700 in march and after doing a top end, reeds, and rebuilding the carb and getting all the leaks sealed up and tors removal my blaster is running. I kinda got tired if working on it cause I couldn't get it running right a couple months ago. But today I got out there and adjusted...

Carb needle is in middle position, air mixture screw 2 turns out. The new idle screw is all the way in. It idles fine...

    Tors removal

    Don't know how that not got in there. I meant to ask if everything just goes back exactly the same on the new cable, like the spring and slide. Also does anyone know what I have to do with the tors wires? And where am I suppoesed to tap into the carb to put the idle screw?

    Tors removal

    I ordered the Vito's tors removal kit. I am removing my old throttle cable and tors (dumb ass brick). Any helpful tips or hints are greatly appreciated. First thing I am wondering is if the spring and everything not the throttle slide go back just like before but now just with the new cable...

    High idle.

    Ok, let me say the 1/4 inch was a guestimate. I do know that when I turn my tors screw clockwise the slide opens. So I turned it counter clockwise and that seemed to close it as much as it could. It's still open but not a lot. I will measure it later to give exact measurement. The tors is...

    High idle.

    Ok guys need some help. So I leak tested, found the leak by the intake boot. Fixed it and checked to see if it would hold psi and it stayed steady at 7psi. Put the darn thing back together and fired it up and it idled super high. Pulled it apart and checked my float height and it's at 21mm. Tors...

    Leak test

    Well thanks man. I hope that will be it and then just jetting next. I don't want to speak too soon but I only have 950 dollars in this machine total. It's been fun getting it running right. I may buy another and do it again.
