94 KDX 250 carb problem

Post by Ron-e »

Carb has a problem with the float. Float sticks in the on and off position. Will run but @ times dumps fuel out of the bowl over flow & vent tubes. If times float needle will stick in off position, I think. When the bike runs out of gas or fuel is shut off the engine goes into a hi rev (2 -3000 rpm) with throtle closed, mode until it runs dry. I have set the float level several times and have had very little success with the fuel over flow or the run out when fuel is blocked from carb. Waiting on carb kit with new float needle. Any one else had the hi rev problem when the carb runs out of gas? :?

Most definitely. the high rev is from the AF mixture leaning out.

Carb kit? You didn't buy one of those "keyster" carb kits, I hope....

Keyster? Bought from Sudco for my Suzuki PJ series . Just a float needle and some bowl screws and gaskets, new air mixture screw. Extent of their carb rebuild kits.
