low mpg

Post by ethanfoster »

I have 95 kdx200h and it seems it uses way to much gas unless I go at a moderate pace. Also my floatbowl sticks every once in a while causing me to lose tonnes of gas, does anyone have an answer?

The float needle/seat may be gunky..causing it to pass gas ('scuse me) even when the floats are saying, 'FULL!' That seat can be cleaned, the float needle can be replaced.

If 'floatbowl sticks' means you think the FLOAT is sticking..it's more likely RUBBING on something it shouldn't be because it's BENT on one side or the other.


....or both.

Check for NO interference, check the float needle/seat condition.
