Z250 hard to start
Hello,
Recently I was going to take out my Z250 but it wouldn't start. The temp was cold but i had the gas on prime and full choke, it would start, then die after about five seconds. This is a 2004 z250, all stock, i recently changed the oil and cleaned the filter, sometime around august, and probably not ten hours on it since. any help would be appreciated. thanks

There are a couple things I have noticed about the Z250s and their starting problems. If it wont start at all fill the tank completely. Mine did that once, started then died and refused to start again. It was just because it was out of gas (well I could see gas in there but I geuss it was just low enough) Turned it to reserve and she fired right up. Try choke half way also and if she wont stay idleing after that then turn up your idle so that she idles soundly and does not try to stall on you. Anything below 20 degrees and she will give you some trouble starting. If this still doesnt work then you may have a cogged jet in the carb or your choke cable could be out of adjustment. And remember that if you change the idle screw set it back to normal once she is fully warmed up.
Hope this helps...
