lt250 not sucking fuel
#1
lately my lt has been starting extremely hard like 30 kicks its been like 0 out and my bike probaly has about 130lbs of compression. well what will happen is ill kick it like 15 times and the plug will be completely dry iv been spraying gas into the airbox to get is to start but its just not right could it be that my exhaust is not restrictive enough?

it sound slike you filter is clogged in the gas petcock . take your tank off and drain as much fuel as you can . then unscrew the vavle . there is two filters in it try cleaning them . then when you put it back on , take the fuel line off the carb . turn the valve to open to make sure fuel comes out . if thats not it check the float in the carb . hope that helps .

well its getting fuel to the carb so do you think that the floats sticking and it not letting fuel through if so i should be able to whack the carb with something and get it moving temporarily and also i recently put in a set of single stage boyesen reeds but it started hard befor also could it be that i dont have enough back pressure

well getting fuel to the carb is good . it could be the float . might be easier to take the bowl off cause the passage is small . tapping might work . also 130lbs is kind of low . you might have a compression prob . did it ever back fire ? if so check the reeds again . mine did at little sahara and it blew apart my reeds . do a check for fuel . go from the cylinder back . reeds , carb , float ect like that . hope this helps .

well i really wasnt pleased whuth the quality of te reeds the werent flat when i got them and they make a crappy seal against the reed cage what reeds would you reccomend for durability and more bottom end and they have to fit the stock cage?

i would highly recomend carbon tech reeds . they are a high quality carbon fiber reed . also check the seal around the intake , reed cage , cylinder . if it leaks that also could cause you suck air . let us know if you get it fixed or if you got any more questions .
