[QUOTE="jeffh, post: 872506, member: 31810"] CSL, My 03 kx250 stuck WFO on the trail and I went down the hard way!!! It had stuck 2-3 times since new but I hit the kill,restarted & it would run fine. Over the course of 5-6 more rides it stuck at will during which time I had a qualified mechanic... -Inspect & clean carb (3 times) -Install PC carb vent & PC filter seal -Silicone seal boot connection to airbox -Replace throttle cable, housing & tube -Check cable routing -Check for air leaks in bottom end I called one of the Midwest's top two stroke tuners and he was sure it was "a piece of dirt or grit in between the slide & the body & that it could be like finding a needle in a haystack".Made sense to me. The factory "wild guessed" the Throttle Position Sensor may be faulty.Defaulting wide open? Scary thought. After 32 years of riding I was not enjoying it, wondering when the RIDE may be on. I decided to try a new carb before trading in. After a 10+ rides with new carb all seems fine. It has changed how I ride & think on a bike. Good luck & I hope you find the fix. [/QUOTE]
