[QUOTE="dodgedogjb, post: 165604, member: 24246"] I recently had a very similiar problem. After buying a used 2000 YZ 250 I rode it twice with no problems and it ran great. Before I was about to take the third ride the bike wouldn't start. I tried cleaning the plug but it wouldn't start. A new plug fixed the problem, but only temporarily. I consulted this forum and was told of several things to try. I also consulted my friend who has lots of experience. He simply said...it needs a smaller jet weathers different now. I bought a 168 (stock was 170) and now it runs perfectly. He also advised on getting several different sizes for different weather and riding conditions. My advice...before you tear into the motor, or clean the carb, or anything major....try a smaller jet. It will likely fix your problem and if not you at least ruled it out and it only cost you a few $$. I live very close to the coast so weather conditions change quite dramitically and it really amazed me how much of a difference that small change could make. Good Luck.:cool: [/QUOTE]
