Hello All,
Brand new to the site. Hope someone can point me in the proper direction on my questions. A '91 RMX 250, FMF Fatty, Rad Valve, Keihin 36 pwk carburetor and a port job. This bike was purchased for my son in a not running condition. We replaced reeds, plastic, pressure test engine etc..ran great and. A outing to the beach seized the engine. LA Sleeve did sleeve and supplied piston etc. Assembled, broke in at 32:1, ran great...NOW, at 40:1 it blubbers off idle, isn't snappy and has poor throttle response! Keinhin came with #55 idle jet, #188 main jet and needle on 2nd clip from top.. I have no clue what I am doing. I am going to take carb back to specs it was supplied with; #55 idle, #165 main and ?? on clip position. I purchased new Boysen pro reeds although old ones look ok, I guess! Why did this thing seem to go from ok to funky?? I, obviously am not a M/C guy. :bang:
HELP, Stuart.
