[QUOTE="taxxman2k, post: 672112, member: 47428"] Well I tried some searching and I still have some questions. Some might be able to be answered others maybe not ?? Background: I got a 87 Husky 250 WR. Two previous owners, last is a friend. Can't answer all my questions. I am new to the two stroke world (as far as working on them). 1) I have called all over and no one can tell me the fuel mixture. Manual says 4% doing the math I come up with 25:1 that seems rich is this true? 2) recently flooded - drained it all out and got it fired up again, gearbox lube was milky (white as elmers glue) so I flushed it and it is still milky(tan), how many times would you flush? Or could there be something different happening here? 3) Idle - doesn't. I have played with the idle screw and it does nothing for this bike. There is a screw ont he other side that I cannot figure out what it does and have played with it and it does nothing. Only solution was to adjust the throttle cable and it works, but I know this isn't right. 4) sometimes the throttle sticks open, cable seems fine and if I drop it in gear it will come back down, why would it rev like that if the trottle returns to idle possition? 5) starting - other than the kick being on the wrong side, I cannot get it to start by kicking it, we did in the beggining after getting it out of storage for 3 years, but now when it is cold I have to run pushing it and jump on and drop it in 2nd a few times to get it to go? I think this is it for now :) other than that it is a great bike to ride, I am already having a blast on it in the woods and on the trails if I play with the throttle and don't let it die. I appriciate any help or direction you can give me... [/QUOTE]
