Check it out, My 78 DT250 project is soldiering forward..
I just finished replacing the little end bearing, rings, seals, a bent shift shaft, primary and lighting coils, points, condenser, battery, and did a little carb tweaking.
I still have the problem of fouling plugs and running four-stroke style at middle and high rpms - hammering and missing a lot. Part of me wants to replace the iginition coil; I couldn't get an ohm reading between the plug connect and the coil mounting plate. No Bueno per Clymer's. If that doesn't work, I'd like to buy a fresher carby.. any leads on a new corb and coil would be handy...
PS: I call it the Mollusk on account of that species' penchant to climb over anything. Here's to fixing the bike up enough to do the same!
