[Tekawte1]

Hey all! I have a new 1986 kx 250 cylinder, i was wondering if anyone knew off hand what all years and models it will fit? thanks!

[Slingblade]

86-87 Tecate 3 wheeler and 86 kx 250. Not 100% sure, but I think that is all.

85-6 KX250, 86-7 Tecate KXT250.

ok Thanks! anyone else got any info or is this it? i've had it for awhile and used to know but... memory loss happened.. lol!

[ezmoney1979]

ok Thanks! anyone else got any info?
Yeah, its worth $10 but I will give you $20 for it.

[Tekawte1]

HAHA! yeah ok. :lol:

[Tekawte1]

ughh. opps.. its an 1985 cyl.

I knew all this a few years ago, but like you I suffered memory loss. But I was thinking the 85 was a one year specific deal to the KX.

Something about the powervalve is different on the 85 KX vs the 86 KX, 86-87 KXT IIRC. Try checking Cheap Cycle Parts and cross reference the part #'s.

Maybe the 85 will work if you use that year powervalve set-up.?? I swear I can't remember crap..

Hey stranger, when are you actually going to finish that thing and come riding with us again........

[deathman53]

it will fit on the 87-88 tecate 4 also. The powervalves themselves are different, they a set to open/close at different times, kx making the most high rpm power(opening the earliest) the atv cylinders have the pv being stiffer and not opening as quickly(opens much slower).

[Tekawte1]

Ahh ok. Thanks for the info! I appreciate it!

[ezmoney1979]

You may want to use PMs for this crap. That and the 87-8 Tecate has a smaller bore.

[RoscoW]

It's gone,:rolleyes: (thank goodness) I sent a PM.

[Tekawte1]

GOOD! wheew!
