I was a member of 3ww some years ago, when I was building my tri-z. Since then, I had to sell it, and lost all info for this site. As my love for three wheelers has never faltered, and luck would have it, I am proud to say I'm the new owner of an 84' kawasaki Tecate kxt 250! This site is absolutely amazing and I can not begin to say how valuable. Thanks again for the addition to the family. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170228/001713046f371c8b6066cd87034a3a87.jpg

It's running like crap, and when I picked it up, had no where to get on it, but the price was right, and .....I mean come on. .......never see these sitting at the side of the road, so I had to jump on it. I am going to tear the carb apart, and drain the tank tomorrow. It's running really rich, and the guy who found it in pieces was a real old timer who I am sure only "got it running " and didn't even get it warmed up enough to break it in or adjust it correctly. It looks like he did the top end correctly, but also in following the instructions, mixed it 20:1, so I'm sure that plays a role in some of the problems. Starts right up every time in 2 kicks though. It's leaking a little fuel out the over flow, and always seems like it's flooded once it's started, so my money is on a stuck float, or gummed up seat on the inlet needle valve. Also I'm looking for some small misc parts (almost everything has been discontinued). Nothing big, as it's almost all there, but some little things. Thanks again.
