    yes the 225 doesn't use a decomp cable, you just flip the lever up on the cylinder head and pull the rope. the switch will fall back down as you pull the rope so you need to flip it up every time you go to pull her to start. no electric starter? i hate pull starting mine, its a bear to start up if its been sitting for a few weeks.

    Got some more spec books in the mail which happened to include the YTM225DR, spark plug gap spec is 6mm. Sadly the DX specs page is missing, they were such terrible books (binders), I bought 4 and lots of overlap, and still missing a fair number of pages :-/. Anyway, pretty sure the DX and DR has the same ignition specs/parts.

    Suggest you order a new one while they’re still available and get the old one out. There’s a strainer basket in there that needs to be cleaned and you probably didn’t get all the old oils out.
    It sucks to get old

    Now the next thing is wiring the kill switch because that ain't working. Also it's a real pain to get into and out of reverse. Amy thoughts? PS I feel like I hijacked this thread but everyone has been so helpful
