rebuild kit is $20 new carb is ?
Hi, I recently purchased a 80's trx125 in need of work.Has been sitting outside for couple years.
Did get the engine to start using starting fluid.
Brakes need work, drive chain, frozen cables, rusted out gas tank, ripped seat and loose front end parts, water in pull start.
I tore the carb apart and lots of corrosion and rust, got it cleaned as good as possible. Ripped a couple orings and float bowl gasket, still pitted from the corrosion. Would it be better to buy a rebuild kit or a new carb off ebay?
thanks

Sounds like you are going to have alot of money in it when you are done. You might as well count on replacing all of the wheel bearings too.

You might be strong as an ox, but without a cart you are just a big dumb animal.
The carb I was looking at was a clone china carb around $30 on ebay.(Not sure on quality)
Seem to be a few threads on it, carb being a hit or miss on working right.
Hoosierlogger: Only paid $25 for it, figure can try to get it going. If it doesn't work out can always sell or part out.
thanks
Heck yeah you got alot of room before you spend too much on it then. The Chineese carbs are ok, I have one on my 110. It runs fine. Just take them apart and clean it real good before you put it on.

Hi, got the carb on friday. Finally got around to installing it. Haven't got it started yet, is the 125 three wheeler
manual the same as the trx125 minus front end parts?
thanks
thanks
Run the VIN and let me know the year. I will send you the correct TRX manual.
