soooo very aggravated, 6 trikes to run with all this sunshine,
one 250 es is dripping out the overflow
No time to fix it right.

Yanked off the fuel line from the tank to the carb,
let it spit all over me sneakers,
got more aggravated,
squeezed a little carb cleaner in the intake fuel line,
hit it with compressed air
and blew the particulate matter out of the float needle,
which is what I would have done io I took the sob off the machine.

Float bowl drain screw was loose and it blew chinks.

Runs perfectly now.

More harrmonius 4 stroke idle than the best rock and roll guitar solo.

Took less than 2 minutes.


...IF you feel lucky.

NOT recommended for the faint of heart.

ive done this many times also but make sure to set the regulator on the compressor and hold the throttle wfo to give the pressure somewhere to go and clean the jets out while your at it lol
