ive pulled the plug and its allways got fuel on it

**slothminx** · 10-03-2005, 05:41 PM

could be flooded then. take the plug out and take it iff the lead set the kill switch to off and turn the engine over for about 20 secs

dry that plug off pop it back in and see if she fires, i would think that 120psi would make it fire up fine

give it full throttle when you try to start it aswell

if nothing try half throttle.

Carb needs a rebuild i guess?

anyone know if the fork boots for a tri z will fit the fork boots on the tri moto 125 forks? also these forks are just spring forks right there no fluid or seals in them?
