Re: GZ250 not working found hanging hose from carb.
Hold on and I will dig up a picture, so I don't tell you wrong.
Try google while I get this for you. I have had to jump across relays and starters on a lot of different autos for years.

Re: GZ250 not working found hanging hose from carb.
Down the manual, from this site, go to page 172 6-11.
I could not find the picture that I wanted. I will jump mine tomorrow and take a picture for you. Thanks for the quick feedback. Jerry

Re: GZ250 not working found hanging hose from carb.
The main issue is why did it stop???
Whatever made it stop is also what is keeping it from starting. I know you said you checked the fuses, but... looking at them will not always tell you if it is good. Jerry

Re: GZ250 not working found hanging hose from carb.
A test light and a cheap meter are worth their weight in gold. If you don't have either one you are just guessing in many cases. Great for trouble shooting.

Certainly worth looking at it to be sure the wires are still connected..........but given the experience level of the owner, I still think the shop would be the best choice after that. :cool: Either way, good luck! Oh, and yes, without a meter or at least a test light, his efforts are going to be pretty much in vain. Even jumping the solenoid won't do much good because.........what are you going to do next ??

Have you double checked the kill switch is on?

Re: GZ250 not working found hanging hose from carb.
yes i have and i found the problem. i guess this little plastic switch that moves when you disengage the clutch wasnt fully operating, i took my bike too the mechanic and he said if it doesnt start, just flick the thing and it should start fine. which it did, so im going to get it replaced tomorrow which is only costing me $40

Re: GZ250 not working found hanging hose from carb.
Why don't you try and clean it up? Spray it with WD-40 or CRC and see if you can get it to work. I don't think you can take it apart and get to the innards of it, can you? I don't have a GZ anymore to look at it.
