gas in oil...next steps?

alazlam · 11-23-2016, 06:28 PM

Hello,

I bought a '99 GZ250 last week for $1000. Everything checked out pretty good. Stopped for gas last night for the first time and it wouldn't start after. Crankcase smelt of oil so I search around here to find answers. I checked the peacock and it is functioning fine. Then I took the carbs apart and cleaned them. There were some small black flecks floating around from about .5mm to 2mm in size. Right now I have the oil/gas drained out and I'm waiting on an oil filter and fuel filter before trying to start it again. Is there anything else I should do/consider?
