Re: Valve adjustment for the GZ250

Yes. When I got it back the first time, I indicated I suspected that they hadn't really done the 3K service as detailed in the manual because there was no itemization or charge for a valve inspection/adjustment. (I also found oil in the drain tube from the air box and it was obvious no one had looked at the spark plug.) They claimed they "HAD" done one for "free" but I didn't really buy it. The second "fix" was a complete eff-up, they just basically said, "Yep, it's f*cked." But, the THIRD time, it really was fixed - carb clean, emmisions, valve adjustment. Not sure what actually fixed it, but it's running real good again. Idles real nice and no stalling. I can drop the choke off after a few minutes or so, and only need half choke to get it started. No funny racing around and idling drift.
