GZ250 Carburetor Clogged again!

BigBoss319 · 08-30-2016, 11:05 PM

I got the carb cleaned professionally and it ran fin since Friday but now it's clogged again and I don't know what to do. The fuel is fine since I drained it and refilled it 3 times before the cleaning. The gas tank looked clean with no rust too. I'm taking it in again and hopefully they don't try to charge me for the same job twice. Any suggestions other than an inline filter to prevent this from happening?

Basically what happened was I was riding home from school and then all of a sudden my bike died and it wouldn't start without choke and started having the same symptoms again. Really getting tired of this.

It may not be ALL of the problem, but you might want to try the pilot screw. The factory specs are terribly lean. Loosen out to 3 1/2 turns or so and see if that helps at all.
