Float Chamber Height Adjustment?-power loss symptoms - Page 2

Dirt Dobbers like to build their dirt fortresses in mufflers also, will stop a muffler completely up. It is hard to say what the problem is with your bike Canuck, there could be a few reasons for what you are experiencing. Loss of compression, Too much or too little gas, exhaust could be stopped up (though not completely or you would know it).

Well after thorough analysis... im wondering if i put a little to much Seafoam in the tank?

Gonna empty ...fill up on 89-92 octane without the sea foam...adjust my float heights to 13mm and see what happens.. if not i got a carb coming from arthur illinois. Luckily it was the only carb on ebay from a gz250 with 7500 kms on it...

WISH ME LUCK on plan A and B... haha....

ughhhhhh: :cuss:

Well after all the attempts to fix this problem, my best solution was to order a used carb from illinois.
Once that baby was in, the blue dragon fired up without hesitation and rode like a new bike.

Thanks for the troubleshooting help anyways guys
