Tony i have been looking all over. I have three TY250's that need new internals. Do you have a weblink to the specific part? The part number you provided above, did not work for me. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Darren Seattle, WA

Thanks Goudrons, thats exactly the issue! FIxed! Next issue! Got the bike started, warmed up, went for the first test spin on the street. (just want the bike to run a bit) Runs good! Only thing I need to look into, once I turned the headlight on to high beam, and came to a stop sign, when I went to come back onto the gas to get moving, the bike didnt want to rev back up... It didnt die, but it sounded bogged. Craziest thing. I turned the headlight off, and she started revving again? Would that be a stator problem?

Goudrons, Thanks for the reply. I'll tear the carb apart tonight for a minimum of a good cleaning! How do i "set the float height"?

Hi all, I've been riding dirtbikes and streetbikes my whole life, but am 100% new to the trials world. I picked up a 76 Yamaha TY250 last night here in the Seattle, WA, USA area. Brought it home and went inside to eat dinner. about an hr later i could smell fuel in the house. Drats. Went out to find a puddle of fuel under the bike. Fuel was accidentally on reserve, not off (still not good to find this much fuel on the floor) I come back out and find more fuel so i take a further look and the the bottom of the float bowl, the drain is dripping 1 drop of fuel every 2 seconds. Here is my question... does that mean I have a dirty or faulty float needle? Or does that mean that I have a faulty petcock, and it simply cannot turn off the fuel, so the fuel has no where to go but out the bottom of the carb? Thanks in advance, this is my first post to TC, and I did run a search before posting. Thanks again, Darren Seattle WA
