Hey Guys,

Shade Tree mechanic here trying to do a little work on an 03 TTR 225. The guy let it sit all winter without stabelizing the fuel. The bike starts just fine but doesn't want to idle. It also pours gas out on the floor thru the over flow when you turn the gas on. I took the carb out and cleaned everything but the float and needle. I am guessing that the float and needle aren't working correctly. Just wanted some input.

Thanks,

Jethro

 

The leaking fuel definitely indicates stuck floats. Time to pull the carb again.
