Ha ha, hadn't seen that until i expanded it up to read the writing. Hell that was a long time ago!!. Man we thought those bikes were 'just great', such a willing motor & quite a step up from a tweaked up DT2 trail bike.

So here's a problem that has been resolved, but still bugs me. Pulled and cleaned the mx360 carb, put things back together and had fuel flow from petcock, down the tube, but when fuel line was hooked up to carb...no flow??? Drove me nuts and then I ended up using the spare carb I had as it was in better overall shape. Racked my brain and decided to just be happy it was back to normal. What would cause that other than obvious stuff, it was like a weird vaccum or pressure thing. ??

Float could have been hung up... or bowl vents plugged (rare)

Or often it's simply clear fuel line... sometimes it looks like nothing is flowing and line stays full of air but it's actually just fine. Cure is to use black fuel line. ;)
