I’m still chasing carb issues…….. Leaks around the bowl gasket. Random spewing of fuel out the overflow hose.
Does anyone know if a carb from a 75 MX250 will fit and function on my 75 DT250? The inlet/air filter side of the carb looks huge in comparison. But I can’t tell if it would fit on my intake.

I always check the float body chamber gasket area with a straight edge to see how warped it is.... Most are. Then i file or sand it flat especially on each corner. Doesn't have to be perfect. Then i always use a good quality thick gasket. Not the paper thin cheap stuff for sale on e-bay. Works every time.
