Thank you ...I am about to start rebuilding mine. Greetings from Pakistan

Excellent video, thanks for making it

I was looking forward to it from Japan.

great content ... thank you

I'm dying to see that xr250r up and running

Perfecto

The screws holding the float bowl are NOT phillips. They are JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard). The heads are easily stripped if using a Phillips screwdriver. Amazon and eBay sell the JIS.

Good video only complaint is the camera should have been the other way as if we were looking the same direction as you.

Great video! After I cleaned mine in the ultrasonic, I noticed two felt washers that were falling apart. One in the hole for the choke and one in the hole for the throttle. I may be able to salvage the throttle one but the other is toast. Are they absolutely necessary? Or would it bo ok to leave out for light recreational riding?

Carberators can be very temperamental; I would replace everything with new and use the parts diagrams to reassemble.

I stripped my carb to its core an am rebuilding. Where the cable pulley inserts through the return spring into the carb body is there any type of lubricant used for the bushings? Thank you

Theres a plastic washer that prevents wear between the metal parts. I suppose you could put a dab of assembly lube on there but i have never had a problem with wear or sticking.

At min. 17:18 does the plastic fuel guard piece mounted on the main Jet has to have that hole alined with the pilot/idle jet?

Hi, just some help. At 2min 29 seconds you mentioned 'this one has a spring on it, don't lose that spring'. Where dit that spring come out? The larger brass jet hole or the smaller? I was not paying attention when disassembling mine.

The spring is on the fuel mixture screw. The skinny pointed one. Not one of the two jets

What do you soak your carb in? Ultrasonic?

I rebuilt mine correctly but when I hook my throttle linkage back up the throttle is sticking and won’t retract right… when I take my throttle cables back off.. the slide mechanism works perfect… hook my throttle cables back up it sticks either way you turn it… what am I missing?? I know I’m putting the cables in the right spot.. idk

If I only install the cable that opens the throttle it works fine if install the top cable also it sticks

Lube the cables check the resistence to rotation in the throttle tube. It has to be something in one of those two areas

On the idle screw do you really need to washer and rubber seal on top of the spring? Don’t think mine had those on there when I pulled out the old ones.

It probably would function fine without it. Is it stuck at the bottom of the threads? The washer recently damage to the carb body where the spring contacts.

@@WeekendAdventureRides so I just did a rebuild and used all the new parts, bike starts first kick but I get a weird bog at the middle of the throttle, thinking I should maybe just use the old jets but don’t know as this is the first time I have done one of these

@WeekendAdventureRides

There are a lot of good videos out there about jetting. Mid throttle is likely an issue with the height of the needle on the slide. I would open it up all the way and see if you get bog between 3/4 and full throttle. That's your main jet.

So an update, one issue I think I solved is that the rubber o-ring from the last jet was stuck in the carb, got it out and reinstalled, now I realized that I some how set the choke up backwards so all the way down is full choke I think and when I put up it dies instantly, while riding on middle choke it didn’t seem to be as boggy. Any suggestions? Thanks I really appreciate the responses

@@WeekendAdventureRides I put it together without the big throttle spring thing and it lined up nicely and i would probably have the rest of it back together by now except I asked my dear old dad for help and he cross threaded it (this was before I figured out the spring was preventing it from lining up).
