Suzuki DRZ 400 Only Runs With The Choke On
This is a super common issue with a lot of different bikes. The simplest way to avoid this is to ride your bike and don’t let it sit for more than a month. If that’s not an option you need to fully get the gas out of the carburetor and you can do that by turning the petcock off and running the bike until it dies.

😅I am lost on carb on my 2004 DRZ 400 I am trying to get it running but this is killing my soul but I found your video I will do my best to try and clean it and see of she runs🙏😁
Dude thank you for the explanation at the end. Made the video. God send. 👏🏼👏🏼 glad I can at least fix my brand new drz lol
Best DRZ carb video I've seen, TY. A video on setting the screw and fine-tuning adjustments would be awesome.
Thanks for the good info on carbs .
Super video, really useful to be able to watch, pause, learn etc. Quick question... The 4 screws that hold the float bowl on... I know you used an impact driver on those, but what bit did you use on it? I think they are a JIS headed screw in those (as opposed to Phillips head)? Or did you you just use a standard Phillips driver, live a number 2? Keen to use the correct bit for it, as I guess once it is rounded off - you are in a world of pain!

I used a Phillips head. Not sure if they're JIS or not , I also have a bunch of new ones and a lot of the time I end up replacing them.
Very informative, keep up the good work
Great Video !! Thank You!! Every how long do you clean the carburetor ?
Such a tough choice choosing between a drz400e and a crf300L Carburettor horror stories have traumatised me 😂

carb is better if you know what youre doing and ride it everyday.
Bloody helpful, thank you.
How much would this cost at a shop?
I cleaned out the carb really good in all the passages and I'm still having the same problem. Anyone have any tips?

Do it again, without an ultrasonic cleaner it’s extremely hard to get the passages clear
Bikes and sport quads are rolling in, even with snow on the ground.
Well, March is carb cleaning season in most bike shops.
great video, thank you!

Sick stash ! Lol nice work tho
Ahh I think I have to clean my carb… question, last Friday 6/10/2022, I cracked stator cover and was leaking oil… long story longer. I took it as an opportunity to get to know my bike… I took the seat off, fuel tank off, fixed the stator cover (with some jb weld) inside and out. When I put the fuel tank back on I turned the petcock to pri because the vacuum line from the motor to the petcock was ripped. now the bike won’t start without the choke on. Did i clog/ flood the carb?

Possibly a piece of dirt got in there🤷🏻♂️ it wouldn’t hurt to open it up and take a look.
The Clymer Manual says 3.5 turns is the base starting point

That’s pretty far out! I would start at 2 1/2 and adjust as needed.
Any idea why my Drz400s is not getting enough gas when I open it up? It cuts out and the fuel filter is empty... After 2 mins it fills back up. 👀

Could be as simple as your gas cap isn’t venting
My favorite bike 👍
