|  1993 Honda CR125 problem.
I just picked up a 93' Honda cr125 and i'm having problems. The first 3-4 days, it ran awesome. But then the problems started. Don't think the guy I got it off of screwed me over because it did run so well for the first 3-4 days. If I put in a new sparkplug, it kicks right over but won't idle. When running it at high rpm's in first/second gear, it sounds like it's almost choking out. Here is what I've done: 1. Torn carb apart. havn't reset float, but jets/etc are all in good shape. Ordered new reeds just in case (they'll be here tomorrow) 2. New plug 3. Cleaned air filter (actually removed filter just to make sure air is getting in) 4. Checked sparkplug and it seems to get spark 5. Gas is 32:1 6. Made sure choke wasn't stuck. Other than the reeds being put in tomorrow, it seems to start right up via kick and run (won't idle and high rpm's seems to make it bog. This easy startup will continue until I think the plug foul's up. Been through 4 plugs in past week. I got this bike for my son to ride. Needless to say he's been disappointed over the past weeks while we've been trying to figure out the problem. Any other suggestions? I'm running out of em' Thanks, OhioDirt |
