Re: [suzuki250fours] Still not running

Hi Malcom,

Did you ever get this sorted?

I decided to do a valve clearance check on mine and found that every valve
was out of spec, one I couldn't even measure a clearance. So I fixed the
clearances, and 'lo and behold, the goes heaps better - "Like a bought
one!". Before it would struggle to start, though be "OK" once warm,
wouldn't like revving past 5500RPM, to which it sounded like it was
backfiring..

I suggest you do this to your motor if you're still having issues with it
revving out.


Also, do you still have the body of the GS250FW sitting around? Or did
you just buy the motor?


Cheers,


Carl
