Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Original
If it weren't for bad luck........
KXT500:
most of the time when they are that hard to start it is because the crankcase is full of fuel and it is way flooded. in that case a pull start is easiest.
if you "think" it is coolant then drain the coolant out of the bike and try to start it. if the plug is still wet then you know it is fuel.
be sure to top the coolant off before you ride the bike. :-D

Most excellent idea. I even have another carb I can toss on.
