yz85 oil question
chris-mets:
Today the bike had 138 main... 40 pilot... 2 turns out... 2nd clip...A little before I changed it to 132 main...40 pilot...2 turns out...1st clip...
I then tested it and there was less oil im pretty sure...Tomorrow I have to open the exhaust and clean as much oil as I can out of it to see it I got the jetting right finally...
I also noticed this about a week ago that say I rev the bike and keep revving it then let it idle in neutral...after a while the bike will get lower and lower in idle and stay REALLY low where you can hear the gears spinning or some sound like that and eventually shut off...Some other times the bike is idling and the idle will get a little higher...The idle isnt even working to keep it on when its about to die out idling...The throttle cable is fine and its not revving when I turn the handlebars...advice?

the rattling noise is what you get when most engines are ready to stall,i dont run any tickover on any of my 2 strokes only on my kxf 138 to 132 is quite a jump whats the standard main? the only way to see if its correct is the plug colour ,not ticking over could be mainy things from low compression , piston picking up ,jetting , until you get the basics right you will struggle , as i sugested before do a check list of whats right and what isnt plug range ,fuel etc ,best of luck

I took the exhaust off my bike today and ran it and saw that oil is still coming from the exhaust hole on the cylinder. I got a great picture of it but the site isnt letting me post it for some reason. It showed the piston and the ring and the oil stain path that it drools down. Right now my bike is:
132 main jet - stock is 138
40 pilot jet - stock is 45
1st clip position - stock is 2nd
I dont really know what to try anymore. I cleaned the air filter too.
