`11 250f starts then shuts off, any ideas

Foxx4Beaver:
give it some time...there's a few members on here that are really good with the 4T's, but they sometimes don't log-on everyday...
in the mean time, you can scroll through the KX450F/KX250F threads and see if you can come up with some ideas to check.

ok, thank you, also for your input on my 500 yesterday.

Foxx4Beaver:
you're welcome...just pay it forward :-)

motovet:
Sooo......... I am not sure if this is what caused this whole ordeal or not but what I found is the gaskets for the cylinder and head did not have oil holes in them ( the ones to allow oil to get to the head). I know they are aftermarket but not sure what brand and he does not remember either, I don`t know if it was a gasket manufacture mistake or if they were for a different year ( would assume all years would have some type of oil hole though). As I look through the manual, I don`t see anything about oil pressures shutting it down but it works fine now and that is all I found to be wrong. Not sure if this will help out anyone else with running issues but it may just save a top end from lack of oil. Moving parts like oil

Foxx4Beaver:
makes sense, I never thought of the head gasket, but like I mentioned in my 1st post, "I don't know jack about the 4T's"...and plan on keeping it that way :wink:

glad you got it sorted out!
