Title: dumb '92 KDX250 ?'s
Post by: 200x350xtriz250 on December 15, 2007, 02:28:27 AM: I just bought a '92 KDX250, and would like to know what ratio the gas should be mixed at? and what a good spark plug to run? I was told that a plug 1 step hotter than stock would keep it from fouling so much, is that true? I prefer to use NGK plugs and need to know the # I need, stock or 1 step hotter. Thanx in advance.

Wow you did not just ask that. Just like lighting a short fuse on on a stick of dynamite I would stand back if I was you or maybe even run. :lol: :lol: :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Ratios, Trans Oil, Plugs, are all pretty deeply discussed threads, on here. There's no one answer. Read all of it and you get your answers on your own kinda. Keep an open mind, filter through opinion and fact, find a common theme that applies to your bike and BAM, your bike is screamin'. Before too long you will be telling us, what ratio to run and what crankcase oil to run.
