sorry, i wasnt sure. normally this leak is common on old 2 strokes. if the mixture is real rich, like how the old automatic mixers ran then you will get this. you have 2 options. buy a new exhaust gasket if it has one or disable the auto mixer and rejet for a leaner mixture.

damn da damn.
this little thing is full of problems.
I hit a big bump and it started to die, I downshifted into neutral and it runs, but as soon as you put it in to gear it dies. Please help!

this sounds like a worn clutch basket, but in a not normal fashion. is it a hard hit when you put it in gear in it dies or does it just kinda die? clutch basket can do this, or a seized bearing or gear. it dies when you try to put it in gear from a stop right? if so, to verify the clutch basket as the culprit or not, put it in 3rd or 4th and try to roll the bike. you are not trying to start it, just trying to make sure anything is not seized. if nothing is seized, then take the bike to a hill. start it in neutral and cost down until you are at a reasonable speed for 1st gear and try to clutch in while rolling. if it works, then you have a bad clutch basket or the clutch disks are messed up.

its like normal, but it dies, I drained the oil, no metal shavings.
I was going down a hill in 4th I think, hit a bump and it started to die, I down shifted and as soon as I hit neutral it runs normal until you put it in gear.

tigmaster · 11-06-2007, 05:06 PM

and what happens when it is sitting in neutral and you put it in gear? does it die? it really sounds like something is starting to seize.

wr250f95 · 11-06-2007, 05:27 PM

yeah, it just dies, I tryed adjusting the clutch and that didnt do anything.

tigmaster · 11-06-2007, 05:29 PM

so it doesnt hop forward, just dies? im really not sure, but from what you are saying its either clutch troubles or something in the gearbox.

wr250f95 · 11-06-2007, 05:33 PM

it just dies, dosnt jerk or anything.

tigmaster · 11-06-2007, 05:35 PM

ya, that sounds like an internal prob so i would start by looking at the clutch basket for any wear.

wr250f95 · 11-06-2007, 05:38 PM

would the clutch still feel normal?
I attempted to open the clutch cover but the screws are stripped out
