bigwill Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 I have a 350x honda engine stuffed into a 250x frame-this thing will not start once its warm-does this sound like a pilot jet problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toomey Banshee Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 Sounds like an electrical problem Willy. If it starts and dies out and you can restart it, that would be a pilot jet issue. It starts when cold and then when it gets hot it dies out and then you cant restart it? Sounds electrical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be. Have you tried to give it throttle as you start it. Not hold it open, but give it throttle while kicking. If it starts, it's not electrical. Does it die or you simply can't start it warm after turning it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banchetta Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 Do like Rod said and go from there. I know my cousin had a problem w/ his rev limiter from white bros....Did the same thing on his 400ex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it start cold without the choke. If so, it might be a rich choke or fuel just running in from a leaky float seat. I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigwill Posted August 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 I was thinking it has something to do with the pilot jet and will check for leaks-thanks fellas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toomey Banshee Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 Hey Will, you got that Passion motor in anything yet? Luke and my shees are up and running, maybe we can hook up this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
