I’ve been working on a 2005 trx250 sportrax. It wouldn’t crank. Now it has a new battery and new starter and cranks just fine. It won’t run though unless I pour gas into the carb and then it idles smooth for about 5 seconds. I drained all of the old fuel out of the tank and carb but the carb leaks a steady stream from the overflow tube due to a bad needle valve I assume. This means I can’t leave the gas on.
I still have it all tore apart from the starter replacement and I can see that it would take very little time to replace the carb completely. Has anyone replaced their carb with a new one? I see a lot of cheap prices on the internet and I am tempted to buy one and try it since the starter I bought off Amazon went in smoothly and works perfectly. Any experience with a new carb replacement?
