Hi all,
Bought a 250ex 2002. This thing sat for a looooooong time but it did run and it sounded ok. I get it home and was going to clean the carb ,drain fuel, adjust the valves etc. Well I don’t know how this thing would idle because the carb was worst I ever saw.But anyways one thing leads to another and I take apart the top end thinking may as well hone it and rering it and this is what I found. Can someone give suggestions as to what to look for that may have caused this.The sitting for along time and then running?no lube in cylinder from sitting?froze to cylinder from sitting? this carb was BAD I had to ice blast it at work. I don’t want to just bore it and throw a new piston in it and have this happen again. Thanks
