  1. This is a bit old school but i got myself into the habit of switching the petrol off before the engine whenever i switch the bike off, after the joys of draining the cases on my DT after i jacked it up 'a little'. The angle it sat at on the stand meant the floats rest on the side of the bowl and dont always close.

    It is something i always do now from habit. Total cost nowt.....

    since i got a pitstand it doesnt get stuck even if i leave the petrol on. maybe the standard stand angle is a problem.

    thanks for your help guys

  3. Hi,

    I have a dt125 fully converted to offroad use, Is it normal for the float valve in the carb to get stuck if I leave the fuel tap on overnight?

    everytime it gets stuck i have to take the bike apart and drain the carb out. also i have tryed starting my bike up with fuel tap turned off to drain it, this doesnt work.

    Has anyone had this problem and found a solution please reply thanks.

    regards,

    Wes
