i've flooded my 2stroke dtr 125, any ideas how to get this baby up and running again, your thoughts would be much appreciated.

many thanks

Either put the bike on to the floor so the petrol can come out of the over flow, or take the carb off and theres some screws underneath, unscrew them and take it apart.

Once the carb is apart you should see some floats, if the bottom of the carb is full of petrol, empty it, then put it back together.

If the bottom of the carb is full and the float is at the top then you will know it has flooded.

Turn the petrol tap off, take the spark plug out, spin the motor over with the plug out, then if you can leave it overnight before re-fitting the plug and trying again. Oh and while the plug is out, fit the HT cap and ground the plug using a jump lead to the engine, then check for a healthy spark.
