  1. Funny enuff " i just bought a gerry can of Shell V-power, and some leaked in the back of rover, have you ever smelt it ? its nowt like petrol, its more like a chemical factory[ Glaxo near here] so i"v filled all the bikes,,and mix for chainsaws,, as i knew it didn"t have ethonol in it,,, went into garage to-night ,, and that smell is in there now,, took ts250 along the drive and back , it did feel spritely, I know 2 strokes run cooler on higher octane fuels,, so time will tell, As for ethinol,,, lookee here.

  4. Yip, when first started = choke jet " then it needs the pilot jet to idle and rev thru the first 1/8 of throttle, then as air speed builds up draws fuel thru main jet ,,,, so get that PILOT jet cleaned, oh i take its got a good flow of gas,[ petcock clear]

  22. I bet the selector fork is badly worn or bent, or 2nd gear [ spinning gear] will be needing shimmed, it will have too much side movement, [5mm is too much] as you try to select 2nd" the spinning gear will move away from the driven gear, resulting in a false neutral. also the if bearings on the shafts are worn , this allows side movement also... all them "mm" add up to poor gear selection,,
  23. Well done jim" the paints faded on front very quickly. .. yeh diggin deeper mean s retaining walls also
