IT 125 erratic idling
how do you know about petrol pissing out the manifold? surely you have an exhaust on the bike! as for the dying thing, yes this could well be an indication the seal is gone, in effect you maybe starving the motor of the air it need to burn with the fuel, and so it dies. Probably the carb throttle adjustment is turned to fully shut the throttle because of the fast idle caused by the seal leak and so when the WD40 plugs the leak...voilla it dies! Can be changed easily with engine in the frame, you will need a flywhheel puller...i think they are usually 27mm (check) I understand if two small holes are drilled into the seal at opposite sides and then self tapping screws are threaded into the holes....This gives something to grasp with molegrips and pull out the seal, best done when the engine is warm, maybe use a hot air gun to warm the case around the seal area

But you said it was a 125 1980 in another post? Hi All I have just bought a !980 DT 125 but only have the chassis and engine number. Can I identify the model and year from these and how can I find the original reg? Cheers Geo

Dt 175 Mx wont start
yes but sometimes they can be a little weak and yellowy, best viewed in somewhere shady in a garage really, if its weak thats another issue but at least sparking...remind me...is this a 125 with points and 175 barrel, or a CDI 175?

Some old brits and the star of the show (although he didnt enter) for me was this 1938 New Imperial 250cc. The owner bought it in very bad shape fixed her up and regularly goes for 200 mile runs on her...hats off to the guy and doesnt he just look the part

Dt 175 Mx wont start
NEV sidestand not applicable on these...you just have to remember or pogo round the first left hander :0 ordinarily for a DT175MX the battery and fuse would also be not applicable as they will run straight from the magneto...I think even the early 125's (with points ign) will also
