SOURCE: my yamaha yz 125 is dumping to much fuel and

There are only two adjustments to make on your carburetor; the idle speed, and the idle mixture adjustment. If the spark plug fouls frequently, first make sure you are using the correct spark plug. Your 1997 YZ125 uses an NGKB9EGV. Then be sure you are using the recommended two stroke oil, mixed to the proper ratio, in the fuel. Also make sure the air filter is not excessively soiled.
With all of the above confirmed and corrected, start the bike and run until the engine is up to normal temperature. Adjust the idle mixture screw to attain the fastest idle and best throttle response. Then adjust the idle speed.
If you are still fouling the spark plug, verify that the carburetor has the correct size jets by consulting your owner's manual. Keep in mind that if you are operating your bike at an altitude higher than about 6,000 feet above sea level, the stock jetting may be too rich. Down-size the main jet in small increments until satisfactory operation and the correct spark plug color is obtained.

1998 vmax 1200 how do I set the carbs to a leaner fuel mix as I'm fouling one plug due to a rich fuel mix

Clockwise should lean it. If only one plug is fouling then you may have other problems like too much oil in that cylinder

I have the homelite Vac Attack 2, i'm having trouble starting it, i prime it the desired 7 times (actually more) but i just sit there and pull, and pull, and pull the cord....really getting frustrated!

#1 senerio
Fouled spark plug
ie, carbon and or fuel fouled
install new plug, and withouth choking or priming, pull 4-6 times while holding the throttle at wide open.

If not fouled, go to senerio #2

#2 senerio
Fuel starvation - 'lean fuel' condition
Basic things to check:
1) spark plug
2) spark arrestor in muffler
3) fuel lines and tank filter
4) turn adjustment needles out (counterclockwise) 1/4 to 1/2 turn
*if all of the above are OK and/or do not improve performance then:
Remove Carburetor
5) replace gaskets/diaphragms
b) use a spray carb cleaner to clean jets, holes, and body of carb

My FZR600 won't start. No mods, all stock. I got it a month ago and it had been stored over the winter with no stabilizer. It wouldn't run, so I cleaned out the tank, made sure the fuel lines were clear,...

These things are really temperamental.The plugs are fouled again..I had the same bike and went through the same thing..It doesnt take much to foul them..Get some new plugs and she'll run like a beaut..Just remember not to choke it to much..Thats where the plug fouling happens the most..Always keep a spare with you and you'l always be on the good..It will work!!Have a great night!!!!!!!!
