    @finchfocker I know! Don’t worry! I get uppity when I drink more than 4 special brews 🤪 I was just being a dick So take no notice of me after 9pm!... We all love bikes, 2 or 4/‘s and the variety is a good thing...

    @lllDennis So my rebuild consisted of Stainless as it's cheap. I just got all the bolts for the engine from "Raceti" and that cost me £145. So it's not cheap. And I'm sure you can appreciate there are a lot more bolts than just the engine. The thing that hurts is when they rattle off!

    @SpookDog Seriously! That’s not normal is it? I ended up cutting and filing back the right side casing to match the other side...

    So leave the carburettor and oil pump cable alone, the cable from the junction box to the throttle tube is like 50cm long (if that). That's the only one you need to worry about. I run a YZ85 throttle tube on my DT.

    @SpookDog If you take it apart, use a drop or so of bearing/thread lock to secure it properly...

    @SpookDog Yea I know, but I have a local shop that’s got all kinds of bearings and oil seals. So I just wanted so see if they had any who fits my engine. Then I don’t have to wait for delivery and etc. But do you know which ones come originally?

    I wouldn’t worry so much. If so keep the pre-mix. Otherwise put the clear tube on, see the flow and trust Yamaha

    I’ve had similar temperamental problems with this (& a 100 other things!!) The only thing it can be is the needle valve that is operated by the floats (or the floats themselves!)old fuel varnish or dirt is the usual suspect... You can get a replacement kit I think. The needle and the brass insert it fits into... A good inspection and clean is usually good enough... P.S. the ‘weight’ of fuel can exasperate the situation, or it has in my experience (which isn’t much!)...

    @SpookDog meant to quote Declan there pal. With the athena kit it's a complete unknown quantity. Only issue I've experienced with running a colder plug ( a10 range on nsr125) was it would foul and cause a missfire when the weather turned cooler.

    Cheers bud, that’s something to work with. I’ve got a good 3bn, my reworked 3mb and another 3mb (that I forgot about till now) that is battle~scarred but otherwise original.

    Yamaha just refer to both of them as Air Chamber on the parts diagram's - I still say its not a performance item and its just a bolt on for emissions / silencing etc.

    @jackreece show a picture with your tm32 installed. The float bowl needs to be pretty level. Because of how the DT engine and intake is, some carbs will sit at a angle
