      I freed off a seized pilot jet by applying heat with a pen torch, then tapping a small cross head screwdriver into it. It let go easy with a click. Just strip the carb right down before heating it...

      If you want to flog it for spares let me know 😜

        Hello all, does anyone know if I can fit a lectron carb to 1999 dt125r? The manufacturer tells me they're not available for my model but I'm wondering if it can be done with a different model. Maybe yz 125 for example? Many thanks.

          @spookdog I may try that as I got nothing to lose. Thanks and will keep you in mind if I sell.

            @ninja thanks mate but I did ask them and they said sorry but we don't make one for the dt125r. But I'm thinking surely one for a different bike would work.

              @markus-w I'm sure any of them could be made to work, its just trial & error and loadsa patience to figure it all out. Well worth a shot if you have the time and coin?

                @markus-w yeah I'm sure they will look up similar bikes so for example type in Google -yz125 specs) and usually you will get a page of specifications and one of those specs will show what carb the bike uses try find a bike that that uses the same carb and that will give you a ballpark fitment idea if you cross reference,ofcourse this isn't exact because of the differences in deal shapes and clearances,I believe all the lectron carbs are the same from bike to bike the only thing that changes is the actual size of the internals

                  @declan good idea mate thanks. So what you're saying is to find a bike that uses the tm28ss same as dt and try get one for that bike? That makes good sense I'll let you all know if I have any joy.

                    @markus-w yeah that way you know the rough clearances will be the same it's not exact science but it may work

                        Actually, scratch that! I don’t think they have the weird angle/tilt to them that the Dtr does. That’s the problem, most carbs are level...
