Rm250 Problems.

[Lion]

Got a couple of BR8ES spark plugs, they are pretty cheap at $6. I took it out for a blat today and it goes way better, and the plugs don't foul out anymore.

My pipe is filled up with oil and carbon, what are the easiest ways to remove this crap?

[B0000M]

remove it, wash it out with kero, or degreaser, replace the packing, let it all dry for a good amount of time, then re assemble

[cheese]

I tried caustic soda, but I think mine had gone off when I did it....

[Wellyman]

you need to run BR plugs, they have a risitor for electracal noise which RM's and YZ's are particuly bad for, i would run all late model mx bikes on risitor type plugs,

Or just buy a Honda, aye Scott...

sounds like it is the wrong plug, best to try another that has been reccomened in this thread

The plug seems to be all sweet now, running nice and smooth, and doesn't smoke anymore.

I went to repack the silencer today (Fmf Turbinecore 2). I cannot remove the bloody endcap, I have drilled all the rivets out but the thing wont budge.. Any ideas?

[cheese]

LOL you don't!!!!!!

You take the 3 bolts out at the input end and the entire thing slides out. the other end has a turbine on it that means you don't need a spark arrestor.

It's stiff to pull apart.

Now you need to rivet it back together..... Bugger.

I pulled the inside out, but there is tonnes of oil pissing out of the turbine and there is little balls of carbon rattling around in there. So the end piece / turbine can't be removed??

Given the fact that you have continual Fouling plugs and you have stated above on more than one occasion you have oil filling and pissing out of the exhaust. I'm wondering if you still have a rich jetting problem then your new plug will foul eventually as well.

I would recommmend you search the web for Rich-lean plug colour pics and learn about reading your plug. Its not that hard you just need to come in full noise and switch off so your idle circuts don't contaminate the reading, take the plug out and look at the colour.
I don't want to give a lesson here but if its really sooty or more likely wet and black you need to look at your main jet and needle postion. You could even take digital pics of them and post them here for more help. But we need more info than you have given.
