I am having trouble with my XR250 - won't start. It backfired whilst kicking over & it's no-go now. Is there a keyed flywheel that will have 'moved' due to backfire?? There is spark, compression & fuel but am now stumped.
The instructions are simple...

Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

Perhaps it is a stupid question - I not know 2 much about mechanics of 'modern' engines. Doubt it's flooded tho - this problem continued for 2+ hours.Originally Posted by Posh Tourer :P

Find a big hill and try roll starting it, use 3rd gear and try with variations from no throttle to full throttle

Been there & done that. Hence my pitiful cries for help. Ta for suggestion anyway

Sounds like the first guess does have some credence. The flywheel could have sheered the woodruff key.
But first & foremost most likely the spark plug has failed. Buy a new plug to be sure. Before you screw it in, put it in the cap & see that it sparks when you kick it over (a duff plug may spark outside but not go inside the engine under pressure). Does the plug get wet with petrol? If not, why not?
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.

The XR lives! Not so cheap, but crappy sparkplug spat the dummy. New one installed & try to stop me :spudwave: Ta for suggestions guys
