[QUOTE="Ryan12833, post: 1047184, member: 67621"] I have a 1987 honda xl250 that is overheating, please help if you can. It started yesterday when i had a plug in the bike meant for 5 degree weather or below. I checked it this morning, this is what i did: alright, it runs fine, idles good, sometimes it dies. Here is what i did this morning. I put a new plug in, the one with the correct heat index. I cleaned the fuel filter, although it was not dirty at all, not even a spec of dirt. I know the carbs are getting fuel. I had the bike running at 1 3/4 turns out on the air screw and to about 2 1/2 turns out. It doesnt affect the bike too much at all. it started pretty quick, so i ran it are my negiborhood (1/2 mile) in third gear and forth. When i got back it started to smoke white smoke a little but not alot at all. Then it died. I got it started again but i didnt want to ride it. I pulled the plug and it seemed like it was still overheating. Im not sure what the problem is. The plug after i ran it was starting to get white again. Thanks for any help. Im trying to ride with my freind monday and its not looking good. [/QUOTE]
