[QUOTE="kdxtodd, post: 1179594, member: 26125"] Just pulled my 87 kx500 out of the shed been sitting for years. Wouldnt start so I pulled the carb off and sprayed the main jet clean, pretty dirty in there. Cleaned the rest of it too. Has a new spark plug and gets spark, also has good compression. I hooked a tow rope to it and pulled it bwehind my buddies truck. It wouldnt light up until I held the throttle wide open, then It would start up and run.. then die. Only when held wide open. I wouldnt recomend doing this in shorts as the 500 bucked me off when it lit up and I got some gnarly road rashes. :bang: what else do I nneedto check? thanks [/QUOTE]
