The car pulls nice. I still have a few bugs to work out. When I was installing everything I had to remove the right side header a few times. In the process I tore the gasket. I got a set of fel-pro header gaskets. I've read the BBK ones are junk. I almost changed the left side too, but said to myself, it's on there just leave it. Well the left side gasket is leaking. I guess I will be changing that out now. Here's the dyno graph.

WOW nice Frank, I don't know if you remember me but I have the KFX450 and use to ride with joe a little bit. We've ridden at L-cross together a couple years back. I too have a lighting, you should check out Lightningrodder.com , specifically the FLRC section. Pretty good site. I remember you. I'm on Lightningrodder. Screen name is *SVT*. I had the car dyno tuned today. I put down 396HP/402TQ. I'm very happy with the out come.

You can get one from the neighbors truck. I will have to keep mine locked. I don't have the phone number on me because I'm off work this week. Try calling Rocco's used auto parts in Lake Worth. Tell them Frank from Bennett Auto sent you. Good Luck

Main jet has nothing to do with the idle. If it runs good when on the gas the main jet is fine. The pilot jet circuit is what influences the idle. You need to do to that carb what I described in my first response. You need to pull the plug covering the air/fuel screw and adjust it once the quad is warmed up to running temperature.

You're welcome. I'm not familiar with the problem with the petcocks on those quads. Doing that should be fine as long as the needle is seating properly in the carb.

Cleaning the carb is a good idea. While the carb is off you need to take the plug out that covers the air/fuel screw so you can adjust it. There is a diagram here. http://www.bikebandit.com/2004-suzuki-lt-z250-carburetor/o/m19085sch648708You can use a self tapper to make a hole in it the grab it to pull it out. Now after you clean the carb you can adjust the air/fuel mixture so you can smooth out the idle. The mixture screw is #27 and the plug I spoke of is #23. The plug can be seen with the bowl on the carb. It comes up from the bottom so it's hard to get to. They make a special tool for getting at it but you can use a 1/4" drive 1/4" socket with a screwdriver bit in it. You can usually do it with the socket/bit and you fingers. I would clean the carb by removing the bowl, which for some reason doesn't have a part # in the diagram. Hopefully you know what the bowl is. Don't try to take the bowl off with a phillips screwdriver. You will strip them out. Use a 1/4" drive ratcket, 3" exstention with the 1/4" socket and a #2 phillips bit. This will remove them without stripping the heads out. Next remove #16, 28 & 29. Use carb cleaner on them. Then get a piece of stranded wire and push it through the jets. Shoot carb cleaner in every opening of the carb body. Then full the bowl of the carb cleaner high enough to soak all the jets for a day. After that reasembly it. Then back off the cable and idle screw. Warm it up then play with the idle screw, probably by going out until it idles. I would start by turning the air/fuel screw #27 in until it seats. Don't tighten it. While turning it in count how many turns it is out by 1/4 turns. The back it out to where it was and go another 1/2 turn. Then go from there after it's warmed up. Don't go past 2 3/4 turns. After that it might fall out. Good Luck

you can do that with all the parts except for the receiver or whatever has the serial number stamped on it. You have to ship from one FFL to another FFL otherwise.
An individual can ship a firearm out of state as long as it's shipped to an FFL. I've bought guns off of gunbroker.com that were shipped to my FFL from a non-FFL.
