Off hand I would suggest, check your fuel system delivery first, then your electrical system. Nothing doing with your timing if you have set it correctly in the first place.

I got a 1990 kawi js 440 andf rebuilt the carbs and its hard to start and when it does it dies then the carb floods with gas and will not start again cuz of to much fuel do you know what is wrong

Your carburator bowl float is stuck in open position, or it is sticking allowing the gas to flood the engine.
Remove the carburator boal and try to clean or replace the carburator bowl float.

I have a 1987 kx 125 just put topend gasket set in with piston and rings and coolent is getting in the case bottom end anyone know why plz help me

It sounds as if you have rebuilt the engine without torqueing the head bolts. Although, it could be that the cylinder base gasket has been torn during the rebuild. Try to re-tighten the head bolts to the correct settings first. Good luck.

I have a 2004 kawasaki kx 125 the top end needs to be rebuilt it has been rebuilt one time already so what parts would i need to get is it hard to do or what

piston kit, wrist pin bearing, top end gasket kit and a honing tool to clean your cylinder is about it I would probably buy new air filter and spark plug if I was doing it, but not essential ?
