SOURCE: removing the carburator on a suzuki drz, 125.

It is quiet easy, you remove the seat then the fuel tank this will expose the carburetor then its simply a matter of disconecting fuel line and unscrewing attachement screws. why do you need to do this? I would be very careful doing this as any dirt or dust or grime getting in can have huge impact

Can you slowly increase the revs? It sounds like an accelerator pump or debris in the carb.

The carb on a DRZ 125 or KLX 125 comes pre-set from the factory with a very lean tuning. At first it may run well but once you get some time on it with a little build up and some dirt the lean setting gets even worse. To correct this you need to thoroughly clean the carb , specifically the fuel screw. Remove the carb from the intake and airbox rubbers and take off the slide cap. Drain the carb from all fuel. The fuel screw is in a recessed tube located on the bottom of the carb on the front side towards the cylinder. It may ahve a brass plug covering the screw. This is done at the factory to prevent tampering for emissions purposes. The plug can be removed by taking a very small drill bit 1/8" or so and very carefully drilling a hole in it. Put a small sheet metal screw in the hole and pull with pliers and it should come out. Make a note of the position of the screw and slowly turn it clockwise in to see what the setting is. Do not apply heavy pressure when you feel it getting tight stop. It is a soft brass screw with a fine point an is easy to damage. Typically the factory settings range from 1 1/2 to 2 turns out. This is way too lean for the bike to idle and run well or even start without the choke. back the screw out and remove the spring and O ring. Using carb cleaner with the hose attached insert it into the hole you just removed the crew from and spray it out. You should have a good stream of spray into the center bore of the carb. Re-insert the O ring and then the spring and fuel screw. turn it in until you feel it making contact and then note the position and back it out 3 1/2 turns. Put the carb back on and it should be able to start and run without the choke. Some bikes will still need a bit more tuning. The older carbs had a slide needle that had 3 to 5 positions on the needle that could be adjusted with the movable clip. Since this does not have that option you could go to a Yamaha dealer and buy the needle from a TTR 125 and install it as it is the same carb. This will cost you around $15.00. Or you could go to a hardware store and buy some 3/0 stainless washers and remove the needle and put 2 or 3 under it to shim the needle up just like the clip on an adjustable needle. You may spend $1.00 with this option. The bike should run better than new.

I have a 2006 Suzuki drz 125. It's firing but won't start? Any solutions?

No solutions, but only suggestions... What evidence do you have of it firing? It's one thing if the engine is turning over, but if it doesn't start there are a number of possibilities. Assuming you have spark, your coil checks out, and you CDI is in good condition, the next thing to check is fueling. That would mean checking the pilot jet and mixture screw if you have one.

2005 drz 125L carb hose line diagram

Might be fuel leaking from overflow. Perhaps the float valve is stuck or damaged, allowing the float bowl to overfill. Slight chance tapping on side of carb may seat the valve. If not, it will probably have to either be set, or replaced. Could possibly have some "gunk" stuck in the valve seat from the cleaning. It only takes a tiny speck of debris to hold the valve open, causing flooding. Another possible cause is that during the cleaning, the tab that adjusts the level of the float valve got bumped, changing the level.

I have a Suzuki rm 125 2005 model and ran it wide open to long and now acts like its flooded... already took Carb apart to clean figured float was stuck found a piece of dirt so I put it back together and...

Does the engine have good compression? The ring in a 125 does not last very long - the bike could be down on compression pressure. Re-ring it.

Is your air filter clean? I've seen them so filthy that they were actually brittle. Check your air filter.

How about your spark plug? They do burn out. Replace with a new one.

If it's loaded up, pull the plug, hold the throttle wide open and kick the snot out of it about 20 times, then put a fresh plug in it and try it again.

Good luck!

How much is a new carburettor for drz 125? Is it cheaper to get the carb kit instead?

A new carb for your bike is $192.00. If you can get a kit or even the individual items in a kit, the kit will cost a whole lot less. Check out Babbitt's; www.babbittsonline.com tombones49_292.gif
