hey all!
I got a question.
I got a CRF250 2004 , as orginal if you turn the throttle it throws some gas from the caburator into the cilinder.
This is all very beautiful but i never needed it and everytime i park the bike somewere (its my dialy) some idiot will turn the throttle and the damn thing wont start , Wich aint funny but well yea kids are kids.
Is there any way to block this process? Is it possible to turn this off by removing something in the caburator?

i'm not familiar with how this little spitter works :)

Thank you!

The answer is yes and no. You can shut off the fuel petcock and run the carb dry before you park the bike then there will not be any fuel from accelerator pump to squirt.
That is not a bad thing to do anyway saves fuel evaporating and clogging things up.
But to your actual question - No, 4 stroke engines FCR carbs have a pump that sprays the fuel into the carb throat.

Buy a 2 stroke and you won't that problem. :D
