250x won't start!?!?..FAST

[roostin_dale]

it has no spark..whats wrong?

I was in a race and it started to sputter (like i ran out of gas) then it just died.

help fast because i am leaving wendsday for the Casey Nationals!

[Out_Sider]

have you checked all connections with the cdi, and the thing the spark plug wire goes to? check those, and change the plug..idk what to say dude

[stonerider250x]

do like darrell said and check all the conections....also check your coil..its prolly your coil or cdi.

hope this helped.

[JDiablo]

you might have water under your spark plug cap,i've heard of that happening

[roostin_dale]

I've done all that stuff...I have no idea whats going on!?

[honda250xrider]

my money is the stator is the problem.... they tend to go bad, had the same thing happen, all of a sudden just starts to act like it runs outa gas but to no prevail it wont start again, i would take a tester to the stator and look in your manuel and see what kind of current you are supposed to be getting from it

[roostin_dale]

I will get to the nationals on Thursday..do you think one of the big teams like nac's or someone could fix it for me??

[stonerider250x]

im sure they will help you. just hope they are nice and have time to do it.

good luck:)

[Out_Sider]

you might want to check the stator for real. i dont know from experience taht when they go bad, they make the bike studer and die. just hope that you can get some good help. best of luck dude.

I have seen your exact problem happen a couple of time on the 250 x's and it was the stator.

i think it is, and thanks to a very nice member (exman) he is bringing a stator to the Nationals for me. We are going to put it on Thursday hopefully.

if its not the starter check the valves and make sure there not too tight..thats wut was wrong w/my 300 wen it quit startin.

[roostin_dale]

well it is fixed. I drove to a lot of shops this morning, normally I would never trust a dealer to touch my stuff..but this was an emergency. lol

I took it in and they said they had a 2 week waiting list in the shop. I said, man you know the nationals are in casey this week right, i was really hoping to race. He said " well in that case we will get right to work".

They personally pulled it off the trailer and right onto the lift and got to work. We left, came back an hour and a half later to see whats up, the said "your ready to roll!"

I had a bad stator and the fixed it up. Didn't need a new one but the fixed it and it cost $93 for 1 1/2 hours labor:huh

I thought it was cool of them to get right on the job!

thanks for the replies everone
