Hello everyone. We have a 2005 Honda CRF230F that needed to have the carburetor cleaned in order for it to start and run properly. I hope you find this video helpful.

The reason the float tab was bent was to increase the amount of fuel in the bowl. Mine was that way and the previous owner said he did that to try to richen up the fuel mix. Honda's run lean from the factory. I got a jet kit for mine and it made a world of difference. It now starts easier and has much better throttle response.

What year is your bike and which jets ended up being the ticket?

I have a 2005 CRF 230 F as well the hood that’s on the main jet that you took off either I lost mine or doesn’t have it. Is that a possibility? How important is it if I don’t have it anymore and lost it

Thanks Great useful info! I bought a 2012 CRF230F. Seems there’s a small leak of gas out overflow. Idles fine. Are the most likely causes the main jet/needle , debris or improper float setting?
@OTRVM3 жыл бұрын
More than likely the float is sticking or the level is off. Someone might have cleaned it prior to selling it but bent the tab on the float needle thus changing the level. Thanks for the support.

Thanks for the quick reply. I’ve only had fuel injected road bikes before. Does the centrifugal oil filter make a distinctive noise? Other than a bit of fuel leaking & possibly a bit sluggish mid to upper revs the bike seems to work well.

@@willmcgregor7184 Some noises common to dirt bikes especially ones ridden hard could be clutch chatter. while its idling pull in the clutch and see if the sound changes. Also you can hear top end noise too. Levels can vary depending on the bike, age, time ridden, ect.

Hey bro I have a crf 230 2004 and it leaks al lot of gas in to the drain hose why is that ? Is my carb dirty ? Best video out there btw
@OTRVM4 жыл бұрын
Thank you. More than likely what is happening is your float is getting stuck. And this can occur when the carburetor is in need of cleaning. Debris might have also gotten into the carburetor from the tank and not allowing the float needle to seat all the way in to shut off the fuel coming into the carburetor. So I would start with a good cleaning and possibly install an inline filter between the tank and the carburetor.

OTRVM thank you sir I clean it and it looks like it went away but the seal is loose I order a new one hopefully that stops the leaking because now it started a little leak from the good thing that is under it too

@bikersoncall Жыл бұрын
My bike (pit bike) was running great today, then it just died, like out of gas or no spark, totally dead, and the kick start suddenly became way too easy. I have spark for sure, and starting fluid didn't help, put my finger in the spark plug hole while pushing down the kick and get compression. Ideas? New bike? shrugs....

the little one that comes off the bottom is an overflow. just goes down through the rear shock linkage

Two comments: When checking your float level, put a short piece of fuel hose on the carb, and blow through it as you move the float, when you hear the air blowing sound stop, you will know when your valve closes. A little bit of vaseline on the inside of the jntake and air box tubes will help the carb slide back in easier.

Mine starts just fine, just won't idle with the choke off. I heat up the motor. Turn the choke off and it instantly dies. I've messed with the idle control as much as possible and still no luck.
@OTRVM2 жыл бұрын
Yeah I hear you. Pretty typical of the pilot circuit being clogged/varnished/obstructed. You will need to clean the entire circuit. Including removing the welch plug and taking out the air/fuel mixture screw for idle. Hope this helps.

I am sorry to hear that. A lot of ATV/UTV/Motorcycle carbs can be a pain to fit back in. I have not had my hands on a CRF230F in a long time. I wish I could give you some aid in the matter.
