The engine in this 1998 Kawasaki KX250 was completely rebuilt (top end and bottom end), but ran very poorly afterward. Adam wasn't positive what the problem was, so he invited us to have a look at it. In this video we attempt to repair it!
If you would like us to make a video with you and your machine, send us a message!

I too was skeptical of the change in format. but it worked out great. I tell ya, the pureness of the smile the Jake had was priceless. Money can't buy that. I thoroughly enjoyed this channel. I've learned so much from starting to watch it almost 7 years ago.

Great format. 30 minute time frame was spot on. No part 2's made it even better. Intro, problem, diagnose, fix, test, done.

That's a dangerous way to remove a crank. That easily can throw the crank off balance. Should use a crank puller for a reason!

I have a friend who bought a 98 kx 250 new back in late 97. He brought it to my house straight from the dealership. At the time it was by far the most powerful 250 engine in the low to mid rpm range that I had even ridden.
