[QUOTE="rhilliard23, post: 208884, member: 4459"] Good morning everyone, I recently tore apart my RM 125 and rebuilt it from the ground up, (didn't open the cases). I got everything back on and when I went to start it, it took a few kicks but finally started. When I took it up the road, it just died and wouldn't re-start. I brought it back to the house and kicked it a few times with no avail. Then the carb started pouring gas out of the float overflow until I shut the gas off. I did rebuild the carb with a Moose kit. When I took it apart again after these trial runs everything seemed to be good, no holes in the float, gaskets set, etc. I tried putting new plugs in and that didn't help either, I never got it to fire again after that. Again gas was leaking out of the carb. The compression is good, and when I checked for spark it seemed to be very week. I noticed that the spark plug was not "clicking" into the coil cable. Another odd thing I noticed is that the receiving end of the cable spins on the cable, it seems like it's not connected but there is a slight spark. Essentially it seems like there are two problems here, weak spark and carb keeps overflowing! Helllllp, I want to ride before the snow flies. Thanks, Rick [/QUOTE]
