Today pulled my carby's a part to clean and get ready to replace the one i broke the corner off.Thats fine told when i bought this off road cart i have spoken about.Carbys have been over hauled but sitting around for three years,so owners kid of know more then years of age worked out.Thats after the lying bastard(owner) had my $1400 bucks in his hands.Long story short,3 diaphragms are stuffed.Pissed. I really hope this has done no damage to the engine after i was told i used to go and start it up a once every six months and my guess would be rev the crap out of the engine.

Don't feel bad, it's hard not to feel like a sucker when you're dealing with a lying bastard.  My buddy just bought a 4 year old DRZ 250 with , by the looks of the bike, tires, etc., looked almost brand new. The PO was a cop who had bought the bike to ride with his young son.  All looked good.

When my friend was unloading the bike at his house, he noticed that the engine case had been JB welded.  He called the prior owner to say WTF, and was told, 'Oh yeah, I forgot about that.  It's never leaked though'.  Yeah , right.  I forgot.  Another lying bastard.

If the diaphragms just have pinholes, they can be repaired with liquid electrical tape.
