Technical / Re: how to adjust fuel level on 04 yz125

Make sure your float is moving up and down and is not stuck - may not be the level as such, but your needle and seat may not be closing up for whatever reason. Give the carb a good whack and see if it stops.
On my RGV one of the needles was sticking and after you turned the tap on the fuel was pissing out everywhere. So I guess drop the bowl and make sure the float moves easily. Seem to recall a viton o-ring in there too, (Last time I tried to fix a carb was about 3 years ago) so if there is one in the seat make sure it is intact and not split or perished.

It's all his fault I bought my RS125 (which he has done some stellar things to) and the TS185 VMXer that even shocked Joel Robert, but not necessarily in a good way 
It is also his fault that I bought a ktm 500 project - even thought my skillz are at the level of a drunken monkey.
