    '87 Suzuki DT55 erratic idle

    Suzuki DT55 not starting

    I have a '87 DT55 which I purchased a couple of months ago. It did run then, but not well. I checked everything over and it did start and ran fine with muffs. Recently, it was hard to start, but it did finally start. I turned it off, and now can not restart it. It has spark, new fuel, and the...
