I've checked my bottle on the petcock this morning and the DRZ is fine with the petcock in the off position. I'm going to rebuild the carb with a new seals, jets and float needle when the kit arrives.


Changed the oil this morning and there was definitely a smell of fuel in the old oil.


Going to test the stator this afternoon and possibly open it up to inspect it.
Yep the VFR. I swapped the reg/rec a few months back but I wasn't entirely happy with the output. The stator tested fine for resistance and earth leakage but I left things till the winter service before checking further. Last week I did a voltage test and two phases were 15vac and the other 20vac at idle. That convinced me to replace it.

It's a common problem with VFR so not entirely surprising.
