    New timing belt edge chewed

    Replaced the belt. All the pulleys and tensioner were smooth. Reset the tension using the Honda manual procedure. All good so far. Not sure what happened.

    New timing belt edge chewed

    I followed the procedure in the Honda manual. Only thing I can figure is that the belt is rubbing on one of the plastic covers? Or maybe I set the belt too high on the crank and cam pulleys before setting the tension? Got a new belt coming- will try again.

    New timing belt edge chewed

    Changed the belt, tensioner and pulleys on my BF250. After 60 hours, noticed some belt dust and the top outside edge of the belt has a groove worn in it. Can’t figure out what it’s rubbing against? Any ideas?

    Honda 250 starter getting wet

    Check the tube for telltale hasn’t slipped off the fitting on the cowling. It potentially can fill up the lower cowling with water immersing the flywheel. There was a TSB from Honda that added a zip tie to the fitting to keep it secured.

    BF225 changing the timing belt

    1560 hours. Still runs like new. Next maintenance item is the internal anodes in the exhaust manifolds but that job looks pretty straightforward.

    BF225 changing the timing belt

    Just adding to this thread to help someone out. I too was able to remove and replace the belt without removing the crank pulley. This was on a 2020 BF250.

    2007 Honda BF 225 water leak

    I had a 2002 225 that corroded at the bottom cylinder where it meets the head on the port side. Symptoms similar to yours. Pulled the head and repaired with a metal epoxy Belzona. Find the source and we can guide you from there.

    Honda BF200 sputtering

    After re reading looks like the problem follows the motor with portable or boat tank. Then I would check for a corroded needle and seat inside the vst.

    Also, check your inlet tube from the tank. There’s a small screen in the tube that gets clogged and can cause exactly what you’re describing.

    Timing Belt BF250D

    Does anyone know if the timing belt replacement procedure is the same for pre-2007 and post 2007 BF 250 models? Thanks.

    Honda 225oil leak

    There’s an oil seal at the base of the block that goes bad. Assume it drips when the motor is tilted? The block need to be pulled to replace the seal unfortunately.

    Surge at low RPM

    I’d start with all new filters and report back. Make sure you’re running fresh clean fuel as these motors are fuel sensitive.

    2020 BF250 Water pumping out of flush hose

    2020 BF250D flushed after every use. Thermostats have 150 hours. When running, I have water pumping out of the flush hose. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.
