2008 Gas Gas EC 300 Questions & Answers
Hi, I have a 2006
Be sure to change the piston and rings sometime around two years from now, but only if you want to. So long as the engine doesn't seize up due to lack of oil in the gas, the piston and rings should last for years. Please rate my answer.
I can,t get it to bleed
Air bubbles float up so start bleeding at the banjo bolt at master cylinder first(not the bleed nipple)Best to use silicone brake fluid as it dosent eat paint, or else try flicking the leaver with cover of mastercylinder removed and look for raising air bubbles,flick,flick,then pull all the way in then flick,flick.Air bubbles should be visable soon.Keep trying this for 5 mins.If that dosn't work,& youve fit new seals you have probably fit them the the wrong way.

I have a 2001 gas gas ec300 its running as if its
you might find that there is oil getting past the rings and going out the exhaust meaningthe rings are gone, before looking at that take the exhaust off and clean out the exhaust could just be clog up
Wiring schematic
Here is a tech article I wrote up on my old 2001 XC250. Since it is of the same general vintage you may want to look at the wiring diagram shown in the article. My guess is that the wiring color codes would be similar.

There is a very slim chance that anyone will know
OK just using logic, no specialist knowledge but...
If temperature fluctuates, then it sounds more like a thermostat/heat control problem. If it CAN get hot then doubtless there is gas available... It's probably something to do with the heat controller unit - can you get it checked? have you looked inside the unit to see if there is any obvious issues?

My bike will start and idle but dies when you give it gas
Kerry, Check for vacuum leaks, check the fuel line is not old and collapsing (they can look good on the outside and inner collapsed), if it ha a vented cap make sure it is not plugged.Were the floats set correctly or could be sticking. There still is a chance dirt has been re introduced into jets to. Good luck.

Kick start seized
IF YOUR KICKSTART HAS SEIZED AND IT WON'T TILT BACK IN THE PROBLEMS ON THE SHAFT (REMOVE THE DOMED ALAN CAP BOLT THEN REMOVE THE ACTUAL KICKSTART AND CLEAN UP THE SHAFT AND INSIDE DIA OF THE KICKSTART AND LUBE IT BEFORE REFITTING, MIND YOU DON'T LOSE THE SPRING AND BALL). IF ITS SEIZES WHEN YOU KICK THE KICKSTART THEN ITS THE KICKSTART GEAR OR BUSH IN THE SIDE COVER THATS THE PROBLEM. ITS EASY ENOUGH TO CHANGE IF YOU HAVE THE TOOLS FOR THE JOB. IF ITS A DIRT BIKE TRY TO PRESSURE WASH IT THEN SPRAY WITH WD-40 IT MIGHT HELP. GOOD LUCK IF YOU NEED HELP WITH STRIPPING IT DOWN JUST LET ME KNOW (ALSO LET ME KNOW IF ITS A LEFT OR RIGHT SIDE KICKSTART)
