E10 unleaded petrol – can we use it?
Hi everyone,
Is there any technical information available for the use of the new fuel in MZ motorcycles. I haven’t been able to find anything to say yes or no. I’ve recently topped up the petrol tank in my 1990 MZ 251 ETZ with it in but not sure if it will damage it or if it’s safe for regular or occasional filling.
Kind regards,
Chris
301 jetting
Greetings all. I’m in the process of converting my outfit to 300. I have a 301 barrel and head ready to be grafted on to my 250 engine . I’m going to use a bvf carb, does anyone know if the jets are different to the 250. And if so what size do I need. Cheese
Exhaust leak at clamp joint on ETZ 251 and front wheel bind
Hi everyone,
Looking for answers to the two small issues pre taking restored motorcycle to its first MOT for 16 years!
On tick over and a little light revving in the shed I have noticed a dribble of oiliness coming from under the clamp holding the down pipe and silencer together. I have tightened the clamp up and it has diminished but still drips a bit. Is there supposed to be a gasket there as I can’t seem to find reference to one other than possibly an ‘exhaust elbow gasket’ but no clue as to where or how to fit it and the shape seems wrong!
The other issue is a slight bind on the brake pads which happens for about a quarter of the front wheel turn. It doesn’t stop the wheel turn and I think the disc is true and the wheel looks true and I’m not personally overconcerned but I want it to pass the MOT! grateful for any help. Kind regards, Chris

Tax and MOT for restored motorcycle
Hi fellow MZ riders,
I’ve just restored my MZ251 ETZ solo m/cycle. It has been SORN since 2006 although DVLC ceased sending me SORN declaration demands after 2013. I now wish to get it back on the road, particularly as I’ve invested a great deal in getting it back into a good condition and want to remind myself of the pleasure of riding it! Do I need to notify DVLC before I seek to insure it and have it MOT’d as I won’t be able to get it taxed beforehand. Anyone with recent experience of this?
Kind regards to all fellow restorers and MZ lovers.
Chris
Standing room
Now then, greetings chums. I’m on the blag. Does any bod have a center stand for a 251 that they would part with? I fitted a stand from a ts250 to my latest project as I had one in a box. Sadly it touches down at very modest lean angles and is very un nerving. Cheese

Dismantling generator on ETZ251 – how to undo rotor?
Hi everyone,
I’ve acquired a Tezet electronic ignition kit to replace the points system on my 1990 ETZ 251. Trouble is the Haynes Manual does not describe or show how to remove the existing generator from the engine. Allen key on central bolt merely turns the engine over like the kick start. Do I need a special tool to remove the generator? Thanks in advance for any help with this
Old tools
Oi oi just had a clear out of my lock up and have a lot of old hand tools to move on, mainly screwdrivers/spanners/ sockets. Does any one know of any charities that take old tools to recycle/ reuse in the 3rd world. I find it impossible to throw them away, which it is why they were in the lock up to start with.
by third world I mean Lancashire/ Lincolnshire/wales/Africa
or if anyone fancies a fertiliser sack full of old tools you are welcome to collect.
August Yorkshire section meeting
Oi oi chums, the Yorkshire section meeting for August will be at the Breighton Ferry pub YO86DH near Selby. There is a camp here the weekend of 6/7/8 august and the section meeting will be Sunday lunchtime from 12. I have chosen this venue as most things the Yorkshire section organise tend to be in the West riding. Hopefully this venue will tempt some lads from the eastern bloc to visit.
Any more details contact me or for camping Duncan Kirk
