I have a 150cc and the starter is acting up. I hit the button and nothing until I release the button and then it just makes a single click. The battery is good...
There was a problem reported with the kill switches on some scooters. I would check there first. ... nothing until I release the button and then it just makes...
Sparky, I can start it with the kick starter so wouldn't that mean the kill switch is ok? Allen ... From: Sparky Alex To: Chinese_scooter_forum@yahoogroups.com...
I would go after the starter switch then. Or a possible bad connection somewhere. If that's not it, then go after the starter itself. ... switch is ok? ... amp...
I have been having trouble with my Roketa Fiji 150cc scooter. It randomly backfires and then dies. Initially it would restart relatively easily, but then it...
Take a close look at the intake manifold. They will crack and then the engine gets too much air. They will backfire, not idle and will be very hard to start....
Thanks, I'll check that out. Though when it's cold, it starts easily. It also sounds like random static discharge around the magneto area. No visible arcing or...
sorry if i've missed some posting already on this, but can someone (alex or other) guide me through the connections for an electric fuel pump.. i think i'll be...
oregonvintage.com . I believe Stan has something written up. I need to do it too. At about a half a tank, I start to get a funny idle and at high speeds its...
that's about the tipping point for me too.. half a tank ... to do it too. At about a half a tank, I start to get a funny idle and at high speeds its...
If you have a touring model scooter, with the gas tank in front of the seat, the float in the tank probably needs to be adjusted to read the correct fuel...
Ok, but if it "spluterred" at low fuel tank level but then continued to splutter and stall every mile or so AFTER the tank was refilled what could that be due...
HEY, I JUST REMEMBERED WHAT CAUSES THIS PROBLEM!!!!! The fuel line coming from the tank to the fuel pump needs to be shortened, so that it doesn't loop up...
I dont know Alex, mine holds just over 3 gals. And I still have a good amount in the tank when the problem starts. Sparky Alex <viking_warrior_1@...>...
Thanks Alex. I am going to give that a try. Richard Sparky Alex <viking_warrior_1@...> wrote: HEY, I JUST REMEMBERED WHAT CAUSES THIS PROBLEM!!!!! The...
You're welcome guys, I remembered that I had the same problem, and that was what i did to fix it. ... gallons ... gas it ... have less ... <dcsf2001@> ... ...
I thought I remembered you having this problem. Thanks. I havent had a chance to get in there and do it on mine yet. Sparky Alex <viking_warrior_1@...>...
Sparky, When I try to start my Scoot, a puddle of gas comes out of the bottom. I haven't pin pointed the spot but do you have any ideas? I haven't done...
The fuel filter is where I'd start. They are known to go bad. You may need to pull some body panels off and just trace the problem. Needless to say.... I...
Can you buy replacement bulbs at just Pepboys or some other auto parts store? Allen ... From: Richard O To: Chinese_scooter_forum@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday,...
Richard, I won't have that problem because it won't start. I'm thinking a hose came unhooked somewhere. Thanks for the input. Allen ... From: Richard O To:...
I have found SOME. But not all. try oregonvintage.com . Stan carries lots of stuff like this. If he doesnt have it, he can probably tell you where you can find...
I had a fuel leak (small drip), I traced it until I found the nipple on the fuel filter had a seam on it from the moulding process which compromised the seal. ...
Most of the lightbulbs can be found at the local auto parts stores. Most fuel leaks can be attributed to the little wire "clamps" the chinese use for holding...
Sparky, The leak was at the end of the throttle cable (I think it was the throttle cable). The screw was loose and I tightened it up and she started right up....
FYI I have a 150cc and my store replacements were a sylvania 9003. They are 55w instead of 15w so they will be super bright. $10.00 at advance autoparts...
I would like to caution anyone using any non-stock lights in their scooters. The wiring on these scooters was not sized to handle the load of 55 watt bulbs,...
DO NOT USE 55watt bulbs. The wiring and plastic lens cannot handle the draw and the heat generated. Stan http://www.oregonvintage.com Scooter Parts and Service...
