I just wanted to give an update about my epic struggle with this variator nut. I am not sure HOW much torque they put on this dang thing at the factory, but it...
2006 Touring 150 DE. When I apply the brake or turnsignal, the dash lights and tail lights get really bright and then burn out. Worse yet, I think it fried the...

It is time for you to consider a "NUT SPLITTER"! I'm not speaking of my last,and final,girl friend, it is a tool that fits around the nut and applies force...
Is the Strada made by the same co. thats make the Tank? I was looking at a strada the other day the grand touring 150 & it looks exactly like my tank touring...
Okay. I now have 65oo km on the Tank Racer 150 DE. I has started "cutting out" or hesitating abruptly when you approach top speed. Things I have done hoping...
They are indeed made by different companies. Most scooters look the same on the outside since they all use the same plastics but as far as the parts inside and...
I have the same problem, however in addition to that, I found that there is no exhaust manifold gasket under the scooter either. I think the automatic choke...
Fuel starvation. You need to get a 12v fuel pump and it will probably go away. A few others have seen this... including me. I hope one day to have a disease...
That's right - I just installed my pump a week ago, and you know what - after finally getting the carb adjusted just right, there is ZERO hesitation at full...
You want to check the carburetor intake hose where it is connected to the airbox, when the hose slips off, it starts hesitating at high rpm's. Just reconnect...
Thanks for everybody's suggestions. The new tool I made on Friday at work, combined with a long cheater bar on my ratchet did the trick. When the nut finally...
When I took my 150cc Racer apart I found that the intake hose was split in many places. Clearly it is designed to do a 90 degree turn but they force a 180...

I will preface this statement with "yes, I am an idiot, but" are you saying that you are adding a fuel pump to the system-not just replacing it? _____ From:...
Keep in mind that only some models (eg Tank Touring 150/250) with the tank below the carb can use an electric pump. I do not recommend using one on a gravity...
Linda, Yes, it's added. It helps even out the fuel flow. On most normal and unmodified systems (like the one on my courier) the fuel flows only from the...
I know this may seem like a real no-brainer, but here it is. Is there a trick to removing the stator on a TANK 150DE (2006)? Before you all guffaw, both...
John, it sounds like you are talking about the rotor (some call it a flywheel) rather than the stator, which is the large metal cup that attaches to the...

It won't help YOU, but put a coating of Anti-Seize on the shaft before you seat it again and the next poor schmuk will thank you. ;) Stan tankeryankertoo...
Yep, the next guy will thank you because you stand a good chance of splitting the flywheel at the crankshaft keyway, and you will have bought a new flywheel. ...
Ok I am sure this has been asked and answered a thousand times, so I apologize. My friend has a 2006 Tank Sporty 50QT-9. Ran pretty decent last year, and he...
James, that comment makes no sense whatsoever. Anti-Seize is NOT going to cause damage and it leaves less chance of the Chinese steel creating a rust bond,...

Drain fuel, replace with fresh, clean plug regap, make sure you have fuel flow to carb, make sure you have spark. Then if all is good and stil no start, let us...
The male taper on the crankshaft acts like a wedge, and you put a HUGE outward force on the flywheel as you tighten the nut. If you put neverseize between the...
