Stan, how did you hook this unit up? that is a great idea. I am in the process of hooking up a thermostat guage because the guage that came with the 250 does...
i have been considering buying a used 50cc scooter to serve as a parts bike... would it be economically justifiable? do the 50cc scooters use similar gy6...
Yup, you can get a good quality nut of the same metric size at any decent Ace Hardware store. Just take your old one with you for comparison. Good luck, Chris...
Mike, Many dealers do this, although they tend to part out NEW bikes. The markup on parts is sufficient that a dealer can make more money by parting out a bike...
I haven't hit one that I didn't survive, but I do avoid them when possible. They can take a pretty good jolt without a problem, so I don't worry about normal...
Assuming you have replaced the vacuum lines and are sure you don't have a cracked intake manifold or line leaks, you need a new fuel valve/pump. Stan Rob...
I don't recall if it's a single wire or double to the sending unit, but you can pull the hump cover to get access. I just mounted the LED in the dash above the...
kurt thanks for the info on a parts scooter. i have a 150 touring de and have seen many used 50cc scooters locally for sale at fairly low prices... so i had...
That is what i am trying next. I am getting one on warranty, and I am going to try that first, and then i will just go to an electric pump if that doesn't cut...
great I am ready to roll then. I ripped out the useless radio also! ... From: Stan Jessup <ndnparts@...> To: tankscooters@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday,...

Problem solved! or should i say problems... took out the old antifreeze, it looked so cheap i even flushed the system before i put a new 50/50 mix of good...
We just had a customer drop off a Tank 250cc with 5200km on the clock. Looks like new, but looks don't count in this case. Customer was cruising along, gave it...
We do this all the time. If the scooter is damaged seveely in shipping it is not owrth replacing all the panels to us so we just strip it and use it for...
What is the total oil capacity on a 250CC? I'll bet that 1/2 quart is a big part of it. 50 PSI means the top end is fried, or a valve isn't closing. The loss...
No kick start on the 250's. I'm going to bet you have multiple issues. Since you didn't note a siezure, I'll bet on a floated valve (bent) and probably a...
Never heard of the gearbox output shaft just breaking. I have a local buddy with a JMSTAR 150 who experienced a similar failure, I haven't heard from him,...
Oil capacity for that motor is only .8 - .9 liters! May not have been much lubrication going on in there. Haven't heard much of anything bad about these...
Question: Isnt it true an engine can lose compression if its too low on oil? I know you now show 50 psi, but is that after adding oil? If the engine was...
Low oil in the engine has nothing to do with the gearbox. I'm gonna give my opinion on things, and duck. Everyone reads the setup instructions, if they get...
Parts of the engine depend on pressurized oil from the oil pump, other parts get lubed from oil carried by the cam chain, and oil slung around by the Cshaft...
ok so i am entertaining offers for this 150cc engine. it still runs, but something happened to it when it soft-seized earlier in this year. I apparently don't...
Let me know what you want for it. I don't want one to fix, but it might be good for doing some articles on the internals since I wouldn't have to fight a frame...
i'm a yungin, all my experience has been with fuel injected engines. so i'm confused here, where is the choke on my 250 touring? don't i need to put the choke...
It's an electric automatic enrichener and it's on the carburetor. Stan http://www.oregonvintage.com Scooter Parts and Service Tips MRP & PFS Authorized Dealer ...
