|
1. |
My chain keeps flying off, what's wrong? |
Your chain could
be too tight or too loose, or the chain is not aligned properly
with the rear sprocket. Use the Axel Adjuster to make the
necessary corrections. |
|
2. |
I have a hard time starting my engine, what might be
wrong? |
A) Make sure your
gas tank has gas and you have pumped the carburetor primer bulb
(clear plastic bubble under the engine.) B) Make sure your
fuel line has no kinks and the line in the gas tank reaches the
gasoline. C) Check the spark
plug wire for connection. D) Check the
fuel/oil ratio. Too much motor oil in the mixture could clog the
carburetor. E) Make sure the
kill switch is not engaged. Sometimes, the kill switch is
bad, so go to the bottom of your scooter and unplug the kill switch
wire, then try pull starting the scooter. F) If too many
attempts have been made to at starting the engine, there may be
excessive fuel in the cylinder. So, allow time or remove spark plug
to allow fuel to evaporate and then re-connect. H) Pump the
priming bulb repeatedly at least 10 times and make sure you can see
the fuel going in the carburetor. Make sure you prime it at least
10 times before you pull start it if it still wont start try the
choke in the opposite direction again priming it 10 times at least
also give it a little gas while using the pull start once the
engine is broke in hold in the break and use the start button make
sure you have primed it 10 times and are giving it gas. |

3. |
My scooter idles fast and doesn't run
right. |
Look at where your choke switch
is, inside there is a screw that has a spring on it. That screw
allows you to adjust the carburetor. Do a quarter of turn to
see if there is any improvement. |
|
4. |
I adjusted the carburetor like you told me, but it still
doesn't run right. |
|
It's probably the carburetor mounting screws. The screws have
likely loosened and the engine is sucking in air beneath the
carburetor, thereby running lean/fast. Take off the air
filter and check the screws mounting the carburetor. You may
want to remove the carburetor and the intake manifold completely
and inspect and clean the gaskets. |
|
5. |
My motor is locked. I can
pull start it, and try to turn the Motor gear sprocket but it
doesn't move. What could be the cause? |
The motor could be
frozen or locked up, if someone put pure gasoline in the gas tank,
with out mixing 2-cycle motor oil in. Or a motor screw is
loose, causing a part to block the Motor Fan (Flywheel) from
turning. |
|
6. |
Are the Motor gear
sprocket and the rear sprocket interchangeable between gas
scooters? |
|
No, Never. Some gas scooter use the thick chain, so you need a
thick motor gear sprocket and thick rear sprocket. Some gas
scooter use a thin chain, so you need a thin motor gear sprocket
and thin rear sprocket. |
|
7. |
The electric start on my
scooter does not work but the scooter works fine with the pull
start. What could be the cause of that? |
|
Make sure that the battery is fully charged. Usually the
charger turns GREEN when it is done charging. Make sure that
you hold down on the break before you push the electric start
button. That should solve the problem. |
|
8. |
Can I ride my electric scooter in light
rain? |
|
No, it might short out the electric component. In addition, t is unsafe to ride
any electric motor powered vehicles in wet weather conditions or on
wet surfaces in general.
|
|
9. |
Nothing works
on my electric scooter, what's wrong? |
|
It might be a bad
fuse, check the fuse. For some scooters, the fuse is attached
to the Control Module (Control box). It could be the battery, too,
but it's rare. |
|
10. |
My Scooter takes off and it won’t STOP! |
If the scooter is
moving when you turn the key to the "ON" position without turning
the throttle, then you need to replace the throttle or the control
module (the brain) If the scooter
takes off on you without turning the key to "ON", then you need to
replace the control module (the brains) |
|
11. |
How do I know when my scooter is done charging
up? |
|
For most chargers, the blinking green light means it's still
charging. When it's just green light, it's done
charging. |
|
12. |
Nothing seems to work, even if I plug the charger in the
wall socket. |
It might be a bad
ignition switch. If you open the panel under the ignition switch
and connect the 2 wires coming from below the ignition switch to
each other (this bypass the switch). If the scooter works,
then you either have a bad ignition switch or bad connection going
to the ignition switch. |
