    Hi!!!
    My dad (older and retired) has a 1995 Honda Helix and he has been trying to get it to run for months and wasn't successful.....until he watched your video and cleaned the carb. He said the scooter runs better than it ever has!! Thank you so much for your help!!

    Ty for all the helpful information. Especially the part near the end when you mention revving quick, or long and stalling and how it needs to be more lean or rich depending on whether it bogs down on those types of revs.

    Just wanted to say thank you. I "Cleaned" my carb before watching your video. Still wouldn't run. Your example of cleaning the jet with a small wire (I used guitar string) saved me. It was plugged, and it would not run. Now it runs like a charm. Thanks for putting this out there. It really helped.

      By the way, twiddling that screw back and forth a number of times seemed to resolve the idling problem. There must have been some crap caught up in there. Bad gas will do it.

    I don't have a compressed air pump, but I did work around it with a bicycle foot pump with one of the conical attachments for inflating pool toys. I put the attachment into one end of a short carb hose and put the other end onto the pilot jet. Then I was able to blow out the blockage.

    My SYM carburetor scooter over half year that engine does not working in Taiwan!
    Due to my fuel tank located within under SYM scooter pedal, and I try to push scooter start motor switch and then I got some situations as below: (1) engine cylinder pressure is 126psi (2) spark plug has flash (3) fuel tank is not pushing gasoline through the fuel filter out? It seems my scooter fuel line system has block issue, could you offer some suggestions to help me fix my breakdown scooter here, thanks!

    @upALLniteSLEEPallDAY 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video! Cleaning out the pilot jet and the mixture jet circuit did the trick. Also, adjusting the mixture screw 2 turns helped the idle out so much. My scooter would start but only idle for a 5-7 seconds before dying. It had been sitting for 5 months over the winter. The scooter is a Lance PCH 125.

  • @paulmaland2227
    @paulmaland2227 3 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @nehpetssaid
    @nehpetssaid 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Instead of running your battery down or covering the air box with you hand to fill the float bowl, just pull the vacuum line off the intake manifold and suck in like your hitting a bong 4 or 5 times and the bowl will fill up. Put the vacuum line back on and the bike should fire instantly. Also, if your bike wont start after cleaning the carb check your valves (assuming you have already checked for spark). By the time the gy6 engines get to the 3,000-4,000 mile mark the valves will need to be adjusted. Set them to 0.004" Intake and Exhaust.

  • @Spitfireseven
    @Spitfireseven 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I also, in addition to everything you did here and this was a wonderful explanation, I placed a brand new fuel filter on the fuel line. It was a shock to find green mold growing inside the filter I'd installed just a month ago. Man these things can be problematic. Never put anything but pure new gas in there, never.

    My little Baja adirt bike became hard to start, and wasn't running real good. After about a dozen times of taking it off, cleaning it every which way but loose, and no luck, I went to Amazon and bought a new one for $12. Put it on, and it started on the first pull, and ran like a champ.

    Hello! I have a Buddy 50 cc scooter. It runs great except for sometimes it hesitates a little in the sense that it will turn off at strange times when I am going lower speeds or it will not turn on..
    In order to get it to turn on I carry a little screw driver and carb cleaner and I will take off the air filter cover and spray the intake with carb cleaner and put it back on. Then I go to start and it starts VERY good.
    It was just brought to a shop who charge like $200+ for a carburetor cleaning and spark plug replacement.
    The shop is called Boca Scooters…
    I am NOT convinced that they did honest work but I don’t know know for sure.
    I would like to have it turn on normally. (without having to have to spray the carb cleaner every time)
    I believe that I need to work on the carburetor again or get replaced altogether OR get a valve adjustment. I would like to bring it to a different shop but I don’t know really where to start.
    Gas is clean, premium used (50CC 2018 Buddy)
    Carb JUST got cleaned but NOT positive they did honest work……..
    Spark plug all new.
    Where should I start from here?

    Regarding float bowl gasket swelling at 23:36 mark. Try cleaning the gasket with soap and water (e.g. Windex) and rinse with cold water. Then treat the gasket with Prolong Super Protectant PSL60017. The gasket will usually return to its original shape. Treating with Prolong is an optional but recommended step.

    I tried to restore my bike Honda Lead 98 (2T). It kept running too rich especially in the morning. It ran for 2 days then couldnt get it to start. I am thinking of giving it another go, I wonder if I gonna need new parts. Very frustrating sometimes I just wanna scream.

    Nice job! Im having two issues, one is if I left the fuel valve open the next day the cylinder is flooded with fuel. The second one is new, in low RPM the bike is gasping but at full throttle works fine. What I need to do? thx

    Awesome video with great tips! Now I know it's an old video but I have serious issues with my carburetor for my Chinese 50cc scooter, I don't get any fuel into the cylinder at all. Any idea what it can be?
