If Berrymans isn't sponsoring this channel you need to find a new company for your carb cleaner cause you definitely have been doing them some great advertising.
I owned a scooter shop, and most of the problems we saw were ethanol-caused carburetter problems after the scooter had sat for a while. The battery on that scooter appears not up to snuff. When it finally started, you had changed chargers, and the starter motor ran much faster. Also, with the air filter disconnected, it will run leaner.
You’re spot on with the carburetors. The pilot jet is about the size of a human hair and does clog easy. I put a capful of seafoam in the tank to keep everything clean.
Ethanol is a small engine killer best bet if you plan on not riding for a while is to drain the carburetor bowl . And or fuel tank if is going to be a really long time. Hey thanks for watching and commenting I really appreciate it ‼️

Try to adjust the lash on the valve rocker it takes a 9mm hex socket, the valve seat gets worned and thus makes a loss on compression remember to TDC before adjustment and rotate a couple of times, if the valves aren't shot, this is a common failure on GY6 engines
@@chrislavalley4062 the valve lash wasn't the reason it wasn't running it was bad gas. The valve lash on these GY6 engines can get way out of adjustment before it pre vent it from running. This scooter had a common case of sat for to long with ethanol based gasoline in it .
What stumps me is if the jets are clear and clean and the bike still won't start . Is it the carb still te problem or no it almost looked new inside but it didn't want to start still i tried i think 4 different carbs all the same thing .

Is the fuse wire on Batt?? Where does that wire run to? working on my 250cc roketa scooter and lost the ignition? Turn the key on and will not show signs of life.I can't find the wire that has a fuse going to the Batterie.
The wire with the fuse is the smaller wire connected to the + side of the battery. If your battery is down on the floorboard it most likely under the floor board somewhere.
I did hear you say you tried starting fluid in the beginning but I only saw you using carb cleaner. My experience has always been spraying carb cleaner into an engine not running creates a hard start requiring longer cranking until the carb cleaner is cleared. If you spray carb cleaner in to an engine while it's running it will kill the engine and you will see what I mean. I think if you used starting fluid it would have started right up.
Yes I said starting fluid then I corrected myself I have never experienced a scooter having a hard start problem because of using carburetor cleaner yes if you spray carbureted cleaner into a running engine it will kill it but it has been my experience you can use carburetor cleaner to start an engine and brake clean thank you for your comment
Hi Thks four your video I have a Peugeot V-Clic 50cc 4T my when I start the idle is up after around 15 seconds is caming to normal idle four few seconds is start going up and down all the times is any help please thank you very much apreciate
i have a 2012 kymco like 49cc 2stroke scooter/moped .. i was riding it a few weeks ago riding about 30 miles an hour all of a sudden it just bogged down and shut off and wouldn’t start back up i even sprayed it little bit of starter fluid and still no starter could you bless me with a few ideas on what might be the issue
Hey hello my name is Ezra and I have a 2012 kymco super 8 scooter and I had to change the starter relay but I left it sit for a while and now it won't start the plug is good as I bought a new one and the fuses I changed and still nothing don't know what to do help if you can and thanks and please
Help! I changed out the carberator after haven the pilot jet break and not come out no matter whay i tried, cut to the chase. It turns on like power, but has no turn over whay so ever. The fuel filter is empty so how can i get fuel to start flowing again?
Hey thanks for watching take vacuum line off of the intake manifold and put it in your mouth suck and blow on that line until you see fuel fill the filter. I know that sounded like dirty talk 🤣 but that's how it's done.😅
hey there, nice video en tips. i have an question, i have an gy6 with an 70cc. when i start is runs great but after it warms up it starting to making a ticking sound, like only when its getting warm. i have checkt the cilinder en piston for wear en its like brand new en noting hitting, stil put other chain gards in en new timing chain, new valve arms en the holder, en new camshaft, en new variator+rollers. it runs great non the less, valves are set to 0.08mm intake en 0.10mm exhaust. im kinde lost where i need to look for, but it does it only when warmed up after 5/10min en its riding great non the less thats the weard part, very rev happy en rev respons like its brand new, en i also check the head en puled out the valves en put new gaskets in en cleaned the exaust valve, en when i did all those things i checkt for the t line is on top dead center en that is good, checkt the barings is all good en its still the same, so where can this ticking sound be comming from? it not easy to find why its ticking only when the engine is warmed up. maby you have any advise what can do this? it has the 50cc head with the long valves en its not hitting the piston so should be good there. i hope you see my response en have some advice for me that i could check out. greatings from the netherlands 😄

Plz help... scooter sat for awhile. Cleaned carb it looks spotless...it idles fine...give it any throttle at all it dies right away...fuel bowl is full... if i detach vacuum line idle goes way up... im lost
I can’t tell u how many times I’ve cleaned my carb, checked coil, thought electric choke went…then after checking EVERYTHING, pulling the valve cover, and realizing the intake valve is so far out, it’s not even closing! 🤦🏻♂️
Can the air gas mixture cause it to not start after I rode to store it was fine came back out wouldn’t start I was adjusting the mix and I think that’s what it is
That's the ground wire it's either going to the battery or to the frame. I like to use at least two ground wires the one from the head I usually run to the battery then I run another one from the starter body to the frame you can never have too many grounds thank you for commenting and watching ‼️
I was just wondering cuz I got a Eton 4 stroke ( I usually don’t mess with 4 stroke I like 2 strokes) but it only sparks when I hit the start button and when I release the botton but not in between when the electric starter is turning over, has me like 🤔
Hey guys I have a 49cc tao tao vip future champion handsome that starts fine. My problem is when I think I have it where it idles great when warm it does a 180 and either idles to low and cuts out or it idles way to fast and won't idle down. When I bought it it didn't run at all. I bought a stator the only thing it needed besides a muffler. I purchased a new muffler put it on now it either idles to low or to fast after I think I finally got it right. PLEASE HELP!!!! I
Kevin thanks for watching sounds like the electric choke is not functioning properly . Those carburetors are so cheap on Amazon id just order a new one.
@Scooter Rehab well I found the problem, I pray anyways. The spacer between the carb and engine is cracked in multiple places. This makes twice I've replaced it. So if anyone else is having idle issues this could be one reason why.
Did you end up get running. I have the same scooter and it will struggle to start like yours but dies if I give it throttle. Checked and replaced any cracked lines but didn’t make a difference.

Sounds like a clogged jet in the carburetor and or a vacuum leak. Thank the carburetor off and unscrew the jets if you can't see threw them they are clogged
