Well I checked the voltage coming from the solenoid to the starter and I have power to the starter, I even directly connected the battery to the starter and nothing happened so I am thinking I have a bad starter. Anyone know where to find a new one?

the battery is about a week old and was working perfectly until this happened with the solenoid but i did have a large bare wire sitting on metal frame for probably quite awhile. do you know where I can find a new solenoid like this at an auto parts store?

No it did not run when it was bridged it just clicked, which would mean I have a bad connection somewhere right? And the battery is brand new fully charged

I have a 2004 Cfmoto 150 ejewel and when I push the starter button all I hear is a loud click from what looks like a solenoid with a wire that comes in from the motor and attaches and then goes out directly to the battery with a wiring harness and fuse attached to the top, my question is what exactly is this and where do I find another one? I think I shorted it out by having some of the wire exposed to the frame. Thanks Attachments:

Okay good news I have gotten the scoot running and rideable, able to idle and start with the choke on without spraying fuel into it. Still difficult trying to pin down an exact idle setting though. (sometimes will die at a stop after a longer ride) cleaned out the carb completely and reset the float. So that seemed to do the trick. The other thing is man this thing is really slow, I was disappointed it takes forever to get to 50 it seems. Is there a performance exhaust available for the water cooled motor? any other options to speed it up a bit?

Also, if I clean the carb by spraying out/wiring out the passageways, what should I soak the carb in as well? Seafoam?

Ok well the auto choke enricher is there in the picture just disconnected, because that's the only way the engine will start is with it off and spraying fuel into its hole, and the intake manifold DOES have a vacuum port with a hose connected to it just like in your picture, Alleyoop. And if I take off the air box and replace it with a UNI filter then what do I do with the whole egr and vent hose system with its 2 ports coming out of the engine? It wont run right with those hoses off will it?

Hey guys I am new to the forum as I have bought my first scooter that I have had a problem that I just cannot figure out, I have owned a couple other scooters and cycles just never anything that gave me a real hard time. I have a 2004 CfMoto Ejewel 150cc with a GY6B i believe it's called liquid cooled motor. I cannot find anything on these motors or scooters hardly at all. Really frustrating. I have taken a bunch of pics in relation to the problems which are s1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa432/milanoredferrari/This bike only has 66 miles on it according to the odometer, but not sure if the motor is original. I have never got it running right since I bought it, supposedly the scoot has been sitting in a barn for quite a few years. The scooter will start cold only with the auto choke off by spraying fuel into the hole the choke needle goes into, and then by covering it with my thumb, will crank for about 5-10 seconds while spraying then will start and will run fine (with my thumb off) as long as I apply throttle, will rev fine and run fine, and the auto choke/fuel enricher will extend as supposed to. Sometimes it will start by spraying fuel down the throat of the intake with the vacuum hose off, (then put on again) But as soon as the throttle is off, the engine dies. It is much easier to start again once warmed up. There is a open port coming off of the airbox near the carb as you can see in photos, with no obvious extra vacuum line to apply it to? So I do not know what that is there for..And I believe I have the vacuum circuit connected right. I have cleaned the gas tank out and also had the carb cleaned out and the jets at a local scooter shop. The idle screw is tightened and extended fully, and I reset the air/fuel screw to 2 1/2 turns and tried to adjust it while running to possible richen the mixture thinking it was lean and would idle that way, with no luck. It obviously has spark and has enough compression to blow my finger off the spark plug hole..The plug was WHITE when I pulled it out after running it about 10 minutes which would mean it was lean. But it seems to be getting fuel. I replaced the fuel line coming out of the silver 3 port fuel valve thing on the line and replaced it with a 1/4" line, maybe that is too big? I am totally confused on this scooter and just cannot get it to run right. Really need help and any input is very much appreciated as this was going to be my main source of transport for the summer. Thanks, Matt Attachments:

I have a 2004 CFMoto Ejewel with the 150cc liquid cooled engine with electronic choke. The bike has never started with the auto choke on, I removed it to find out it was not working even connected straight to the battery..I then covered 2 of the 3 holes where the choke was and sprayed starting fluid into the 3rd top hole and once I then covered that hole while cranking it, it would start but not idle just hit higher rpms if I kept the throttle open. I guess mainly I am wondering where I can find another electric choke solenoid to fit this carb and all I can seem to find is ones for gY6 motors...will one of those fit? I realize it is probably better to get a manual choke conversion kit but I also want to use the automatic remote start...But if that isn't a valid option then I will go the manual choke route but also dont know which kit would work on this motor. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
