I'm just trying to see what others think I'm not doing anything till I know for a fact that's what it could be. I'll do like you said with the carburetor screw hopefully tomorrow I'll try and post a video. I'm also going to replace the CDI box and solenoid because the guy I bought it off of pretty much already lied to me by saying he cleaned the carburetor which he didn't. Like I said I'm just trying to narrow down the possible problems before I have to take it to someone that knows more than me

[loydmstewart]

I also realize you know more about this stuff than I do,which is why I'm asking for input on what other's are telling me. This scooter is my way around I'm not trying to insult anyone by any means.

[Alleyoop]

Listen up bud, Why are you replacing the SOLENOID? Tell me WHY? I don't want you to waste your money on something that is working and has nothing to do with the problem.

Let me just ask this and give me an answer.

When you turn the key on and you squeeze the brake and hit the start button does it crank the motor over?
ANSWER YES OR NO!

[loydmstewart]

No

[Alleyoop]

So now your telling me the electric start is not working?

When you push the start button to try and start it do you hear clicking noise or nothing it is dead?
DO any lights or fuel gauge work?

Oh sorry I miss understood I have lights break lights and blinkers I know with my dash lights they only come on when I turn my high beams on. It does sound like it wants to turn over but doesn't I think I have to do like you said and adjust the fuel mix screw. Like I said before it was doing the samething with the old carburetor. Also I do hear a clicking sound sometimes while others I don't hear anything but I think that might be due to the battery,it'll sound like it wants to turn over so I let off the starter then a few minutes try it again and it'll either click or nothing

[Alleyoop]

Your problem right now is a dead battery. Now you see what I mean you are ALL OVER THE PLACE you tell me it does nothing when you turn the key on and squeeze the brakes and push the start button, now you tell me it wants to turn over GET A VIDEO.

[Alleyoop]

Here is your SOLENOID.

Get a screwdriver and touch BOTH TERMINALS it should spin your starter.

[loydmstewart]

I'm sure it's the battery because I have a full charge on it i don't have a problem with it,I will do what you said with the solenoid.

[loydmstewart]

Not to confuse you but I don't know if it'll help on Monday night I got it started when I went to try and start it Tuesday morning it wouldn't start it sounded like it was going to turn over but all it did was drain the battery

[Alleyoop]

You sure leave a lot of information out of your posts that would help someone diagnose the problem. o . But I can tell you this you will keep on having problems starting and keeping it running without an air filter on it.

[loydmstewart]

Sorry I'm honestly not doing it on purpose I am at work right now so I'm typing really fast on my phone and don't realize what I'm doing. I did like you said and ordered the airfilter sadly it's coming from China I'm hoping it'll be here soon. I also tried to put my hand down over the air intake like you said and it still wouldn't turn over on Tuesday

[Alleyoop]

You could of ordered from someone in the U.S those filters just about everyone sells them.
