hello
I have a TNG ls49 got it free and not running now running but when I throttle belt spins and moves the clutch and variator scooter will not move forward not even under its own weight I did replace the belt I did inspect the clutch and clen and scour the lining surface and bell housing surface I only inspected variator for worn rollers and put back together originally it would not start but found a bees nest in the muffler and cleaned it out and then it started but I can not figure out why it won't move forward

Are the rpms rising? If it is and the belt is moving up the variator and down the clutch pulley, then it means your Clutch pads are not catching on the bell .

[bowzer]

yeah when i throttle it up it screems belt on the variator moves outward and on the clutch belt moves inward any suggestions I mean the scooter has 125 miles and pads and clutch looks in great shape like not worn out is what I mean is there an adjustment I can make or get a new clutch is the only option I was recently told that no air box cover and filter would also make it respond this way I do not have a cover or filter for the air box need to order one .would a cone style filter work for this I was told it wouldn't not to wast my time on it

[geh3333]

It has nothing to do with the air filter

Your clutch pads are either not engaging the clutch bell or there is an issue inside the gearbox.

The splines on the shaft may be wore ? Never seen that happen before but def possible. Is the clutch bell spinning ? Or is it stationary as the belt drops in the clutch pulley?

[bowzer]

the clutch bell is spinning rear tire spins as well when on the stand but when put on the ground it won't move eaven under its own weight

[bowzer]

is it possible that clutch bell is to large for the clutch ? may clutch is grabbing and spinning the bell but not enough when it has weight on the rear tire ?

[geh3333]

Does the scoot bog down under weight or do the rpms climb and the scoot doesn't move ?

[geh3333]

Have you disassembled the clutch to inspect it?

[bowzer]

I have only removed the bell and clutch but have not disassembled clutch when it's sitting on the ground and I throttle up it boggs but dose not die or stall out when on the kickstand and I throttle up up rpms increases rear tire and clutch and bell and variator spin belt on variator moves outward and inward on the clutch

[bowzer]

just wanted to let you know that when I picked up the scoot it was not running and sitting for a while how long I don't know and plastics were removed like someone trying to work on it but no other history on the scoot

[bowzer]

the reason I didn't disassemble the clutch was clutch pads look very good not worn-out practically new and not sure what else to look for if I did disassemble clutch

[donwjaco]

Did oil get onto the clutch pads or onto the belt causing it to slip, just a thought.

[bowzer]

I dont see any oil on clutch pads or belt and belt looked good but replaced it anyway cleaned off pads with sandpaper and cleaned bell with sandpaper as well but no signs of oil on anything
