Hi, 53 year old male out of Louisville. Been riding these 2 wheeled contraptions for 38 years now and I Have now purchased my very 1 st bonified scooter. A 1993 Yamaha Jog nonrunner for which I paid 2 knobby tires and an old gas tank. I may have overpaid. Just completed installing new top end, hot wired the ignition and fired it up, now for the problems:
1. Motor would idle for 5 sec. then stall. I know i will have to clean carb so i went there first, it seems the throttle slide is spinning freely in it's shaft and resting atop idle screw.Removed slide and where i thought i would find a protrusion to guide shaft instead found a small round depression on the choke side. Is there a part missing here?
2. Oil pump testing: with motor running i dissconnected oil line at carb, and nothing was flowing. With a motor this small would I even notice anything flowing? How do I Test? (running pre mix now)
3. Choke testing: stuck volt meter into a electric connection at choke and with ignition on had no reading, Normal? How do I check ?
4. Fuel petcock , mine has 3 outlets, one in front and two in back, what goes where?
5. Thanks for any advice or pointers!!!! I am having a ball fooling with this thing and cannot wait to terrorize the neighborhood at 10,000 RPM and 36 MPH
