New to this board. My neighbor is a body man and I do the mechanical work. He came up with a nice looking Lin Hai scooter that has a throttle issue. I know nothing about these machines. It turns over but doesn't start. I can't tell what size it is. The jug looks big enough to be a 150. How do I get the body work off to get to the mechanics of this machine? Is there a choke? Do you guys have on-line manuals to help with this or know of a site to go to? The only I.D, on this is Lin Hai. The serial number is LLBMA1T283T163129. Does that help? It ought to be a nice scooter when I get it running. Thanks, Frog

Can you find the number stamped on the engine? It's usually on the lower left near the front and at the bottom. That's what will help the most. In regards to the body panels, go around the bike from the outside and remove as many speed screws as you can find holding the panels on. Then, take the seat bucket out and remove all of the bolts you can reach from in there. Things should then be loose enough to find speed screws holding the panels themselves together. Be careful, a lot of the panels also have snap tabs that can break off easily. As Mthomas, a reprobate on the forum likes to say about body work: "sudoku my friend, sudoku". Now what a math puzzle has to do with three dimensional body parts....you'd have to ask him. Rich
