Generic Race 50 Something wrong! By ukscooterboi (Read 876 times)

Hello,

Basically one of my friends got a generic race 50 scooter and when you kick start the moped it won't start if does it takes ages, If i spray Easy Start then with one kick start it starts up and then i try rev to keep it up and then it dies.

I found out that the fuel line was not the correct one so i gone to the store and got a new fuel line to replace it, will give a clean on the carburetor today and try it.

I start with electric button and it still takes some tries, to start it up.

Any advice guys?

Check the condition of your plug and spark, clean your carb and jets, check vacuum lines for leaks.

What was it?

Basically my mate got his moped into a garage and instead of them fixing the problem with the Fuel Pump, so they got a homemade fuel pump with the fuel line straight to the carb without fuel filter or anything.
So i gone store and got a fuel line the guy in the store gave it as he asked £1 for it and my mate had a brand new fuel filter and i dropped some fuel into the vacuum line & closed a bit of air mix on the carb and now its all working. for my mates moped to pass on MOT he needs a new rear break lever as its lose on the mount on the handlebars so when the lever is back to normal place, the break light is on and when i break it the light is off, so i checked the wiring and it was all bless so just needs a new lever and the moped is perfect.
