Check the plug wire to be sure both ends are securely attached, and check the wires to the coil.

Check all vacuuum fittings to be sure you have no air leaks or disconnected hoses. It might be the diaphragm, but it's still new, so unlikely.

Let it idle for a while to heat up, then raise the idle speed tp keep it from dying out. Run it for a long time and keep giving it throttle to see if you can get the response back in the throttle.

It just sounds new so be patient and learn how to fiddle with the carb.

No se connecta la manguera fuel drain a nada, no mas la deja colgando. Solamente sirve cuando se esta vasiando el fuel bowl.

Pero la crank case breather se connecta al air box (filtro). Que no hay un lugar sin tubo alli? Si esta abierto alguna connection por el vac line, chupa mucho aire, y no corre el motor, no mas chupa aire.

En el techo del carb hay un diaphramo de gommo, si esta torzido o ojerado no se levanta cuando se avanzamas resio.

I reiterated what raford said to just let the drain hose hang, and asked if there isn't a spot on the airbox to put the vent hose, and a loose vac line will suck too much air to run the engine

And to check the rubber diaphragm in the top of the carb for tears or leaks.

Sorry for my Spanish and English

I turned my daughter loose on a 50 when she got a job at 14. It enhanced her independence and faciliated her entry into adulthood.

She abandoned the first one when the petcock failed, and had the second one stolen. The third one served for another year, then she sold it to buy a car.

She sold the car to buy a Stella 150, and now she has a car and a scooter. I bought the car, of course, and paid for half of the Stella.

Still, I'm helping her because she makes continual progress, and it started when she got her first scooter.

Maybe a V-guide got chewed up and a roller turned, or the high miles rollers are still in there.

Just gotta open it up and see what's going on.

Research reveals that the Daelim does have a Kymco engine, so belts and rollers are available, but we need to know which engine, the one used in the Grand Vista, Bet'n Win, People, or Exciting

That's a Kymco variator but it may be correct for the Daelim, though. For having high miles it sure is clean in there, and that belt looks new, so someone was in there, and it looks like they put the wrong belt.

Well done getting that cover open, and forget what I said about strong arming some mope to work on it. You're perfectly capable of fixing it on your own, and we are all impressed and willing to help any way we can.

Hit that variator nut 3 times with the impact wrench and it should spin right off. Then pull off the fan and free the belt, then slide the variator off and open it to see if the rollers are in good order. You'll need to measure them, they'll be 20mm x 12mm or 18mm x 14mm or 23 x 18 or 20x15, then weigh them and they'll be 16 gram or 14 gram each, then the easy part is to count them, there'll be either 6 or 8.

The rollers may be new as well, but be sure they fit the variator, as they may be the wrong size as well.

You should be able to convince a mechanic to fix the transmission their abilities. Anyone who's
competant can examine and diagnose the problem.

They're very simple machines compared to the modern motorcyckles they usually work on.

How near is a shop? Usually they send a trailer, pick it up and fix it. These guys are going into winter and they need your business. tell them you'll pay their rate to open it up and diagnose it, then you can order the parts for them to install.

If you are comfortable doing the work, then by all means, proceed, but you can have it done for a fee, I'm sure. If you call a Yamaha shop, tell them it's a Yamaha, a Honda shop, Honda. I trpolly just needs a belt after all those high miles, $150 bucks installed would be fair, less would be better.

Are you a mechanic?

Yes.

My scooter won't go, can you fix it?

Oh, no, I don't work on scooters.

But you said you're a mechanic, I want you to work on my scooter, you have tools, you can figure it out, What do you get, 60 bucks an hour, OK, I'll pay that, but you gotta get started, ready, go, I'm paying for this, now open up that CVT cover, there's a belt, a variator and a clutch in there, see what's wrong with it.

Hurry up, it won't go, and I have ship to do.

I'm sorry, I'll just go wait over here

If you pull the rubber thingy back on the throttle cable where it comes out of the handgrip, you'll find the throttle cable tension adjuster. Loosen the lock nut and adjust the cable by turning the long nut till all the threads are inside.

You can see it in the left photo of your scoot beneath the right handgrip,
