I suggest Jack Daniels (Black) neat and a Bud chaser. Don B.

Up date, did not get to work on the scooter this weekend. Grandson said the weather is to nice and he wanted to ride. Then I got a call last night from my other Grandson, he bought the scooter from his cousin. Stated that after riding it for 3 hrs. (running fine). Stopped by his Mothers house went to leave and the scooter would idle fine but at 1/4 to 1/2 throttle it would bog down and not take any gas. I told him to feather the throttle and see if it would take gas, no go same thing. I thinking that it started running to rich or that the timing is not advancing (if it does)? Keep in mind that this scooter has a 72BBK, UNI filter and modded exhaust, stock carb. and head also stock cam. can not remember the main jet size but has 35 pilot jet. Any ideas/suggestion will be greatly appreciated. This scooter is going to be the death of me yet. I have used propane for years to check for vacuum leaks, unlit of coarse, Don B.

Yes, the connector for the enrichner. The spades were not bent, one was broke off, repaired. I must have done it when checking wires for the no start problem. Starts much better when cold. Don B.

Yes, I very much learned something trying to figure this problem out. But cold staring this scooter is a trip. You have to prime the heck out of the carb. But once it starts and warms up a little it is fine. All kinds of power and it has a 72cc kit in it with modded exhaust and a UNI filter. Grandson stated, that I should start a scooter repair shop, my answer, there is no freakin way. Again Thank you everyone for all the help. Don B.

Thanks for the replies guys. bige, I am going to go thru the wiring again. I have four grounds on the scooter, three I added from the battery negative side. sprocket, I am going to recheck the kill and igntion switches. You are right about the wire connectors, Chinese junk I have replaced about 90% with USA connectors and as far as I can tell they used acid core solder and they did not do a very good job at that. Don B.

Thank you Rich & Dr.JR for your replies. Rich,the picture that you posted for Scrappy Doc is the one I bought along with Hi-po coil and CDI from Scrappy Doc. The air gap between pickup coil and flywheel magnet checks .032 and I see no way to adjust. Dr. JR, the wire colors thats in your reply are the same on the new stator and the old stator. I guess that it could be possible that the new stators pickup coil could be bad, as the old and new there is no ACV from blue and white wire. Any more ideas/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

felliott, Thank you for your reply. This scooter has .032 air gap and I see no way of adjusting the pickup coil. Don B.
