Oka, gotcha cloudsifter. I'd consider some silicone RTV rather than an epoxy or glue. One can even find it at the dollar stores nowadays. In case you're not aware (Its not immediateely visible) that air tube has a tongue and groove fit going onto the port, to sit correctly too. Yes, a length of open ended fuel hose to route any overflow away should do, I would say. Rotso ruck! |

Just to be sure, you are securing that airbox tube at the back of the carb (As in your pic) while idling and adjusting the carb, yes? Assuming your carb is much like many GY6 scoots, this pic shows the elbow. linkcloudsifter |

OH LORT! Absolutely, switch that CDI out . I'm not sure what the high operating temp is but, NOT that hot. I'd think you may have the fuel air mixture out of whack . If it wasn't doing that before, put it back to 2 turns out. If it stablizes, turn it 1/8 turns in a direction , stop and listen for the highest RPM. If one direction doesn't achieve it, put it back to 2 out and go the other direction. Mine wouldn't adjust after a cleaning and I put a new one on for $ 20 , voila. Although, it could very well indicate a vacuum leak. Get a soapy water spray bottle and spray each air or vacuum area as its running , to possibly rule it out. If I'm right, that port on the carb is an overflow drain port that usually has a short open elbow , pointing downward. cloudsifter |

keithpetrella Wow, I answered ya last night but somehow, my post isn't showing up. I reversed my browser and was able to copy/edit/paste it: "Sorry keithpetrella , I've been away for a bit. I'll see if I can help. I only have general familiarity with scooters since acquiring this one about 8-9 mos ago but have gained a little familiarity with where to look. Post the engine family number, its probably on a plate near your fan shroud or mounted near the battery compartment. Also, are you aware that the belt would be tight until you are able to compress the front bell of the clutch assembly? I ask only because I'm not sure how well you may know your way around the scoot. I'm finding that there are several variations of the YY250T so, post pics of any I.D. plates you find , making sure as you post them to opt in the dropdown options to allow enlargement of the photos "

Excellent! It seems that you will have it rolling very soon. Good man, leaving the info for the next 300 owner DEFINITELY, read this article. it seems that you wouldn't have to rejet the carb, being a CV carb. YAY! Carburetors and Altitude |

cloudsifter , Great! Sounds like all minor stuffs to deal with and VROOM ! Once all is done, remember that it can take quite a while for the carb bowl to fill up and yes, you should have gotten more than a few drops from the bowl port. I'd pull the carb to clean it thoroughly. Those passages are likely clogged, and you are also probably correct about needing to re-jet for altitude. I'd use a siphon rather than pulling the tank, in fact that IS what I did.Then some cheesecloth to sop up anything at the bottom of the tank. On mine, the sending unit can come out without removing the entire tank , though I'm unfamiliar with your particular setup.

cloudsifter Yup! That is the same thing that mine does . I loosed it a first time, it was fine for a while, now it goes in and out of operation. I figured it gets hung up as vibration seems to jog mine loose, too. After all that I'd been through to get it on the road, I coudn't bring myself to worry too much about it until I got to ride and enjoy it a while. Oh yeah, AND heal my back from what my MRI revealed as 5 bulging discs from pushing myself too hard on it . It annoys me but, I'll wait on it
