Thank you.

I hope the rest of the rebuild will be ok. :-)

Hello,

I also asked this in the neighbor forum, but i thought i'll also ask here.
I am at the end of a rebuild, and i installed the crankshaft on the left case, and put the right case
on top of it.
There are 2 M6 bolts that are for the right case,
and the manual said to torque them to 1.5-2.0 kgf-m (around 15-20 Nm).

Well, i torque it to 15Nm, and one of them started to break, and the other was also on his way to break.

Luckily i was able to pull them out and the threads inside the case are ok.

Is it too strong for an M6 bolt?
I found a chart which says that M6 bolt in aluminum needs around 5 ft/lb (around 7Nm).

What do you think is the correct torque for the M6 bolts?

There are also the 2 M6 bolts on the left side of the engine head (where the timing).
What is the correct torque for them?
The manual is saying 1.0-1.4 kgf-m (around 10-14 Nm). Is it too much?

Thank you for any help.

Yes, The first thing i checked.
This cold start problem was from the day it was new, so this is how it is.
But the starting problem after 20-30 min, started after i changed carburetor. so i guess it's because of the choke that came with it.

I checked today the voltage to the choke, and it's 11.9-12.2 Volts AC.
I didn't measure the plunger.

Regarding the starting, that's the strange thing.
With the first choke (the one that extending less), i need to give it a
little throttle so it will start from cold, and even 20-30 min after i shut
down the engine.

With the second choke (the one that is extending more), the scooter
fire up right away, no throttle needed, engine cold or hot.

Both of the chokes needles are at the same height when cold, so
i really don't know what makes the scooter to start ok with
one,
and have some difficulty with the other.

Can you see the difference between the two chokes i have?
Does it look like the first one is not going all the way out?

Also, the second choke is extending in less than a minute.
I installed it inside the carburetor, and at first the rpm is high,
as it should, but after less then a minute it drops down,
while with the first choke it's taking 2-3 minutes until rpm drops down.

Do i have bad chokes?

Ok, i'll try to do more wraps.

Hi,

I have this tachometer from ebay :
www.aliexpress.com/product-fm/557819688-Tach-Hour-Meter-for-Motorcycle-ATV-Snowmobile-Boat-New-wholesalers.html

The problem is that the wire is not long enough, because i want to
install it on the front.
This is what is written on the wire that comes with it:
"E249743 AWM 1015 22AWG 105°C 600V VW-1 CHENGXING"

I got another wire (Not exactly the same), and it's working with it, but as long as the
wire is short. when i try with a longer piece of wire, the tachometer
is not working or it's showing incorrect data.

I can't find the exact wire type, and also i'm not sure if there isn't a length limitation.
Do you know what type of wire can work with that?
Anyone have this type of tachometer and made it work
with a longer wire?

Thank you.
