Definately looks lean. Don`t forget your A/F screw only controls mixture from idle to 1/4 throttle, primary jet from 1/4 to 1/2, main jet 1/2 to full throttle, all overlapping to a certain extent. Ideally you need a longish stretch of road with a pull off at the end, go full throttle for a couple of hundred metres and then cut the engine whilst going full pelt, coast to the side of the road and then check the plug. Just to double check, you have the clip in the slot nearest the needle end ?

Does your headset look something like this ?, as I recall your model having a front and back section, not top and bottom. The back section with switches, dash etc. stays in place and the front section is unclipped and hangs free on the wiring. If you double check for anymore screws, then place a very thin bladed screwdriver in between the front and back sections at the sides they should come apart. Once the sides are pulled gently apart you can get the screwdriver in between the sections at the top edge and gently pop the clips apart there. Once the front is removed there are screws holding the back section to the handlebars.

Can`t help with the threads unfortunately, but if you don`t have any luck with a puller, pick up a brass drift around 20-30mm diameter from your local hardware/machine shop. With one of those, a hammer and two longish flat bladed screwdrivers you can remove most flywheels. Place the screwdrivers on either side of the flywheel with the blades just under the edge of the flywheel. Get someone to place light pressure on the screwdriver handles using them as levers. Undo the flywheel nut so that the top is level with the end of the crank threads, then unscrew one more half turn. Place the drift on the end of the nut and give it a sharp blow with the hammer. Depending on how tight the flywheel is, it normally takes 1-3 blows of the hammer to pop the flywheel off the taper.

It seems to open ok for me, do you need to update your pdf reader ? You haven't mentioned that you changed the ignition coil, that would be the next step, it should come with a new lead and cap so that would take those out of the equation as well.

I have a problem with starting my scooter too. I cannot find out where the battery is located on my SYM fiddle ll scooter. Anybody know? azwinter On the floor where you put your feet should be a plastic flap held in by, I think, four screws. The battery is under that flap.

For starters try a new spark plug to see if that makes any difference. If not, pop the spark plug out and do a compression test, to check if the bore and rings are in an acceptable condition.

There are quite a few cdi`s which have a limiter on, besides the Adly, although the wire that needs snipping varies in colour between models. Some have the loop, others have the wire disappearing off into the loom. Unfortunately there isn`t any hard and fast information except searching for a particular model on the net under 'derestriction'.

I can`t say for sure but I have a recollection that the Adly 50`s have a rev limiter in the cdi. Ideally you could`ve swapped cdi`s with the second Adly to see if the first one would rev higher.

I doubt it`s your starter motor, it`s more likely to be the connections on the cable as I stated above.

Intermittent faults are always the worst to sort out. It sounds like you may have a poor connection either at the solenoid end or the starter end of the starter cable and/or a poor earth. Maybe pop the starter cable off, clean the ends and connections on the solenoid and starter motor. Then check any earth cables where they attach to frame/engine.

Before replacing parts you`re going to have to narrow down the problem. It could be spark related or fuel. I take it there was no unusual mechanical noise when the engine cut out ? Pop the spark plug out and place it in the cap then hold it against something metal on the engine, crank the starter and see if you`re getting a decent spark. If no spark then work you`re way back through the system to ignition lead/coil and so on. If you are getting a spark then take out the air filter and try a short squirt of something like 'easy start' down the intake, then crank the starter. The easy start should make it fire up for a short moment which would suggest fuel starvation to the carb. One other thing, I think the Jonway 250 is liquid cooled, did the temp gauge go up at all before it stopped ?

Built in the early `60s with an automatic transmission. They weren`t a commercial success for Triumph who tried to cash in on the scooter boom of the time. It took a huge percentage of there R+D budget to develop, but never paid off. The bloke who owns the station where I take my bikes for their annual tests bought one quite recently to restore, it`s a beautifully simple machine about the size of a Vespa small frame. Maintenance however is a lot easier to carry out than on a Vespa, due to the sensible way in which the panels are easily removed. The bike was a bit of an innovation at the time having a CVT, unfortunately the 100cc engine was only capable of a top speed of 45 mph so a bit underpowered. CVT Advert Frame Production line
