Hello could any body tell me if the engine on my Jonway GY50 4 stroke needs to be warm to check then oil. If not where abouts on the dip stick should the level be and what oil should I use to top it up . Thanks

Try checking the tappets. My sons scooter had similar issues took it in last week changed the battery and had tbe tappets altered seems to be better did cut out twice but asked my son if its done it again he tells me no. So fingers crossed thats it. Might be worth a look.

Got the scooter back yesterday.. starts on or around the 3rd attempt mechanic recons it needs a new starter motor. Has anybody any idea if it will still be ok to use like this. Also ran great after picking it up after about 8 miles it cut out at the traffic lights but restarted again after 2 attempts mmm dont know what caused that... done it again when I took it out but started up again anf and not done it since. Put it on charge on my optimate over night and no problem starting this morning so fingers crossed its ok now... just hope it's ok with the starter motor. .

Think its a fuel problem, started when it was cold the auto choke came on ran fine kept the revs high when stopped and took it back home. Guess what turned off and restarted but no joy. Took the line off the vacuume and when I pressed the start button fuel came out so thats ok. It must be the valves or carb I think. It tries to fire but it wont thats what is draining the battery I think.

Managed to get our Jonway qt50 got it running last night and been out on it today. Went to go back out about 2 hours later but wouldnt turn over and battery flat. Recharged the battery eventually started but cut out again. No it wont start even after heating the spark plug. Checked the fuel filter and reconected the pipe but no joy.. any ideas thanks.. put the battery back on charge and it fired up after a few goes went out for a spin but cut out after about 3 mins and wouldn't restart so pushed it home back on charge and the optimizer is saying Recovery... when it stopped it was -2 so dont know if that had anything to do with it.Thanks

I thought that just hope it's nothing more than a new battery. It wouldn't start on the kick either but all the lights and indicators are working fine so no problems there. We will take if for a good run for about and hour or so and leave it overnight and see what happens. One thing though how does a scooter charge it's battery

Thanks. I bought the scooter in December not sure when it was last used. The scooter will be used on a regular basis from now on as my son has passed his test. When I had it going yesterday it stated while connected to the optimizer and showed 13v I disconnected it and after about 5 mins I turned it off when I tried to turn back on it was dead connected the optimizer back up and showed 11.9 v ... Fingers crossed it just needs a good run
