First Run

Commissioned the new china scoot today two weeks and one day after taking the thing out of the crate. I took it out on its first run. It seems to run nicely, pretty much what I expected for a 50cc power plant. it needs some minor adjustments/tweeks here and there but nothing major. I'm an old school moped operator from long ago, it takes some getting used to with the ten inch wheels I have to admit. I'm going to have fun with it, that's all I can say for now. Scooterdepot sent me a new carb which is why I was held up getting the rig up on the road, but all seems to be ok now.

I would just replace with new. They cost around $14.95 or so.

Luke, I respect your viewpoints with regard to Chinese scoots, not a problem. What is a Morphus? Curious.......that's all.

I prefer the Keihin over the Debi carb (no pump) Understand, so the Keihin has an accelerator pump and that is your preference. Is there better response with the pump? |

That is how some people feel, it is a part of human nature.

Is there any noticeable difference in performance between a carburetor that has an accelerator pump and a carburetor that does not have one?

The sliders, they are integral with the centrifugal clutch? Trying to understand. What do the stock sliders weigh?

I also remember back in the 60's having the Coleman double mantle lanterns, and double burner camp stoves that ran on white gas.
