got bike started -guess dried out -got almost all the way home.. and either the belt broke.. or I blew the engine -had to push the bike 6.5 miles home... gawd Im tired
water was 2-3" deep -the splash hit my feet -it tried to sputter a little and then had hard time hitting gas hard but would build up speed. I stopped and started like 3 times b4 going to fill my tank and then no start at all -just keeps turning and trying.. but no "spark" -almost same as b4 they did my valves
If the engine was under water. You better drain the oil before even trying to start it or you'll trash the bearings if theres any water in the crankcase.
The coil is the device the plugwire is attached to, has 2 wires hooked to it Pos/neg and comes off with one bolt. the stator is behind the flywheel/fan!
drain the oil for sure just in case. I'd take the coil and plugwire and the plug off and bring it in the house and put it in the oven at 170 low for a while and let it dry thoroughly. also you may have gotten water in the stator. it'll dry out in time.
argh.. got forced into a "mini lake" on military and now the bike wont start -checked all hoses, wires, took the carb off to check.. just bout anything I can take off to check and still no start.. anyone have ideas?
thanx -sorry havnt been on in awhile -had stuff going on and we now live in Deep Creek -if cant fix it.. dont worry.. just have to wait till $ comes in, but thank you either way
Heh Bobby, i put yer harddrive in my laptop, same result I could not install an operating system. Harddrive is mucked up. Needs a new one. I'll see if i can find a cheap one off ebay and fix it.
Big air pump, restrictions on either end will cause problems, they have to be balanced. If you did, I'd play with the Main Jet size, mine ran fucking great with a 130, but I have a 125 in it now and it's sluggish mid throttle, when I get a chance I'm putting a 130 back in it and see what happens.
More air and fuel, now did you change the exhaust. Mine ran like crap when I just changed the exhaust until I changed the intake and jets. Probably works just the opposite too.
No in fact after I posted that I put cold intake on pops bike and now runs like shit at half throttle.and yea 125 jet coil and cdi checked and changed ???? From 70 to shit with intake im confused at the moment
welp... my exhaust pipe brackets finally broke cant really go anywhere -even if were to get a new pipe -no way to attach to the bike -but may have found a place that can rework the whole thing... hopefully
Import Cycle Center fixed my bike -they adjusted my vavles and got it working Had to do adjustments on the new carb.. but I drove it all the way home yay! lol
I think its my starter -may have replaced it a year ago.. but think its giving out :\ -went to Import Cycle Center -but couldnt get my bike there for them to just look at it -did see one of our clubs bikes there... completely gutted
no spark plug tool -everything is connected and I'm thinking only thing left is SP -and w/ all the moving (have to be out by toorrow morn) -no telling when able.. much less how to get the bike to new place
crap... bike not starting at all -replaced the carb all together and even got new fuel filter w/ it -still not starting. Its turning but not "catching fire" and starting... I'm so lost and soooo tired from moving.. cant think str8
let me tell you.. moving sux -moving a 3br town house into a 2br single wide trailer and I'm the only one that can lift stuff... gawd I hurt -have to have whole house empty by tomorrow night
I got your aurora stuff, you'll need to bring a external drive, it's about 15gb of stuff. Let me know if your coming over this morning, and bring the 10" laptop with you.
electric choke not working. check to make sure it's pluggred in, if it is it's sticking or bad. Time for a new carb, I've tried replacing just the choke and it didn't help matters waste of money. Buy a new carb off ebay. Click Here
I'm having probs starting -it just cranks and cranks till 30min later *yeesh it will catch.. and if dont keep it reved until its warm it wants to cut off... no fuel leaks.. all lines good -not sure what to check or if maybe carb needs cleaned or something... any ideas?
Took my scoot to work this morning, died about a mile from work. I think the Main Jet in the carb is clooged from sitting. She'll Idle but won't take any throttle. So I pushed to work and got a ride home tonight. I'll change the jets on my lunch break Sunday.
So my 10inch rim finally came in yesterday, and i was laughing my @ss off when i got it, the pictured show on the Sunny Style Parts section of scrappy dogs looks like a normal scooter rim, the one i received is gunna make ppl think im trying to "pimp my scoot" haha its awesome. nonetheless tho, scrappydogs is awesome. i litterally waited only 1 week for the part. within the next 2 days i shall have the scoot up and running yet again
I might be able to get it to boot from a flash drive image. Drop it off to me when you get the chance. got a new email address? Angel is looking for it!!
um... I actually have NO clue how to do all that lol for the comp I have xp cd -but its a 10" w/ no cdrom to reinstall -got a rootkit virus and destroyed the freaking image
maybe I can fix it the PC that is. As far as the Clutch, do what I said, if it ran dry it'll need to be bleed. There 2 bleeders one on the firewall and one on the slave cyclider. Usually the one on the firewall will do it. Same way you bleed brakes.
no dont have a webcam and the comp that does is broke w/ no way to fix it Brake res if full -clutch res have had to fill couple of times -might be a leak but cant find it
I've had a whole slew of people from china logging in here posting stupid ad crap in the forum so I set the New user sign up to Administartor approval.
what do you mean, the clutch won't move at all or does the pedal just go to the floor? most likely has a hydraulic clutch, did you check the resevoir? My Nissan pickup had a leaky slave cylinder and if the reservoir went dry it wouldn't shift either. If it did go dry, fill it with brake fluid, then follow the line down to the bleeder on the firewall and open the bleeder until you get a steady bleeding stream of fluid out of it and close it. Then try the clutch!
Grill cleaned and ready for CHICKEN Yeah! My brother may be coming over to have me work on his Mountainbike. Did I mention that I work on Bikes too! I ran the Eastern Virginia mountainBike Associations http//:www.evma.org/ website for 6 years. I have a Cannondale M500 frame with ALL aftermarket parts. Smooth bike. I need to get back into it again and loose this beer gut I have hehe. I will. Evma down at the moment but anyone interested they will be back up.
Oh and yes Tim we all want to ride but for me it's a little chilly at the monment and my scoot runs fine but the cowl is fucked up and i'm trying to find another one.
