Hello All Hope to get some help here!
Well I have a 2011 Jonway Y250T Scooter. Now I have just changed the Gear Oil and the Motor Oil with Mobile 1 synthetic oils. I dont know what the motor is. Here is the info on the plate:
Engine Family: Jonway 244cc BJNCO.25FG
IDLE 1700
thats It!
Now is there a video on how to find and replace the spark plug? I cant see it under the seat. I did see the carb and had to adjust the idle up to 1700rpm's
I would like to check the tire pressure on the 13" tires and cant find how much air it takes.
Any help would be appreciated Thanks ')

I have a 2008 so things should be similar.
Look on the tags installed under the seat. Lots of information there.
Tires on my tag said 36PSI for both tires.
Did you open the little cover over the engine? Right next to the information tags on my machine. Look down inside the hole and you will see a spark plug. Looks difficult to service but when it is time I will figure out a way. I lean a lot to 'If it isn't broke, don't fix it.' But I also do a lot of preventative efforts. .

First of all Welcome to the forum! How many miles on this scooter? I would highly recommend NOT using synthetic oil in the engine until at least 1000 miles. Good grade dino oil will do, not good for the rings. I haven't dealt with the 2011 Y250T scooters yet so help me with the engine? Vertical or horizontal, once I know that then I can offer a lot of information. Again welcome to the forum. JR

I had 300 miles on the Engine when I did the oil change.
Well it looks like "L" shape motor Helix? Well I took off the little battery cover and another little access panel under the seat still no access that I can see to get to Spark plug. Man .... does that mean I have to completely remove the fender just to get to the spark plug? If so that would really suck big time.
If I have to remove the fender to get to the plug are there a videos and or instructions on how to do that?
Thanks guys!!

Yes look like that Helix.
Now the other issue is that I live in Mile High City Denver Colorado. Now I put in 1.8 gallons of 91 Oct. ( shell ) I ran 105 miles and thats about 58.333 miles per gallon. I did do some freeway driving at around 65 miles an hour. I thought this scoot would get better miles than 58 miles for 1.8 gallons. I can smell a little gas. So Im assuming that its running a little rich for the altitude.
My question:
If I need to have the air and gas mixture on carb retuned what kind of motorcycle shop would I goto to have the carb adjusted to the altitude?

GREAT!! Now JR knows which motor you have and can get the poop on it for you.
As for having the Carb Adjusted you will have to find a motorcycle shop that will look at your scooter. A lot of them will not touch scooters, Also good mechanics that knows their stuff are hard to find. But if you find one make friends with him cause he will treat you right will charge you but fix things right and not get someone just guessing at stuff.
But if you smell gas then you are running a little rich, you yourself can Lean the Carb out a little it is very easy. You can turn the Fuel Ratio Mixture Screw Clockwise 1/4 of a turn and see how you like it. If to much then back Turn it Counter CLockwise 1/8.
If 1/4 turn it is still to rich turn it 1/4 more Clockwise etc.. Alleyoop

This will be interesting as it does sound just like my scoot. That little cover over the engine just does not seem to be big enough to do valves and spark plugs. Looking forward to JR's suggestions on how to do that work through a 2_1/2"X4" hole. Not sure if my hand will fit through there. .

Ok Thanks I'll start by turning the air gas mixture screw 1/4 turn in. And see what happends. Now I'm assuming that may be the problem for the low gas mileage I'm getting Correct?
Thanks
Hope to hear soon how how to replace plug

Well yes if your smelling gas then to much fuel is being fed, so Leaning it out a little will save on gas and you should also not smell gas. Unless it is leaking gas someplace. Alleyoop

Well tried to find the air / fuel screw but could not find it thru battery access panel
Found idle screw on left as you are face front of bike no big deal. But could not see air / fuel screw at all from battery access panel.
Any video or pics where this is at?
