It will be harder to turn at one point if there IS compression and will continuously turn easily if not?

I ran my 50cc scooter, a fixer-upper replacement for stolen one, one day and then the next day, I took out the spark plug and screwed in a piston-stop to be able to remove the gear in order to check the condition of variator weights. I was unable to remove the bolt and gave up. Since putting it all back together, I have been unable to start it even though new solenoid, magneto and coil have been installed. Fuel lines have also been checked and the fuel petcock is also new...fuel is getting to the carburetor or whatever. What else could be causing it not to start? It ran good before I used the piston stop etc as described above.

Three wires on both. I tried a brand new sensor and the same thing happened...it went all the way to full and stayed there even though the tank is not full.

The gas gauge goes all the way to full and stays there even with new sensor...manually adjusting it from full position to enpty etc. Does this have something to do with one of the three wires...e.g. disconnecting one of them?

It was running, then I did some work on it, and now it won't start. The rubber on the spark plug end of the ignition coil came off when I was working on it, and that has been said to affect the connection to the plug. I have a new one coming in the mail.

Thanks, It would be nice to know for sure since I am using my kick-start until my new solenoid arrives in the mail. It's confusing because green is the "new negative" whereas black has always been. The green wire is negative so it's logical to think the green on the terminals is also.

My wires came off my ignition coil on my typical 50cc Chinese scooter and I didn't see where they had been connected. The two wires coming from the spark plug or whatever are yellow/black and green. The two terminals on the coil itself have colored plastic at the point where they emerge from the coil, one is green and the other is black. By referencing the color schemes mentioned, which wire goes where? Read more: thescooterprofessor.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=discussion&action=display&thread=2073#ixzz2CBCWrOx6 |
