Valve adjustment has nothing to do with the spark. Make sure that the kill switch is in the run position. If it is, then you should check all wire connections to the coil and the CDI. Loose connections here are the most common cause of no spark.

These scoots generally use AC from a separate stator winding to power the headlight. The engine has to be running in order for the headlight to work. There usually is a headlight switch on the handlebar like Alley said which also has to be turned on.
The valves should be adjusted especially if this has never been done. A classic cause of hard starting on these scoots is tight valves.

Welcome scootalong.  I moved your second post about your starting problem to a new thread because you posted under someone elses thread. Even though the problem may be similar, the solution may not. By keeping the threads unique, you will be able to track the results for your problem and not be confused by other members answering the OP's question. Here's your new thread: thescooterprofessor.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=chineseclassroom&action=display&thread=1991 |

Welcome to the forum, Angel. Many issues with these scoots can be avoided from day 1 by doing a PDI before putting the scoot on the road. Things like poor performance, electrical problems, starting problems, charging problems, etc., can be avoided by doing a few checks and upgrading inferior hoses and fuses. Let us know what your issues are and we should have your scoot purring in no time.

This should work and not be too hard to do especially with the radiator essentially mounted on the outside for easy access.

So, I would assume that the return hose is at the top? Is this set up difficult to burp?

Welcome to the forum, rockrider72. Glad to hear you have a cool YY250T. Up here in Massachusetts, I don't run into the heating problem with mine. However, I don't ride much when the temp is over 90 to 95 degrees. I have never reached over mid point on the temp guage. I have checked into the additional radiator and necessary connections for my scoot. This does not look too difficult to do and it might be a nice winter project. Let us know about any other projects and/or repairs you have done. |

Welcome to the forum, rockrider72. I'm guessing maybe a Roketa owner? You are a milestone member.  It would be nice to hear more about you and your Rocketa (?). Looks like you have a YY250T. Congratulations. |

Hi Ernest. It looks like you either lost your R/R output or the fuse for the headlights is either blown or there is a poor connection at the fuse block where the fuse is. If the fuse has blown, you may have a problem in the headlight wiring. Work on the headlight problem first and see if this corrects the engine speed problem. Here's a picture of the fuse block located next to the battery.  The connections underneath sometimes are loose. |

Hi, ron. Both valves have to be set properly especially for low speeds and idling.
Default for the enricher is the cold setting (needle retracted) which means it will already be set for a cold start. If the needle does not extend it will really show up as a rich condition once the engine is warmed up. This will mess up the idle. If the enricher is sticking in the warmed up condition (needle extended), then you will have trouble starting because the enricher circuit will not work but it will not affect the idle once the engine is warmed up.
