[replyingto=tvnacman]tvnacman[/replyingto]It looks like it's the starter drive itself. Took one out of another scoot that came by yesterday and put it this scoot, all worked great. Took the not working drive and put it in the 2nd scoot... no start! So I have 2 starter drives (1 original, 1 new replacement) that don't work. Anybody have even a good used one??  |

[replyingto=tvnacman]tvnacman[/replyingto]Swapped out the parts because I had them laying around. Also swapped out the battery with a larger one from my 250 scoot. Worked slightly better but still not what it should be. My first thoughts when I started this were also about the battery and wiring. Battery wires are very skimpy little things. Maybe I should try running some new battery wires and replacing the starter solenoid? Have already check grounds. Only thing left is the wiring.

Question, I'm working on a 50cc scoot that the starter drive will not stay engauged with the flywheel gear long enough to start the engine. In other words when you push the start button you hear the drive engauge the flywheel, it turns the motor about one 10th of a revolution than it spits back out and just spins outside the flywheel teeth. I have tried a new starter drive, new starter, new flywheel face plate, replaced the starter drive bushings and still the same problem. Any one else have this type of problem or have a clue?  |

Recieved an intake from an e-bay vendor today, the one alley suggested. It is the correct one at HALF the price and only a 3 day wait compaired to "scooter- losers" Thanks for the help guys! Now I need to find a good carb.....  |

My 250 had a cast intake that the carb bolted to. Since parts (jets, etc.) are hard to come by for this carb I want to change it over to the rubber clamp on type to allow a choice of carbs. Attached is a picture of what I have now. Looks like the one from e-bay that Alley listed is correct. A lot of places list one for the vog 250 style but they look like a standard GY6 150. Anyone ever change from the cast to the rubber? Attachments:

I'm looking for an intake manifold for my Linahi engine that uses a vog manifold. Ordered one from "scootertronics" but after a month of waiting and no responce to e-mails or phone calls I'm chalking them up as losers. I would be happy with a good used one. I have not found any other sites that have the correct one, most want to sell you a GY6 150 manifold.
Any ideas???
I would advise anyone to avoid "scootertronics" as they seem to have "issues"

Anyone have any idea whats going on at scootertronics??? Ordered a part over a month ago, paid for it at the time of order, recieved an e-mail stating it was to be shipped in 24 hours, never got the part, they do not return e-mails ( sent 3 to every address I could find) called and spoke with "Mike" 2 weeks ago and he said he would ship it right out, now you try calling and they don't even answer the phone OR take messages. Whats up with this place??? Another drop off the face of the earth scooter shop I take it! |

My engine is the Horizontal type. I would love to change it over to the boot type carb and wondered if anyone knew of an intake manifold that would work. Still want to know what the 2 jets are in this carb. My engine looks like this  |

My carb is the "old" bolt on stlye. Below is a picture inside the bowl showing 2 jets next to the main jet. My mixture screw is on the top and I have tried to adjust this bog out with no luck. I would think that changing the exhaust and removing the air box I should be riching it, but I'm open for sugestions. How about parts for this carb??? Anybody ever change the intake to a newer type to use a different carb?  |

Carb issues

Ok I have a question for the 250 experts. I have a 54-B that I just got back together and running after purchasing it in pieces. It came with a Dragon exhaust and intake setup in the box that I installed. Now my carb needs some reworking and I'm finding very little info and parts available for it. The carb on mine bolts (not clamps) to a alum intake pipe. most all carbs I've looked at have the boot type on the engine side. I've sort of narrowed down the bog issue I have at 1/8-1/4 throttle to pilot jet (that's what I read). Idles good, WOT is good, not great but good. but 1/8 to 1/4 it just spits and sputters. Now my question... next to the main jet is 2 small jets, which one is the pilot and should they be the same or different? Other question is where can I get parts, jets, another carb for this thing?? Any help would be great as I'm having trouble finding stuff for the 250. Thanks Attachments:

Not to change the subject but what started this problem was work on the swing arm bushings. I need to replace my swing arm bushings (motor mount bushings) on my 54B and wondered where to get replacements. I see the bushings available for 150’s but can’t find the 250’s. Any ideas?
Sorry would have started a new thread but it keep logging me out!
