My kitted 2003 People is dead (electrical)!
« on: August 03, 2010, 05:35:22 AM »
  Been have some trouble with this one lately. Crapping out at high revs thought it was my jetting and a sputter after multiple jet settings got worse to the point i just limped it home,sat for an hour and dead no spark.
  Checked plug, checked fuse,checked kill switch and wires to ignition,swapped with known working coil, cdi and no luck. Got to pull the rest of the tupperwear to see any further for wires from the stater and coil any thoughts, if stater(alternater,magnito   ???  ) is bad are there any easy tests (electrical is not my strong point!)   ;D  .  Oh well thanks for any help catch ya all later.

  Well I bit the bullet today and replaced the stater after testing all wires and components it was the only thing left and could not find a way to test it alone.
  Now i have spark! But still no start up Ha! While i had it all tore down I cut my self some new reeds and have a feeling the glue was a bit tacky when i put it back together no vacume now(I hope!)  ;D
   To beat up to tear it down this evening ,maybe tomorrow. Had a blast chasing parts on the s200. Local shop lent me the the flywheel puller (Awsome shop) Sargent's motor sports, would love to see them get the right to sale Kymco's in there. Oh well tomorrow it's miller time now  ;D  :D  ;)

  Damn!!! It's alive again,Had loads of fun  :P  Got stator all in and go to fire it and It's trying to start the motor in reverse  ???  Oposite of the the starter rotation "Great!" Ha! 
   I knew from my dirt bike days the old motors would run backword if you pushed that direction or rolled down a hill backword(no fun if you hit the gas at that point thinking you will be going forward!)
   After scratching my head all day decided it was a timing thing and it was. The stator i bought was a gy6 (generic) that did not fit exactly,the coil was fine but the pick up for the pulser? did not fit well so i reemed it out a bit to fit the bolt holes And that little bit off changed the timing so I ripped the pickup out of the old one,wired it in and I'm back to one kick  ;D  ;D  ;D  Still not all together but it runns.
    While i was there did some more changes I'll post later.  ;)

 Yep  noticed the 19mm carb and stock intake + gasket nowhere near the same size may have been part of my cold start problems. I did not see anything i could do to the reed side.
