Title: People 150 - won't stay running
Post by: oldgowfer on August 12, 2009, 02:31:48 AM

Just turned 5000km. The scooter will start fine and runs until you let go of the throttle grip and just dies. It restarts easy enough but just will not sit there at idle and run. Would anyone have a suggestion about where to look first. I would really appreciate any input. Ciao. Old Gowfer

Start w/ the basics, New fuel, and filter. Change the spark plug, and check that the choke is working. Sometimes the electric choke will hang, and not fully release, causing a flooding condition. Last clean the air box, and get a new filter element. These are all inexpensive parts
