Title: Agility 125 Intake Manifold Clamp | Running Rough
Post by: skadamo on January 05, 2008, 05:37:32 AM

Another great post by Kymcojones.  Seems he was having some carb issues and it turned out to be a clamp on the intake manifold..

As James explained it, there's a little trick with a clamp on the intake manifold, and he and Mike concluded that there may be a design issue on this model that might prompt a dealer service bulletin, or some such. Apparently, the clamp is designed in such a way that it can be tightened with its screw, and feel really tight, but it's actually not tightening the intake hose against the intake -- it's tightening up against itself, leaving the hose loose enough to cause the rough idle/high idle/no starting issues. Once they got the clamp adjusted correctly, and tightened correctly, the scooter fired right up, and ran like melted buttah.

Wanted to catch up -- another person was having similar symptoms with his Agility, so I took a shot of the shop manual, w/highlights to explain how James and the guy from Kymco got me fixed up:

I'm guessing this is one of the times that using spray starting fluid (ether?) would be helpful, if there's any doubt.

Thanks,
