Title: I fixed my scooter's surging problem, but I have no clue why the fix worked!
Post by: AgilityOnAnRV on June 02, 2012, 12:39:04 AM

After doing and testing everything on the planet in hopes of solving the problem of my scooter surging / lurching around 50 mph I finally decided to try (re)replacing my new carb diaphragm with the old one. Voila, problem solved. I just cruised down a frontage road at 60 mph with no sign of surging.

I'm glad that the problem is solved, but what the heck? Can anyone explain?

Thanks!

Oh, and this totally makes me think that some shops have no clue what they're doing. I was just at the point where I was going to turn over diagnostics to a shop and when I spoke with someone just yesterday they said that it's definitely in need of a carb cleaning and that it would be around $130.

Yeah, that would have helped... empty my wallet.
