People 50 / Throttle valve not sliding in carb
« on: April 29, 2011, 02:49:21 AM »
The throttle valve is not sliding in the carb after I cleaned it. It is not seating all the way down like it should. Should I change the valve or the carb?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

People 50 / HELP!? -- '03 People 50 Carburetor/throttle
« on: April 20, 2011, 01:18:52 PM »
Hello everyone. I'm new here to the Kymco forums but have had a 2003 People 50 for a couple of years now. I've really been having problems with getting it started. It would take me about 30-45 minutes to get it started, but once I did it would run smooth. Since the weather is getting nicer I decided to clean the carburetor to see if I could get it to start better. Well, now it won't start at all pretty much. I've gone and adjusted the pilot jet, the air valve, idle everything I can think of and did get it to start. However, the thing is running wide open. I think I may need to tighten up the pilot jet a bit and close the air a bit too, but one thing I noticed is that when I try to throttle up with the handle, I get no response. I think the throttle valve is sticking in the carburetor and not moving because I can get a response by moving the needle inside the carburetor with needle-nose pliers. I don't have much experience with carburetors so I feel really lost as to what the problem is. I also know that the throttle cable is not broken because it will contract when I take it out of the carb. This is really driving me crazy so if anyone could give me some advice I would greatly appreciate it.
