Maintenance Help For A Noob - Adly Thunderbike 50  By  djb6 (Read 4,999 times)

That was so helpful! I've tried a few other sites where posters haven't been very kind. I'll check those things out. Quick question to get started. The engine seems to be under the seat... And there is a seat there. How do I get to it? Can I just unscrew all the Phillips screw's on the plastic frame?

Alley's got you on the right track...these scooters are fun and addictive to ride and work on,,pretty simple as well

I read the manual posted. Thanks! Looks like you do change engine oil. I want to make sure I understand this.

Are there three places oil is used?
1. Gear oil - This needs to be changed.
2. Engine oil - This needs to be changed.
3. Oil that gets mixed - This gets burnt off so I just keep it filled.

Is that correct?

just make sure you keep that oil botttle stays full. there should be a dash light that comes on, if your 2-stroke injector oil, called oil, bottle. gets low. there is a light on the dash, called oil, should be. itll light up if your low on 2stroke oil. suppsed to be. and supposed to work. the 2stroke oil mixes with a gear pump. you should have a split throttle cable but i dont know for sure, that pulls, as you pull the throttle cable. if not, just make sure its wired full open. yuo can findthat stuff in the manual. just dont let that bottle get empty.

well. the service manual should have a procedure.

mines like this. sort of. i done mine when i changed oil brands. i heard to.

change out the lines and bottle all the oil in all of them. pull your line off the oil fill bottle. it should also have a screen in it. take it off and blow it out backwards with compressed air or somethign to get it uncloggged. take you oil bottle, empty it into something. take the oil lines off. they should, be a line that runs from the tank to the pump. the pump runs off the crankshaft, and turns and pumps oil, that goes to it from the tank, to the carb, and mixes in the carb with gas. take off the 2 lines coming from the pump. one goes to the tank and the other one goes to the carb.

drain them. and your tank. then hold the line in a U shape. and fill it, with a small, funnel, or a tip. like, weedeaters that come with a fill bottle that has like a funnel with a cap thing on it, that screws on to a bottle. fill, the hose bent like a U shape, on both sides, to the top. Put the bottom part, the gear side with the clip already on, first, on first. then the other side, to the oil bottle, to the carb, on next. carb first, since its lower. if yours, is lower. i dont have an adly. so. ..
make sure its clipped back up with the clip lines, fill your fill bottle then. with your new oil. also run around half a gallon of new oil with around 3/4, ounce of oil in it. thats, like 1.5 ounces to a gallong. which is like an 80:1 mix. so your first half gallon will be oilly. just sort of burn that gallon off. let the air get out of the lines and stuff.

tahts the instructions with my bike. mines a gear pump. and yours should be too. yours should come with a manual. just sort of burn out the first half gallon to get any air bubbles out of the lines out of, it. thats it. should do it.

and use injector oil. that will work with an injector. not weedeater oil. dont go fast on the first half gallon or around 15 miles. letting that oil burn through the line.
