All I know is the weights are stock, and when I put them in wrong when I put the belt on it made a mark in each roller. Not really sure that could be causing it or if it's because the fin on the variator fan is broke off. I am not riding it till i get my new parts next week

Well, I ordered a performance cdi and a stock variator from ebay. My cdi will be here today, idk about that variator, scrappydogg didn't ship it out till yesterday which pisses me off majorly since the holiday tomorrow and needing it by then. Also on the page he said ships out day it is paid for... paid for it saturday it should have been shipped monday.. but yeah ticked off about that....

[replyingto=steelace]steelace[/replyingto]That sucks about your Variator, bro. I've been dealing with the same kind of service from just about everywhere lately... Amazon shipping a day late, absolutelyscooters shipping days later, I just wish most of these businesses had the business ethic that Carasdad has. As soon as I paid him he had my camshaft shipped as fast as humanly (maybe robotically...) possible.
I got that spring ready to ship whenever you want, too. I live pretty close to the post office so I'll ship it as soon as possible, after I get the money to pay for the shipping of course, haha.

I am hoping tracking is delayed and it shows up today. Both items left the same area about the same time last night so who knows. I do still want that spring. Gotta sort out a few things tomorrow and I should be able to get you the payment via paypal. As you can guess I didn't get the exhaust and filter this time, bills came in lol |

What really sucks is tommorrow is july 4th and it will be the first time I am able to visit my daughter in 5 years, so if the variator isnt here today i will have to take it easy on the scoot going to town to see her.

Yeah I thought scrappydog was good on shipping. not for me he isn't. i was going to order 5 feet of 3/16 fuel hose and a fuel filter from him until i got hit with $16 shipping. lol, really? $16 to ship less than 1 pound? no thanks, haven't been back to his site. i don't know how everyone here deals with him. i guess those high shipping fees don't apply to everyone.  What really sucks is tommorrow is july 4th and it will be the first time I am able to visit my daughter in 5 years, so if the variator isnt here today i will have to take it easy on the scoot going to town to see her. oh man, forget about your scooter for one day and go have a great time with your little girl. |

Well he is one easy way to check.
If your lights only turn on when the scoot is running it is AC fired. If not it is DC. That one is for an AC fired scoot.
