Ok so after writing off my third 125 I had to settle for a second hand 49cc chinese scooter, a TGB 202 Classic... So I went to look at where the oil goes in, I'm used to the 125cc bikes where its obvious n you just unscrew the little cap n top it up, but there isn't one so I googled and saw stuff about mixing your oil in with your fuel in a certain ration? I know NOTHING about this So I rang my friend who is a motorcyle mechanic and he said he hadnt really worked on 49cc and only knew some you had to mix it and some you didnt... So please help guys 1. how do I know if my scooter needs the oil mixing with the fuel? 2. how do I know what the ratio is if you do have to mix it? 3. How do you mix it?

pictures, model name and number... Lots of people on here with all the right answers, but more information on what you actually have is a huge help.

[replyingto=jeepsteve92xj]jeepsteve92xj[/replyingto] It is a TGB (Taiwan Golden Bee) 202 Classic from 2011, 49cc, electric start (the kick start doesnt work) I bought it second hand at the weekend and had problems starting it, so gave it a good charge and it seems much better but now I'm panicking about this oil/fuel and what I'm meant to be doing?? Any help is really appreciated

Picture is a little blurry but, most newer (like yours) 2 strokes aren't pre-mix but oil injected. You will have 2 tanks one for fuel and one for oil. Your picture looks like a 4 stroke (no mixing) engine a picture under the seat or where the exhaust pipe meets the engine would help us be certain. (and hold that camera nice and still...)

Thanks guys! This is how stupid I am...having only ever had 125 scooters that were water cooled, I thought that tank under the seat was for coolant! but guess thats for oil! I'll look tomorrow when its light, thank you all for your help, theres one other issue I need to check with people that know much more than me, but need to take pics to show you
