One thing that will make it easier on this scooter is it's a linhai with a good charging system with a Dc type CDI so you want have to convert from Ac to Dc on that part and it should go a lot easier.

I looked at that but I'm not sure as to what size cable to get. Where would I find that out?

if you are talking about your throttle cable then you should be able to use the one already on your bike

Matt at Ecotrons will give you advice.
Just send him an email and he'll help you.
The support from Ecotrons is outstanding!
The 34mm throttle body has idle control via the ECU and I think that can be a great advantage
I have that system on my 150cc GY6 and I love it!

I have a 24mm throttle body on a 72cc engine. I was one of the first to try efi on a 139qmb engine. Matt at ecotrons was extremely helpful.

I got mine from Ecotrons also, I asked Matt questions first, and he replied very quickly. Hope we have some warms weather so I can get mine installed!

The install isn't difficult, just follow the manual. I changed a few light bulbs to LED and I haven't had any problems at all with the stator not being able to produce enough power... Here's som pictures from my install: scooterdoctors.egetforum.se/guide-inkoppling-av-ecotrons-efi-insprutn-till-gy6-motorer-t1470.htmlSorry, but the text is in Swedish..., (just run it through google translate and you'll get most of it)Some of the wires on the harness I would like to be a little longer. I extended the cables to the battery, the control lamp, performance switch, ignition coil and CKP cable. If you place an order I would recomend that you order an extra holder for the lambda sensor. It might come in handy if you replace/change the exhaust after a while... |

I cheated and found a local dealer who took my old bike in trade on a high compression Italian 250 designed from the ground up as a fuel injected bike. Sometimes that will cost less than tinkering with converting a low compression bike to EFI. Most bikes designed for fuel injection have a stator that puts out 300 to 500 watts which is needed to run the injection pump and consistently fire the fuel injector. Plus it was guaranteed to work right the first time I rode it and had the backing of a dealer network of factory trained mechanics here in the US and most of the world.

Well Yea Rockynv, Spending a bunch of $ is always the way to go rather than working for a result  . That was no mistery . This info was for guys/gals that can't just go buy an Italian EFI scooter. Everybody knows that solution. D8 |
