I apologize in advance if this information is posted elsewhere, but I haven't been able to find it as of yet. I've tried searching online for a diagram or layout of the 139QMB engine parts and keep coming up short however I change the phrase. So with that, my question is if anyone knows the engine mount bushing size(s) for this engine? I was able to find the suggestion that was made on the old forum as to how to get them out so I will definitely be using that technique.
My motivation behind changing them is that when ever I lean into a turn (usually a right turn), I can hear the tire rubbing against the suspension. I've already checked for free-play on the spindle and come up clean and have checked the tires normal spin pattern and found that not to be problematic either. I will admit that most parts that I haven't upgraded or changed on this scooter are roughly 10 years old so they are being changed out regardless.
But, back to the original questions topic. When I checked the engine mount bushing on the left side it was indeed dry, cracked and in need of replacement.
