So checking the tubes fixed it?

Essentially yes. A gap too small will produce a weak spark and not burn all the gas. But for the cud shown on your bike it would have to have been like that for awhile. I have a bike that hit the spark plug one time in its whole life. Why I still don't know but it never happen again. i put a second gasket on it to pull it further from the piston. The bike had shitty fuel economy around that time and ran rough. I wonder if it has something to do with the 64mm and 69mm valve difference. I didn't check the parts when I bought and put them on I use in everything, never had a problem. I actually notice a performance loss in my scooter when I use regular, when it was 39mm and when I upgraded to 50mm, but then again every setup is different

Is it possible the rings didn't seat well and are causing blow by?

Seems as if your running too rich, but then again, idk

What kind of gas are you using?

Running lean on a jet means the carb is adjusted wayyyy off or you have air leaking into the intake manifold. Check for cracks on manifold or broken vaccum tubes. Possibly a faulty egr valve if its still plugged in. If it is check that the big tube coming from the bottom of the valve cover is not kinked. Hows your oil consumption?

I got cardboard folded an wedged in between my battery and battery-case and my battery hasn't moved since. The bike even wrecked and the battery cover came off, but the battery stayed put.

I think the draw was coming from the headlights. Don't know how seeing their AC, but when I switched the stator I noticed that they would stay on constant, but so weak you could barely tell. Switched stator back and never saw them like that again.

Now your getting silly with the Pickup Coil unplugged the CDI will not get a signal to release the Voltage it built up to the coil to fire the Plug. The more you say the worse it gets and it is apparent you do not want to learn how things work you are taking it as an attack on you. Like I said just trying to help some of you guys that do know how things work learn some of the ins and outs to make fixing your scoot or someone else's scoot a good experience. Also save some money not getting the wrong part which is not causing a problem and at the same time maybe make some money on the side fixing someone scoot. Alleyoop Like I said, not arguing with you. I know how stuff works. I'm just telling you what happen. When I unplug that same wire on my new bike it cuts out immediately. Old bike it doesn't. All you can tell me is i'm wrong without an explanation.? Who said I felt attacked. Its just really annoying when you see something with your own eyes and have someone who lives soo far away try to tell you it didn't happen. And like I said before, i've learned and are still learning alot from you. And I appreciate your help, but I consider advise rather than taking it. I wish I would have taken a video back then when I was riding it like that, but then again I really don't feel like I have to prove anything. And aint gunna lie the info you contributed to my knowledge has helped me to make money on the side doing the same thing your telling me i'm wrong about. People call me and give me phone diagnosis and I come over with the parts I think it could be. Fully asses the problem and fix it within an hour. Never had one failure. I've got friends who buy like new scooters that wont start for cheap. Call me and I fix them for free because their my friends. If I weren't good for my word they wouldn't waste a dollar.

What do you think i'm lying? I put a new battery in scooter before i changed the stator. It worked flawlessly. Changed the stator and it was either dead or completely dead. Changed stator back, battery started charging back to normal state. No accessory, stock lights. I'm not going to argue about something I've experienced. Just like you told me it was impossible for my other bikle to run with the pickup unplugged and I ran it like that for days until I finally figured out the problem. I've learned a lot from you but like I said, I consider advise rather than taking it.

Just so you know the stator puts out not suck out. Your problem like I mentioned before was that your stator was not putting out 40-100VAC to the R/R which is the one that converts the VAC from the stator to DC to charge the battery. You have to know the flow and how things work to diagnose a problem correctly. With just the simple tests with a volt meter you would know which one is the culprit. You got lucky and hit the right culprit the first time it could of been your R/R and not the stator. Alleyoop Well of course I know it puts out and not sucks out, that would make no sense.. Sorry I should have wrote the seems like it was doing that, didn't think it would be taken literal. I know how things work and I don't need you implying that I don't. I didn't "Get lucky". I changed the stock stator to a new but turned out to be defective one, to see if it would generate more power. That's how I knew it was the stator. If it were a different situation i'de pull out the multimeter and figure out where the dead link is at. And if I put a freshly fully charged new battery into a scooter, dont start it and come back hour later and its dead, that means something is sucking the life out of it. I change the stator back to stock and I don't have the problem anymore. I guess next your gunna say I plugged in a color coded wire into the wrong socket and thats what caused that.

I had a bad stator that sucked juice out of the battery rather than charge. It would be full, then almost completely dead next time I try to start it. Put a diff stator on and it was like magic. The battery stayed charged and strong. Also I tried to put an electric gas pump on it and that killed me battery in the same fashion as the stator. Unplugged the pump and it was fine. I put 50w headlights in and it did the same thing. Guess the bike just can't handle the extra without stator upgrades. Anything over main jet and the bike runs rich on mine even after trying to adjust.

I would make a video and put it on youtube and post it here. Or record the sound, post it to a website and post it here.
Ive never known for a 2stroke or any engine to work with half the cycle,s so I couldn't even try to picture it.
Will it at least ride at a decent but slow speed?
I can't even help unless I hear or have the sound described to me.
So far it sound like a vacuum leak or an electric problem.
