I actually went to autozone, and for 3 or 4 bucks you can get a new in line fuse box that will take the new style little square fuses. works great and much easier to find if something happens while ur out, most gas stations carry them. easy fix to the finicy glass buss fuses. Just saying.

I think i'm haveing an issue with my CDI so i'm going to replace the stock one with a high performace model. I talked to a local scoot machanic and he said some people are haveing issues with them. I recently puchased the high perfomace ignition coil( the orange one not sure what brand.) Question is has anybody had problems with the matchin CDI (orange)

OK guy's, here is my update. I replaced the ignition coil to the commonly found orange performance model, It started and ran great, and I drove it 12 miles yesterday. However after I turn it off it wont start til after 20 or 30 min of cooling. I have replaced everthing electrical but the CDI so i'm getting pretty close. My buddy believes that the CDI is the last piece of the puzzle. He says that after it heats up it malfunction's when you try an start it again, and that once it cool's it function's properly. Make any sense? Anyone have knowledge?

I had the same thing going on with my carb. I did end up getting a new one, but it doesnt hurt to try the intake manifold gasket, if its cracked or has a bad o ring it could alow air to enter along with the air it already pulls through the carb and it doesn't allow the proper ignition between the gas and spark. Just a cheap fix if that is the problem. My scoot however is still not working right, but found my intake gasket in 6 pieces replaced it and got it running better than before, even better after the new carb.

I did take off the Tank and drain it last night. Im not sure how old it was. smelled ok, but that doesnt mean anything I suppose. I cleaned the carb that came on it before I bought the new one and got the same action out of the new as the one that was "Dirty". However I pulled the diaphram cover while I had the old carb on and when I took the diaphram and pin out it ran wonderful once it got all that air straight to the carb. I did however realize that you cant drive it with it like that. Just an observation. I think the coil might not have the proper spark going to the plug. When I pull the plug and ground it out it just doesnt seem to have any emphhhh to it. Could that be a good thing to replace? Or am I way off?

It says 1682 miles, but not sure if thats correct. the speedo doesnt work so prob. not. when I put the new carb on it, it started right up after getting the gas to the carb, and ran like a raped ape. It reved up fine and idled great, which it had not done before the new carb. I turned it off and cranked it again and it did what it did when I got it. which was starting only when holding throttle all the way down, even then it just chugged at low rpm's with no response in the throttle and had to keep throttle all the way down to keep it running, when let off it stals right out.

Hi all, I have a standard issue 139mb. I have been working on it for over a week. Guy I bought it from said the carb was bad. I cleaned the carb, over and over again, would start after that but no throttle controle at all and wouldn't idle. I broke down and got a new carb. I hooked it up and it fired right up and idled and ran fine. I turned it off to start again to make sure i was ready for a scoot and it started but had the same problem as before. Ive checked the spark as well as all the wireing, seems fine. is there something im missing. it seems like ive determined everthing mechanicly is working. electricly im not sure. is there something electricly that would cause it to not want to idle, and have no throttle control(when it does run it just chugs at a low rpm and will not throttle up) batt is new as well. uuuurrrgggghhhh!
