The way that turns over slow reminds me of the chain tensioner putting way too much pressure on the chain-- which will make it very hard to turn over when improperly installed. Not sure you would've been able to ride it though, like you said you did. Did you take the spring out of the tensioner? Something about that wiring though.... plus that battery seems weak. Maybe check under the taping or maybe some wires are corroded....etc. The spring and the little pin is still in there |

Yep, if it clicks and you then jump the terminals and it spins the starter the solenoid is bad period. But if you don't test then you can replace and or take stuff apart that is not bad. Also to test the starter just jump it directly with the scoot battery or another outside source battery. So before you take anything apart test it first very easy to do before you tear into anything. If you do not know how just open a thread and ask. Alleyoop Scoot won't fire: |

There was a part of the thin ground wire that was taped that had came loose so I retaped it and it turns over again. The kick start lever and gears should be here soon. |

Seeing as we have gone through a lot and still will not start. At this point I suspect it may be out of time. So take off the valve cover line up the cam sprocket with the TWO little holes even with the head. And then Take a Picture of it aligned so we can see that your doing it correct and no questions asked THEN move down to the Flywheel and take a Picture of the Flywheel and where the timing mark on the case is pointing to on the flywheel. Other than that at this point I cannot thing of anything else that we have not gone through. Alleyoop like these pictures:     |

HAHAHA, I sure hope so too and get that thing to fire. All it is doing is just a single click from the starter solenoid when I press the starter button. When I left the garage I put it on a float charger. Hopefully its just a dead battery. |

Wow!! Ok do this to at least ground the motor to the frame. Take that THICK green wire that is connected to the Bolt on the Valve cover take the other END and find a BOLT on the frame and connect it there. Then Find Follow the Wire from the NEGATIVE POST on the battery and also go to the same spot on the FRAME as the THICK GREEN from the motor. That at least will give you good ground to both and anything. On a scoot normally the STOP LIGHT wire is GREEN and YELLOW as is the wire going to the SOLENOID. All green wires are all GROUND WIRES on 99% percent of the scoots some of the OLD scoots used BLACK as ground but the CHINO scoots all use GREEN for ground. Alleyoop OK I getting ready to go to the garage. I will do that with the wire. I'll take pictures of the can shaft And the fly wheel. I feel like were getting close to something  . |

The other thin green wire you see in the picture above is taped to another green wire that runs up the front of the scoot and is connected to the yellow and green wire

The other negative green wire is connected to a blue wire that runs up the front of the scoot.  |

Its weird I didn't find ground wires connected to a bolt on the frame. The thick green wire from the valve cover goes straight to the battery. The thin green wire just goes on into the wire harness, I didnt trace it all the way down I was in a hurry. The red positive wire is taped onto the blue wire that is connected to the red and yellow wire I posted earlier.   I also found two connectors that are just sitting not connected to any thing.   This one ^ looks like it is missing a wire |

This is the first time I've checked the forum today. I did get some pics of the wires today. I'm pretty confused about it. |

The last time it started, was that before or after you took the head and cylinder off? What are your valves set at? It was asked earlier, but I don't see a reply anywhere. As for the kickstarting, it's almost always easier to start with electric-- unless it's freezing and your battery has no juice. It started after. The valves are at .003 on both. |
