What voltage should it read? at the headlight socket and the regulator? Going to do a PDI over the winter, starting soon and hopefully can catch any other "problem" that the scoot could have.

So now I have a headlight problem. After we got it running the headlight blew out. Replaced the bulb and wiring harness. Still blew out and now the harness is charred. Got a new one and a 3rd bulb blew out. This harness is still like new tho. What could be causing this. I chased all the wiring and looks to be OK. Anyone know what gives?

Will have to check that out. If the starter taken off and allowed to drain and dry, would it work again?

Brand new battery. Maybe the starter?

So I have a Taotao 50cc air cooled bike. The trouble is that when you try to start it with the electric starter it will take quite awhile to get it going but you can kick start it without any problems. Almost as if the petcock needs to fill up to supply the carb. But what gives if you kick start it? Starts every time while kicking.
