Re: Elite 50 HELP

Yes, I've done both a cap off and taped a funnel directly to the gas line with the same result. Also has a new fuel filter.

Re: Elite 50 HELP

Also no leaks/cracks in manifold or air box. I've done this about 30+ times with the same result. run at full throttle runs and sounds good and then it is running out of gas as it dies consistenly. Old carb worked just fine before last year at the beginning of the year had a bad battery so replaced ...

Re: Elite 50 HELP

Ok, pulled the bowl and removed the jet. no numbers indicate it's size. on top of that, I pulled the stock carb and again no number. I don't believe the issue is the carb as the problem was the exact same after replacing with a brand new carb. The scooter does not sputter it just dies and if I keep ...

Re: Elite 50 HELP

Re: Elite 50 HELP

thanks for the reply.. I will have to do some research on the bystarter.. never heard of it. Oil and gas are new and just incase I even mixed the tank gas with top amsoil dominator as well. it might take me a week or so now to get to but I will reply with what I find after I perform these details.

Re: Elite 50 HELP

THANKS FOR THE QUICK RESPONSE... No on the air filter. It is new as well. what I can say is that it is very difficult to start but once started it turns over ok. I have to kick start it to get the fuel going. I took the fairings off today and the engine shroud. After doing this I tightened down the ...

I'm fairly confident it is running lean and not getting enough fuel. It also takes forever to start when cold. This i...
