Re: Bad scooter!!

This may have already been part of your "diagnosis", but is there any chance you bought bad fuel? Or maybe that the fuel is old?

Re: Bad scooter!!

Have you tried pouring a little pre-mix gas directly in the cylinder to see if if fires? If it does then dies, you're not getting enough fuel through the carb. If it still doesn't, your spark is too weak which could be caused by a bad ignition module/transducer or bad/mis-adjusted points if no electronic ignition.
