1 Answers
The adjustment method for the carburetor of a scooter motorcycle involves locating a cross-shaped screw under the seat and adjusting it. Below are the detailed maintenance methods for the scooter motorcycle carburetor: 1. No fuel in the carburetor float chamber: Open the carburetor float chamber and check whether the inlet needle valve moves downward as the float descends. If the needle valve does not move with the float and remains tightly sealed with the valve seat, it can be concluded that the inlet passage is blocked due to adhesion between the needle valve and the valve seat. This issue is usually caused by gasoline gum coagulating between the needle valve and the valve seat. It can be cleaned with alcohol or acetone. This type of malfunction often occurs in motorcycles that have not been used for a long time. 2. Failure of the starting enrichment device: If the PTC heating element in the enrichment valve is damaged, the entire enrichment valve assembly needs to be replaced.
