[@IanMitchell-ek1ve]

Thank you thank you thank you.A friend gave me his Kymco for nothing as it would not tick-over,it would start and run with difficulty,I followed your video step by step and behold it now works a dream.....thank you.

[@Stevenbwallace1304]

Thank you so much. Our Kymco People would not run after sitting all winter. I followed this exactly and it now runs great! Ours is 2002 and very slightly different but I watched this video and was able to fix it perfectly!!

Thank you very much for posting, great video, just what I needed to know!!!

[@EternityUlf]

Thank you! I have never done this before, so this video was all I needed and all went well👍

Thanks I was able to clean the carburetor on my kymco super 8 50cc 2013 with your instructions. The parts and assembly is near identical.

Hey I have exact scooter year n all. I have cleaned my carburator multiple times. I've got spark I've got fuel and I'm almost positive I have air. It's hard to start n once it starts I t stalls n I'm back at trying to get it started.. anything you may think of by chance? Only thing in carburator I did notice after multiple cleans is the fact that there is no O RING in the float bowl seat valve. I truly don't know if it's ever had one. It ran all year I've had it. And the only time valve was removed is when I noticed no O RING so it's not like I may of lost it when cleaning it. Plz help

@@kailynnmcguire2354 mine also had an electrical problem with the switch that shots off the motor and it would make it loose spark and stall when I hit a bump on the road. I had to change the switch for a new one.

[@lboogiesmith483]

Do you have any recommendations for a upgrade carburetor for this scooter?!?

[@2012focusse]

Where can I find the tool you were using to clean the jets?

[@raymondbetancourt6498]

Besides eBay and Amazon who sells parts for these bikes 09 Kymco sting looks exactly alike besides those tall wheels...?

[@zoonk5525]

what kind of spark plug is in this engine

[@johnnovie3168]

I have Kymco 2006 152 is the cleaning the same on tht????

[@luisbaez1106]

Please help!! I’m trying to put the idle back into the carburetor but the whole thing stay at top and won’t go down so when I start the scooter it idle very high and the tire is spinning very fast I line up the the silver thing into the hole but the middle part won’t go down? Any suggestion??? I really need your help

[@LELO2780]

Did you figure out what it was? My bike is having the same exact problem! Please help

[@Hustler_state]

Did you make sure you installed the carburator slide properly? If you didn't line it up properly the slide will be stuck wide open. The carb will fit back together qith the slide installed incorrectly. Just look in the carb and see if the slide is all the way up and you'll know you have to take the top cap off and turn the slide until the needle is in the hole and slide is dropped into place.

[@johnlindsay3647]

Could be just the gas cap leaking air causing it to suck more fuel

[@danielfarmer2026]

I could not even hear half of what you are saying because of all of the wind🙁

[@RollingWrench]

Yaaa… I wish things went a little different :-(

[@rubyjams934]

[@RollingWrench]

[@RollingWrench]

[@MacStrengthCo]

@@RollingWrench glad you did. it's very helpful but unfortunately mine didn't come back to life. ha ha.. ordering a new carb now.

[@josephbiddle4607]

I’m going by visual because the sound quality is really bad (low)
