Why Does my scooter keep dieng and wont start sometimes?


Hey guys.. i just got this bike yesterday its a sachs madass 50cc with an upgraded 70cc bore kit. When i test drove it everything was great. i brought it home last night and started it and it started and i drove around my parking lot fine. Couple hours later i went out at night to start it and it would not start tried for like 20 minutes... (could of been cause it was cold but i kept letting it idle then it would just die) so this morning i go to start it and boom starts up perfect and im off.. so just now i go out to start it and nothin... i try choking it for like 30-45 seconds and then let go and i try givin it gas and it sound like crap and stuff and it just shuts off... would it be the oil or what? i havent checked the oil i dont know how ive never had a bike.. or what would it be? Thanks guys.

May have had trash in the fuel that setteld in the carb & screwed it up --may be flooded--How does the plug look if wet flooded --if dry choke it--still doesnt start clean fuel system --Carb--Filter --May be filter in the tank on the petcock

Oh boy. Is it a 2-stroke or 4-stroke engine? If it's a 2-stroke engine, the oil is mixed with the gas. If it's a 4-stroke, there will be a threaded cap with a dipstick attached. It sure sounds like a seized engine. Sorry, but that means it's toast.

Have you looked at the oil,or the engine of your scooter.

    CA requires combustion engines to pass emissions regulations. Pep boys probably had to quit selling them due to that. Probably find them at a swap meet or such.
