Possibilities is endless.

 

But usually it's the fuel delivery and ignitions system that is causing problems.

 

These are the possibilities and u have to do the check list.

 

Battery low charge. check batt voltage and batt water level. Should read min 13V.

 

Spark plug worn out. Check condition and change if necessary.

 

Spark plug foul. Check whether carbon foul or oil foul.

carbon foul. Too rich. Oil foul, for 2T bikes, it's too much 2T.

 

Starter motor worn. check and replace is necessary.

 

Fuel line clogged or crack clean or replace if necessary.

 

Carb dirty, clean and service.

 

Check for any carb leaks or manifore leaks. Repair or replace as necessary.

 

Reeve valve may be worn. Change if necessary.

 

Autochoke clogged or worn. Service and replace if necessary.

 

Not easy but you have to check out one by one.

 

You might like to check the easiest one first, like the batt.

Hi Xue.

 

Try a simple way of changing your spark plugs first see how. Maybe it's just faulty or fouled..

What plug are you using? ....Champion?

I once have difficulties firing up my scoot after ban hock hin changed to a champion plug some time ago liao.

Currently using Ngk's BR8ES for my skipper, no probs running and so far so good .

 

~cheers.

Your hard to start is must press the starter very long time before it starts?

Maybe its the starter motor or autochoke lor

ya lor.. press v long, must continuously .. till the engines SLOWLY starts .. but cannot on throttle, once on, the engine will die.. must let the engine warm up itself. .
