  • In this video, we will review the process of upgrading the carburetor on a royal Alloy GT 150 to a 26 mm version that I purchased on Amazon. This is a $24-$26 carburetor, and really wakes the scooter up improving ride ability and overall performance of the scoot.
    This is a direct, drop in replacement. While it does require a bit of work, the process is not difficult and does not need to be as scary as you may think.
    Tools Required:
    12 mm wrench
    7mm Socket
    Philips Screwdriver
    Flathead Screwdriver
    Pliers
    Zip Ties
    Rags
    Wire Cutter for Zip Ties

    I followed your instructions and successfully swapped out my GT150 factory carb with a Glixal 26mm carb. Thank you!

    I just swapped the carb, hooked everything back up the way it was. Now the scooter doesn't start

      It sounds silly but you've confirmed your kickstand isn't down, and that your kill switch is in the correct orientation? If all you did was take the carburetor off and put the carburetor back on should be pretty much ready to go. But we would need more information to diagnose. For example, is it trying to crank? Does your throttle work?

    What's your elevation level where you live for jet comparison?

    Will the GT-150 Start in cold weather? Say below freezing.

    Hey my friend, I did the glixal 26 115/38 and the same pm tuning exhaust as you. Have a NCY transmission kit and cdi as well.
    My issue is that once I put the exhaust on after a few runs with the new carb and jets where it was absolutely RIPPING- it got REALLY sloggy. Performance is almost back to stock 😩. Maybe running too rich? With the pm exhaust it smells like fumes constantly now.
    Any ideas how to unlock the performance? Need help!!

      @@freewayRode replaced all the lines already…
      Have to note, It’s also had this weird “power dumping” effect pre upgrades. At full throttle the fuel delivery or something gets messed up suddenly (riding over bumps set it off initially) and bogs everything down. It’s limiting top speed to about 42mph gps and the whole thing lurches constantly.
      Replaced vacuum lines, spark plug boot, and then did the glixal carb in hopes of fixing it.
      It’s gone away at top end of throttle but same issue is suddenly present at steady throttle at 5000 rpm. Lurches and can’t seem to hold a steady speed. If I throttle up it smoothes out. That on top of the loss of performance gains that I saw momentarily with the glixal before installing the pm exhaust.
      Any idea? Stater? Throttle cable? Running Too rich?

      Could be fuelling, you could try turning down the main jet a size. If it was happening before it could be the CDI going bad or having a loose connection. Bumps would lend a degree of credence to at least check it out

    Do you wish that this bike was fuel injected? Or is the tunable carb a good thing?

    • @freewayRode
      @freewayRode  Рік тому

      If prefer if it was fuel injected, that's always a big selling point to me. Carbs can be tuned and that works, but I'm new school enough to prefer fuel injection. I know it can be expensive to repair, but that's just me.

    I did the 26mm upgrade but when i turn the fuel and air screw in where it seats it keeps running doesn't cut out doesn't seem right

      If you back it all the way out does it start to run funny? If it's all way in, is it running differently than when it's part way in?
