Thanks for the video. Clear and concise! I just bought my first scooter and trying to learn as much about maintenance on it as possible. But they just had to put the spark plug in the most difficult spot😂😂!! I like the raised white letter tires you got too.
No problem I’m glad it could help, these little scoots aren’t hard to work on or even modify and upgrade, just gotta learn how first and then it becomes second nature
No problem man, I wanted to make a easy to understand, clear Video with every single detail that you need from start to finish on how to change your oil and spark plug so you don’t have to have your shop to do something so simple yet very important
I been subscribed for awhile now only cause I have a 2016 taotao with an 80cc big bore kit so you are one of my go to UA-camrs on how to service it I appreciate the detail within the videos much love from Indianapolis 💪
That makes me so happy I am more than glad that I could be of service and help while also entertaining sometimes, That was my original goal for this channel and always will be I’m sorry about the lack of content lately, it is simply winter time here where I live rn And both of my bikes are shut down until spring but as soon as spring reason hits I will be right back In action 👌
@@davidhofinger4927 it's winter here too so I completely understand bro lol but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't ready for more ride along videos Michigan looks alot like indiana

I’m glad that I could this makes me very happy a lot of the videos I make are to help educate the Scooter community so you can do this stuff yourself Mission accomplished with this video
Say, my man, that was very well done. I really appreciate that tutorial. I just had my spark plug done today, hopefully, I can do it myself next time. Maybe you can give me a tip on how to clean gunk out of a carburetor(gy6) without removing it from the bike? Thanks so much 👍✌!
Nope lol Not really, We would still have to take it off of the bike, open it up and clean it out, honest but it’s not that big of a job at all Disconnect your fuel line, Disconnect the carburetor drain hose, You don’t have to touch the throttle cable keep it on. Pop off the intake with a Phillips, head screwdriver, and a flat head And loosen up the intake clamp And pull that sucker off and clean it out. There are three screws on the bottom of the carburetor on it, flipped it upside down, take those three screws out, and then gently wiggle the float bowl off and you will see your fuel jets, and those things come out with a flat head screwdriver. I know that through a comment it’s not showing you how to do this, but it is as simple as that you’re not gonna break anything just make sure you plug the fuel line back onto the fuel Inlet, Put the drain hose back on the float bowl drain nozzle, Tighten everything back up. I don’t see anybody being able to clean it properly with keeping it on the bike. I have not done it that way before or seen it done.
If you slip a short length of rubber hose over the spark plug ceramic, you can use it to get the plug started in the hole. If you put a little never-seize on the spark plug threads, the plug won't corrode into the hole.
Once I change out the pads on either one of my bikes I will happily do so I already planned on doing that come spring, Also bleeding the brakes the process of that 👌 Thank you for your feedback I appreciate that I try to make my how to videos clear and easily understood
Nice video! Is it ok to use Mobil 1 10-40 synthetic? My icebear rocket has 350 miles, and that’s what I used for first oil change. A video I watched recommended it.
Use an ncy breather hose David... It relieves the crankcases pressure and will extend your engines life Also grab a trail tech tachometer/hr meter so u can know your rpm... It's literally winding a small cord around your sparkplug boot and electrical tape. Battery is said to last 3-5 years as well

Nah, It’s not the biggest deal they would only be a little bit of oil left in there but if it was my bike I would get new oil make sure to tip all of the old oil out and replace it.

Just out of curiosity, how often do you change your gear oil? I'm getting ready to do a complete fluid swap on my bike, so this was really helpful thanks!
Gear oil is once per season that is the strongest most durable fluid in your bike. So next year after coming out of hibernation you fill your gear oil and you don’t have to worry about it until you drain the fluids
@@davidhofinger4927 Yeah, i'm gonna go ahead and do it now because i'll most likely be riding for most of the winter as well (especially if it's like last winter where it didn't happen till march lol)

Yes, Temperature of the season.

you want to give your Scooter fresh spark when you change your oil spark plugs don’t last forever Homie lol It can cause your scooter to sputter and not run efficiently because the spark isn’t traveling quickly and strongly Not so much on four strokes but it’s just a good thing to do because carbon builds up on the spark plug and restricts the spark from sparking it’s just an easy and good thing to do
Mine either. 2 strokes don’t take motor oil I hope you know that lol 2t’s gas and oil is mixed together in the cylinder either by a pre-mix conversion (the safest) or a separate oil pump that’s connected to the throttle cable
@@lloydsplace2 it’s not made to be interesting. It’s made to be informational. And now I was able to help quite a lot of people to do it on their own instead of paying someone to do it. everybody can for their own tactic afterwards
Almost a professional! ( Not cynical) .. but soon as you made a funnel & started pouring oil holding jug upsidedown it became evident.., ROOKIE …TIP=Hold qt. Or any jug with offset cap , cap side up. You will very rarely ever need a funnel again . Nice job on video though really.

Definitely not a rookie here just do things back yard style oh well
You don’t screw it in to check it read your manual to get the proper amount of oil you just put the stick in and pull out to check
It doesn’t just slide in it’s a threaded pattern go ahead and try to force the threads against each other and you’re no longer have a dipstick that stays in its position lol
@@davidhofinger4927 I know what it does I have a Kymco to properly check the oil level is to insert the dip stick till it stops at the block then pull it out to check your manual says it mine says it
@@marcnissen578 I know that’s an inaccurate way of doing it because there’s still room to go when you screw it down and you’re not getting a fully accurate reading, I don’t read the manual to know how to work on my bike lol
So do we screw it in or just dip it on the top thread to get an accurate reading on the taotao50?
@@markn2393 If you want the most accurate reading screw it all the way in, I would not just dip it you’re gonna be off by a little bit
The spark plug gap?
We didnt see you calibrate and you also didnt mention it?🤔
Just use an NGK 4629 spark plug for a gy6 50cc motor
No gap needed, stock gap works perfect as is brother
