Slow Starter Cranking / Scooter Fix / Bendix /PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION UPDATE Tao Tao Evo

- Slow cranking on Chinese scooter. Checking the bendix and making sure it is in good condition. I will replace it as soon as possible since it endured some damage by being stuck on the flywheel for one week. Must have overheated many times.
UPDATE: Please, always start with the battery. After changing the starter and bendix gear, I still had starting issues. I checked the battery, and turned out my battery charger only gave out 11.5 volts! All this time, even after 'charging' the battery, I have been at below 12 volts. When I switched my charger from 2 AMP to 6 AMP charging, it brought my battery to 13.3 V. The bike starts great. I don't regret replacing the starter and bendix, they were 'tired'. I do regret trusting my charger and the battery charge too much, and not checking the first thing first. Good luck!
UPDATE 2: The lithium-ion battery in my scooter stopped working because I was charging it with a regular charger for lead-acid batteries. Be careful, you can damage the battery by doing so. I ordered a charger for Li-Ion battery and will try to save (discharge and recharge) the old battery. I am currently using another Li-Ion battery and the starting system works better than ever. - Розваги
Bro... Ur the man!! I was in the process in ordering a whole new crankshaft assembly, because i couldnt figure out the issue. I have the same bike and issue lol!
Thank you! This was my exact issue. No matter how big battery I tried. It didn't work. Even large car battery directly to starter. But after I cleaned the Bendix and lubed it up, it's working great again!
Thanks alot
what lube did you use and where did you apply
What is that rattling sound on startup? Bendix?
Thank you. Is it possible to wear out the pulley gear teeth? I replaced the bendix and the problem persists. Or else I bought a bendix with a problem.
On bmw c1 125cc 4 stroke engine dose the starter motor is above the driveblet flywheel?
Hello friend 👍. I remember those days & trouble with the bendix / starters lol. 🛵🎬🔧🫡
Yes, especially taking it all apart for the first time :))))
When I got my kymco 50cc and I took off the CVT cover there was a washer that fell out. It was for the starter. Did you put that back? It needs to be there so the starter doesn't rub against the wall of the cover. That could have been what happened to your grease/lubricant.
I updated my description for the video. The real reason was a dead Li-Ion battery that I had in the scooter. I charged it with a regular charger, and after few cycles it would not hold charge for long. Also, they are really poor performers in freezing weather. Changing up the battery to regular one solved the problem. And I saved the Li-Ion battery by getting a proper charger for it and charging it properly. They do a good job in warm weather conditions. When I shot the video I was sure it was bendix. It was not, so I updated in description.
Buddy, you saved me from replacing the entire starter assembly because I was about to give up.
i already changed the battery, the startermotor and the sparkplugs. i will try cleaning and greasing my bendix tomorrow. hopefully it works
@@ghubensg7314 did it work bro I’m thinking about
Trying tomorrow
@@zovards2089did it work for you bro?
@@ImSrry4BeingWhite nah oil all I need was a oil change i remember
@@ImSrry4BeingWhitecharge your battery this happend 2 times otherwise replace sparkplug and startermotor then it will 100% work
Buddy thank you so much
I was affairs of my bike from last 1month now I got the solution ya buddy
Where'd ur fan go?
i got a 2016 kymco vitality 50cc 4 stroke and it was doing this exact same thing. leaned it left and it would gear jump then catch. i just twisted the bendix to catch position and sprayed carb cleaner in it. put the cover and gasket back on and fine now. definitely gonna change it but it seems like these gy6 motors need a cleaning about every 500 miles.
My 50cc has this problem I try to electric start it and it doesn’t engage with bendix jsut keeps popping out or back.should I do what he just did
@@joebrightwell7802 same with my 08 gator 50cc couple bumps on the eletric start finally fires up.
I put a new bendix on it and it rotates a little, the pulley locks😑😢😩
@Bikes and Outdoors mine did the same thing at the beginning of the video, do I need to replace the same parts you did?
No. Just charge the battery.
@@bikesandoutdoors3616 ok I'll definitely do that and give you an update.
@@bikesandoutdoors3616 thanks for the advice soon as I charged it, it crunk right away
🤔 this is another area I did not check, I don't mind receiving extra parts that I ordered, if this is the problem.
Why my bendix flies off at place when i start
Bro I went the whole 9 yards I replaced the piston head, got a new valve head set and new ignition coil and cdi and still nothing, time to get a new battery ig wish me luck
Does all screws on the cover have an effect on the bike to start, (I replaced bendix, belt, battery)
If it's rotating and spinning the engine, it should start. If it's not doing that, then there is a different issue.
Hello brother, I have a 2012 TVS Wego.
I observed similar issue on my scooter.
I did replace the Original starter Relay, New original Starter motor and new battery. But still starter is jammed... If i try 2-3 times the starter runs jamed slow and the scooter starts up.
Please suggest me solution. Following the cleaning process the way you did will help?
What is a "Variator"?
Can you let me know why my kick start doesn't work. Every time I try to kick start it, it sounds like I'm about to brake something inside of it. But I can use the electric start and it fires up well.
Kick start is a weak point on these. It will need attention. On my new scooter (170cc) I'm having issues as well. Compression is so high I need to jump on that lever. Tomorrow we have 14F (-10C), and I will have to jump on that thing a lot with quick start spray in hand...
You probably are breaking something. I learned the hard way that you can't use the kick starter every day, they're meant for emergencies
my scooter is doing the same thing. it has new battery, bendix, starter, and it slow cranks. can i misaligned bendix cause a slow crank? the bendix sits inside the crank case. there looks to be some kind of a bushing in there that’s damaged. could that be it?
Definitely Yes. I had that issue, the bushing started breaking off into places. Yes replace the bushing
Me to mine of only 809 miles is making a grinding sound and can’t drive it 2miles it cuts off at 30mph and goes normally 55
Time to open it up and with the help of UA-cam fix it! :)
I opened my case but font have a bendix there. Is it behind my flywheel? Gy6 150cc taotao
That video was for 50cc Gy6 engine. Try checking UA-cam for the 150cc layout.

Buddy are u taking guesses or sum? All u had to do is adjust the bandex man u did extra bro
beginning of the video - discharged battery
at the end of the video - a charged battery
It's just fell out. Put back in
How do I fix the Bendix hole where I put my Bendix in it's a little deformed a little worn. Would that be a problem for still not starting .
As I wrote an updated description under the video, my main problem turned out to be the lithium battery, that I killed by using a regular battery charger over the winter. My bendix was also a little faulty, as it was dirty and didn't retract freely, if I remember correctly. Is your scooter cranking? Does bendix turn the engine over? Is starter getting enough power? If bendix is not retracting freely, try cleaning it or replace it. It's not an expensive part. But first make sure you have enough power going to starter and your starter is healthy/
@@bikesandoutdoors3616 thanks I appreciate your response and help. Yes I did not check the starter. But what are the symptoms I should look for if the starter is the problem, I think it turns over at one point and starts...but when I turn it off and try again just whirring. I looked closer and saw that the hole that it was in was out of shape. so I was wondering if that was the issue.
@@stauf09 To rule out the battery and starter, hook up an extra booster to your battery, nd try to replicate the issue. Knowing that the battery provides consistent power to start the engine, and the issue repeats, then yes, your bendix hole could be at fault. If I remember correctly, the bendix should not be sitting in just cast aluminum hole of the engine cover, but there should be a spacer that is in the hole and that spacer will make the bendix shaft to sit snugly in the hole. Make sure you have that spacer or if it's deformed, replace it.
@@bikesandoutdoors3616 thanks that's a five star help...
@@bikesandoutdoors3616 one more thing I forgot to ask how do I remove the the deformed Bendix brush spacer
OK.
What lube do you use?
I used some dry lube, but that's not the point. The real reason was that my battery was damaged from improper charging . Bendix had nothing to do with it. Use any lube that will not fly off into your belt and cause it to slip.
@@bikesandoutdoors3616 thanks man.
Is there a washer behind that bendix ???
I don't have that scooter anymore. To the best of my memory, there is no washer behind bendix.
There is a bushing behind that bending. IT has to be in there and not damaged or it will not allow the bending to work and has to be bushing with no damage. Very important
Which scooter is this?
Here in America it was sold as Tao Tao Evo 50cc
@@bikesandoutdoors3616 I have similar scooter, its called Lifan in my country
@@RedzicAnel Yes, I think they have many names, very confusing.139QMB engine 2016 model. Mine is upgraded with 80cc big bore kit.
It still doesn't play
Plays on every device I have now. Looks like temporary UA-cam problem.
The video won't play
I just checked it. For some reason it is slow to load, just wait a little longer and it will start. I don't know why, only with that video :(
It plays now. Looks like temporary UA-cam issue.
