Lots of people can work on scooters, but only a small handful can teach it as well as you! Subscribed and liked man what a great teacher! Here in Florida at sea level we need bigger jets looking forward to watching more of your videos.
Wow! _Excellent_ video. It all makes sense now. Though, i will have to watch the video a few times to absorb it all. Every video should be like this. Explanation, step by step, case analysis, recap. Thank you for being amazing.
This is one of the best "carb tuning for dummies" videos l've seen so far. I would assume this would also apply to 150cc engines as well (except the jet sizes will be larger).
@@jaymcbride4081 The tuning procedure on the 150 is almost the same as this video. I do have a 150cc tuning video as well, but it's not as good as this one.
14.7 is the ideal stoichiometric ratio, but it isn’t the ratio that makes the most power. Depending on the engine that ratio is in the range of 12.5 to 13.5. This is because under load and at high rpm the molecules of air may not be close enough to a molecule of fuel to burn. The increase in fuel increases the probability of fuel being in the right place at the right time for the flame front to propagate.
@@andrewf8486 Yes, a bit on the rich side makes more power. By trying different main jets to find the fastest one, I probably end up somewhere around that ratio.
I have a custom 1980 xs650, after doing tones of research I could not get it to stop running rich I was so confused, after watching this video, I fixed my bikes issues and she's running like a dream, thanks a million professor lab coat guy!!!
This is hands down the best carburetor jet tuning tutorial out there. Thank you, Sir! I would like to add that if your needle isn't adjustable like the one in this video, you could put small washers on it to raise it and at least test it on the rich side. Great video.
I appreciate all the work you put into this video. I'm a novice trying to get a scooter running for my college-bound daughter. Thank you for explaining it so well!
This has honestly been the best video I've ever seen on carburetor adjustment. all about the practical application, doesn't overload me with scientific mumbojumbo that I'll never use, and really makes understanding the concepts and applications of carburetor adjustment palatable for the common wrencher.
the very best video I have seen on tuning carbs for these little scooters. Thank you so much for taking the time to make it. Now I have to watch it again because there is so much information in it.
I’ve seen lots of videos on carb tuning but this one is by far the best. If someone finds this hard to understand they need to watch it about five times.
Wow, impressively thorough and detailed explanation of how a carb works, AND careful, methodical explanation of how to tune and diagnose for a variety of conditions. You sir, did a great job!! Wish all UA-cam videos were half as informative and helpful. Thank you!
I always had a rule about carburetors: Don't Touch!!!! Since mine decided to get clogged and had a few things go screwy on it, I had to break the rule. Glad to have found this video. REALLY needed the info. Thanks.
One of the best explanation of jetting a small scooter motorbike Carb... Your explanation and graphics confirmed and reinforced my understanding and tuning techniques. .
Ive seen so many videos on carb tuning and this is the best one I've seen hands down. Thanks so much breaking down every step you did on order to understand the cause and effects. Great job and I look forward to more from you!
This is the best tutorial I've found so far. Been google searching how to tune for the 80cc big bore kit I installed and every google search is like people trying to protect some kind of international secret.
Absolutely the best carb tuning tutorial ever. Well done, well explained and I can appreciate the effort you put into this tutorial and the work to ensure your scooter is running the best it can. From the graphics, animations , on board video, tripod shots sped up of removal/install clearly showing the parts etc. It’s super helpful and helps me better understand each function and how to troubleshoot carb issues and how they relate to specific engine running conditions. The only thumbs down I have is Pawshina looks to have outgrown her scooter...but yet still having a really good time!
Paul, what the heck are doing out there....besides KILLING IT! This video is the clearest most helpful video in our little scooter community! Thanks bro, I will make this my guideline in tuning my carb. this spring. All the info anyone will ever need! Hats off!
Thanks for the awesome compliment and good luck with your scooter! Keep in mind, tuning a carburetor requires a bit of patience. You'll probably have the carburetor out of the scooter 10 times like I did, before you find exactly the right settings.
My scooter was bogging down alot after his vid i adjusted the vacuum needle and it works fine. Your the man excellent help from you Thankyou so much 👍🏻👍🏻
You sir, are a brilliant teacher. This is crisp, fast, easy to understand and I am grateful and confident I’ll soon have my scooter running perfect. Thank you!!!
Update: After applying the method described, plus a valve adjustment, my scooter starts immediately, idles perfect both cold and hot, does not smell and pulls strongly on all speeds.
Back in the day, on a dyno, we used to put tape on the throttle grip and mark closed, 1/4, 1/2, and full throttle to make it easier to re-jet and compare power output.
Excellent tutorial.... very clear and informative. I have watched several other videos explaining separate parts of the whole 'tuning puzzle' but this is the first complete and concise version I have found. Thank you for sharing...... it has helped me alot!
Thank you very much❤ This video is really detailed for me to replace one new Keihin CVK Chinese 50cc scooter engine. You are really amazing to be a nice teacher for scooter carburetor at this clips. Thanks again🫡
Man this is the best information filled video I have seen you make it very easy to understand and has a lot of writing to go back and pics to double check while fixing my bike awesome and actually works 👍
Best presentation and explanation of the options and interactions I've seen! And I've been watching a lot of vids now as trying to get my scooter running again! And last few times I rode it--after a "professional" tune up--it ran shitty. Until seeing this video, I was just worried about cleaning the carb & making sure the jets weren't blocked! Checked my jet sizes (35/88), so all makes sense it was running too rich! (It had ran well for the first few years I got it from the dealer, so really suspect the intelligence of the guys who last worked on it) So glad I'm finally teaching myself how to take care of it and a video like yours satisfies my engineering background and the hands-on/work bench sides of me!
Thanks! You can definitely tune your scooter better than the shop. I've had many bad experiences with scooter and motorcycle shops too. Now that you've watched this video, you know more about carburetors than those guys do.
Dude, I've watched a lot of carburetor tuning videos to tune my DR500, but this was definitely the best! Thanks a lot man, now I completely know how my carburetor works and why it's running bad.
Man, this video was golden. After watching this video and doing diagnostic & mixture adjust I managed to get my scooter run at idle. Idlespeed screw was cranked too much and it skipped whole idlesystem. Symptoms was that scooter did idle like 10sec and then shutted down. Used your basic setting which you told in this video; 2 full turns idlespeed screw when contacting throttle lever and mixture screw full closed and unscrew it full 1 turn. And boom; holy shit, idle was there
great video. explains a lot of what issues i am having with my taotao 50. Also explains what a PIA the taotao 50 is and how much work it always takes to keep it running. no wonder they are so cheap.
Bro, you definitely got it going on. I have a first gen Chuckus with a 80cc bore kit on it that hates me for some odd reason. Tomorrow I'm going to pop this carb off and check, but I guarantee I'm sitting at a 75 jet. I'll update this tomorrow.
Started with main jet 92. Swapped like 100 times. Ended up with a 90 main jet but with a new air filter. Long story short - it's waaay easier to diagnose air intake problems than main jet problems.
@@LabCoatPaul thing is those foam filters are too loud, which attracts unwanted attention. Though often a 50cc is also available as a 125cc, and those airboxes flow much better and they aren't too loud. Plus they've got the OEM branding and all of the E-numbers on them.
This is well spent 15 minutes, very well explained. I have some problems with my scooter, working my way up in main jet right now. It runs decent but I dont think it gets enough fuel on full speed. It also stalls at idle if I do a quick twist and release on the throttle. Btw, I had the same ways with tha air filter box, removed and it wanted bigger jet. But I hate the noise from the open filter so I think I will modify a stock air box to work well. Maybe an open filter inside the box and more holes to get it flow enough. My scooter is 72cc and does about 70 kmh/44mph. I just want it strong, it does not need to go faster.
Awesome video, I show this to my friends every time they think about going free flow on the intake. Too much trouble for so very little gains. Keep up the good work.
I bought a new carburetor for my 1P39QMB scooter. It came with a 0.33 pilot jet & a 0.78 main jet. Obviously, I want to get more speed out of my scooter, so I'm trying to add more fuel because the new carburetor came with a high flow cone filter. So I tried changing the pilot jet to a 0.38 & the main jet to 0.85. I'm gonna try to do what you did & keep going up or down in jets to which ever gives me the best top speed.
excellent video. i replaced air filter (upgrade) on a taotao GY6 49cc motor. totally changed performance. full throttle- engine boggs and almost dies. changed pilot to 33 (vs stock#30). adjusted main screw 1/4 to full turn, backseat. still has issue. maybe ill replace main jet???
That was about the Best explanation with awesome diagrams on how CV carbs work whether big or small!! How about one on a 4x CV carb setup :) :) Two BIG thumbs up man!!
This is the best video on the internet about tunning 50cc scooter! And I'm not even joking! PS. you solved a lot of my problems that I have with my scooter.
Thank you! I'm glad it was useful. I have several other scooter videos on my channel. My goal is to have repair videos for everything a scooter might need.
@@kevinstearns4198 Can you smell gas at all? Maybe you have a leak. Or you could try a smaller main jet. Smaller jet means it will use less gas. Take it on a long stretch of road where you can hit your top speed. If the smaller jet hits the same speed, you can probably use the smaller jet.
I burned a hole in the plastic cover, lol,,,,, I already know this stuff, your mostly correct and I appreciate there is people who enjoy racing others,,,, there is also calculators online that you can type in all information about your engine and elevation, it then tells you the proper jettings
You really have alot of effects from different jets, i ride with the same jet year round, now with a foam filter but its the same jet as when i had the stock filter, and it rides perfectly, also got a performance exhaust on it now, and thinking about increasing the jet size from 86 to 88 or 90, will see.
Very well done. Once you throw the foam filter on though you are signing up to learn a whole repertoire of additional retuning whether you like it or not. Had the original air box filter been of higher quality you might have just cleaned it and saved several hours of trial and error. I know you like your SYM, and many like me enjoy messing with carbs too up to a point, but this is yet another argument that most people are better off starting with a higher quality product than a Chinese scooter in the first place.
Finally someone who know Carb,...Thanks, after a month of screwing thing up my scooter's back on the road :) ,...that's not one of the best video,..IT IS THE BEST VIDEO PERIOD !!!!!
This video is quite old but one of the best explanations that i have seen on UA-cam that's actually in a language that i can understand... Btw i was wondering If a bigger carburetor = more power or higher RPM
A bigger carburetor will allow more air to flow through it, and it can add more gas, which means you can have more power.... IF your engine is able to draw more air through that bigger carburetor. You might be able to get a little bit more performance on the stock engine with a slightly bigger carburetor, but going a couple sizes up is actually worse, unless you've installed a bigger cylinder.
This guys a real rocket scientist this is the best most complete carb tuning Video I’ve ever seen A+
Can someone describe to me what the sharp odor smells like? Cuz I have a harsh burning rubber smell and I can't find out why
Sbeary was going to say the same thing. I’ve seen lots of videos on carb tuning but this one is by far the best.
@@rannolong5435 a slippery clutch maybe, if your clutch is slipping its going to burn off the clutch material therefore it smells
Did he mention float adjustment? I don't remember him mentioning that. But everything else was awesome!
Yea it is.
I now am a PhD in carburetor tunning thanks to you👍
Holy crap is that road rash? I just went back in time.
