When I ordered my Vitacci Spark 150cc the saleslady told to to MAKE SURE I CHANGE THE OIL BEFORE starting it. She said it a couple times andadded the oil in it is purely shipping oil to prevent rust. And do not screw the oil cap in when checking the level, just set it in the hole until it rests on the thread opening.
When changing oil, in my car, lawn mower or anything with a combustion engine I first run the motor to heat the oil. This lets the oil flow better, and I would also wait until the oil has settled. Then wearing gloves and being aware that the oil could be hot, then I drain it. This is also true for any filter also (which would be changed or cleaned at the same time). And always remember "LEFTY LOOSEY, RIGHTY TIGHTY", and if space is an issue use a socket set. And just one other thing SNUG is good, Over tightening is bad... And always check for leaks afterward...
I always use a box end wrench. it does not rock to the side like a socket does sometimes and slip off. Been working on cars trucks and motorcycles for 45 years.
Not sure if you did this off camera, but when you change the oil, once it gets to where its just dripping, just tilt the bike side to side to make sure the rest is all out.
Hello my friend ! you need to change the gear ⚙ oil immediately, because both oils motor/ gear are shipping filler. Unless you purchase straight from the dealer where the service has been already been performed by dealership. Just a recommendation, nice scooter 👌
@@just4kicks950 do you know anything about vitacci zuma (zoma?) 150cc? Just looking for information about a scooter I got my son. Saw your comment. Trying to be informed. The official website is almost funny (obvious used Google translate for their owners manual) but not very helpful
@@SHMagictricktutorials How about now? Check clearance of you're valve. That need to be check i guess every 1k miles or less. Their some good carb replacement.
@@SHMagictricktutorials Valve clearance is easy to check and adjust. Guage and tight a nut to adjust valve that easy. And replacing the carb to PWK Carburetor will help a lot and make it even faster. Also number one problem people use the oil that is in it already. Shipping oil is very thick and it cause issue. Dedicate the fun time and free time researching.
@@rcrotorfreak the oil has been brought up before, the oil that comes in the bike from the factory looks and has the same consists as oil manufactured here in the usa the only difference is the location its made. and if we are not kidding our selfs the oil we buy on the self very well could be made in china with a fancy label slapped on in the grand US of A
Never break in an engine with synthetic oil. It is too slippery and does not allow the rings to seat properly. Break in an engine with conventional oil then at your first oil change switch to full synthetic oil. I am a motorcycle mechanic I know what I am talking about.
I have a question my scooter has an issue where the front head lights stay even when is off completely y try turning on and off to see but it didn’t made a difference only think I was able to do is disconnect the harness then it goes off
So you been using shipping oil all this time until 700 miles? Thank god it ended up being good. Usually stock oil to get it lubricated while being ship and store. Until when put in use first time you drain it before starting. But great. So still using it to this day? How has it been?
Remove the screws and bolts that hold the seat and storage to the scooter and lift it out, now look down at the front of the engine and look for a chrome metal cover with a wire connected to it. That is the sparkplug.
I found this video looking for information on maintenance and upkeep for a zuma vitacci 150cc scooter I just got for my son. He's 18 years old but hasn't had really any experience with vehicle maintenance. I think your bike looks to be very very close. The owners manual very obviously used Google translate to go from Chinese to English. Online manual pdf is almost comedic. Watching your unboxing video was the first clue we had that the lock for the seat might be at the ignition switch. No button on ours. We can't seem to lock the seat so it's not much of a safe storage compartment. There is a key hole on the side of the bike so...?? The place we bought it from isn't much help. They are a long ways away and said they can only help if we bring the bike back in. I'm guessing/hoping when it comes to oil changes and spark plugs that they are more similar so we will be Watching your videos more. If anyone reading this knows more or how to find an owner manual that does refer to ignition as "why your scooter doesn't catch fire"... I'd appreciate a response! Or a website for owners of this bike! My son loves it. But I want to maintain it not run it into the ground asap for lack of care or him a bike newbie
Is it still running good? Thinking about getting a cheap Chinese scoot for a summer toy/project but even though I like working on them I don't want something that's a total POS
for a cheap summer toy sounds like a good idea... ive gotten a little over 800 miles but i am still trying to get it started.. its been raining for a week plus
Black is no real indication if the oil is good or bad. You really should have changed it earlier on the first change because of break in metals. Either way change it often and sleep well.
It's Just chocolate Syrup should have Changed it when it got it's First Run..But Yeah those Bikes Run Better Than Noisy Harley.. chic's Dig guys With Scooters and Got money to 🍃 Blow.
Wow 😳😳😳... you made this video very hard to watch. All the way from the condition it was in when you first started the video down the oil change...as a engine technician for over 30 years it pains me to watch this..

Normally on Honda clone engines you don't screw in the dip stick to measure the oil. Instead you only set it on the threads.

That factory oil was not regular motor oil but shipping oil solely to keep the internals while rusting during storage and transport.
It looked the same as the oil I just put in.
What kind oil I need it’s urgent
@@MikehooksEm Watch the video....
Oil for motorcycles or oil for ATV and UTV is good. Walmart has it in the auto dept. Made by Valvolene.10 w 40.@@MikehooksEm
Cuestión, is no to early to change the oil?, how many miles is recommended to do ? Thanks

What filler is it?
@@SHMagictricktutorials just something to keep the internals from rusting in shipping. Poorly refined oil .Watch UA-cam vids on it
The dealer doesn't necessarily change it. They tell YOU to change it

@@annemiller8227 What info are you looking for ??
What reliability you consider your scooter?
I'm checking prices and stock for buy one but I'll considering owner opinion before take the decision
It won't start right now, after 700 hundred miles, but I'm sure it won't be hard to get it to, just cold outside where I'm at.

How is it bro the scooter
Synthetic oil. Use it. Lasts much longer and won’t break down like regular oil
Not for the break in, to slippery and the rings won't seal correctly. After the engine has maybe 500 miles or so on it then switch to synthetic.
@@scrambler69-xk3kv that’s true. After break-in regular oil.
Never break in an engine with synthetic oil. It is too slippery and does not allow the rings to seat properly. Break in an engine with conventional oil then at your first oil change switch to full synthetic oil. I am a motorcycle mechanic I know what I am talking about.

That drain plug can be a knuckle buster

Não tô conseguindo liga lá como faço montei tudo direitinho.
I would have changed the oil immediately upon arrival with new fresh oil.
As well as change the fuel lines and fuel filter.
🤷♂️
How fast does the scooter go
50cc between 30 and 40 mph, most 150cc scooters between 55 and 60 mph.
Where is the spark plug located cause I have the same bike
the spark plug is on the right side about middle of the engine obviously under the seat
Remove the screws and bolts that hold the seat and storage to the scooter and lift it out, now look down at the front of the engine and look for a chrome metal cover with a wire connected to it. That is the sparkplug.

Maintain it and do not hammer on it because it will not hold up to it. Drive it like you are a senior citizen and you will be fine.
10/40 is optimal FYI
how are you liking the scooter?
ua-cam.com/video/Y-qS-y4Ok4Y/v-deo.html
Parece que tem alguma coisa cortando.
Down to the 10mm mark on the oil qt!
I appreciate your feedback
My scooter won't kick i to gear. Anybody know what the heck is going on with it?
From the start, she doesn't take it anymore. There's a tap to turn on gas.

dont turn to check , oil level .
You do not screw it in to check oil !!!!!
