I had the same issue with my 2007 tgb 49cc 202 it hadn't been started up for over 2 weeks I decided to put the revs on before I started it and it started first time have you tryed that?

@powerbookg4apple Hi thanks for the suggestion. But if I can remember correctly there was something messed up in the clutch that was causing this, may have been roller weights or something else but it's been a while.

Keep this in minds folks: DO NOT crank your scooter that long like this dude if you know your engine doesn't want to start; that electric starter will wear out sooner and you would have more problems to deal with than before!!!

@phambo101 Just speaking from experience, I've "started" it quite a lot in the last few years and I've never had a problem.....

its turning over, check the air filter,oil, fuel filter, and check petrol lines and petrol pump is working and clear, also possibly clean or service the carb! at least it is cranking over wich is good, but there doesent seem to be anything for the engine ignite, try abat o cold start in the air filter that i use on the car, it should get it it going : )

Try adjusting the valves! They will be tight! I bought my bike from a guy who said it doesn't start, I took some tools with me adjusted the valves in front of him, paid him the money put my crash hat on and it started right up!! The guys face was a picture as I rode off!!! Lol

PUT A NEW FUEL FILTER IN.

@phambo101 Thanks why don't you make a flipping video on how to do anything then? I'm just talking from experience, I've ran my scooter on some crazy trails, topped it out, etc. And have never had any problems like what you are saying.

It's more of an individual problem, and if you really want to fix it you have to troubleshoot it in real life.

And I'm not a scooter doctor, I thought I'd make a little video in my spare time to show some people how to do a simple idle adjustment.

[phambo101]

Therefore, Fatguy's scooter here wasn't running accordingly. To fire that sucker right up light a rocket, convert that cheap fuel pump with and electric fuel pump so you can gain a constant fuel flow ALL THE TIME, change all the original fuel lines, adjust or replace the throttle cable, and replace that safety fuse linkage in the battery compartment.

[phambo101]

Please allow this "scooter doctor" his two-cent-worth of advice concerning this video: Those gas scooters running the GY6 motors are poorly built from China somewhere; the fuel lines are poorly made which can crack and leak very easily; that engine vacuumed fuel pump are crapped! And the throttle cable can stretch soon afterward...
