I just acquired a 2010 with 185 miles on it. Thanks for this video. Hopefully it will be running soon.

Put tape on air box and crank engine it will start every time! The tape will choke engine and cause suction on pilot jet, Vroom!

[@TepcoCycleRepair]

Unless the pilot jet was clogged like this one was. Great scooters!

Is that the same carburetor for vino 50 cc 2002 to 2005??

[@TepcoCycleRepair]

I believe so.

[@jamesdvancleave4405]

What did you do to get fuel in the carb before start up? Do you blow compressed air in the vacuum line?

[@TepcoCycleRepair]

Suction on the pulse line will allow fuel to flow I talk about it at 3:28

[@86steelerfan]

After you put the suction on the hose, which port on carb do you put it to?

[@TepcoCycleRepair]

​​@@86steelerfan That's a separate line. The fuel line goes to the carb, suction is on the pulse line. You have to hold suction for the fuel valve to stay open, basically a few seconds. Check out 3:10

My Zuma have a lot of smoke come out from tail pipe I already upgraded to 70cc and jet. What could it be

[@Remps19]

Yamaha bws is a piece of shit bike lol, every time I want to use the piece of garbage it needs a carb clean and Yamaha makes it so you have to take every panel off the junk to get at the junk. 1200$ someone come get it junk.

[@TepcoCycleRepair]

Just use ethanol free fuel and you'll be good.

[@CursedCoff1n]

I got the same bike but i had a wet plug issue any advice?

[@Gawernator]

You saved a motorcycle racer some headaches haha thanks!

[@EmerickGauthier]

Hey man! I juste rebuild my bws 2005 put a new crankshaft, cylinder, piston, oil seals, crankshaft bearings, new bearings in my transmission and the oil is new, the two crank covers are all new I got spark compression oil and gas lines are going to the carb and I juste cleaned it but it won’t start. Do you know what could cause the issue ?

[@TepcoCycleRepair]

Could be a few things. First check compression, this will confirm everything is together properly, then with a new plug in, spray some starter fluid in the intake and see if it starts up. If it doesn't and you have good compression, check your flywheel to be sure the keyway is good so it's sparking on time, then check the reeds to be sure they are sealing then last but not least check the exhaust to be sure it's not clogged.
