    Changing the needle jet setting will primarily change mid range jetting. The main jet will control the mixture at full throttle, and should be the starting point for tuning the carburettor for optimum performance. Once the main jet is optimised, the needle jet and pilot jet's should be adjusted to achieve the correct mixture at different throttle openings.

    Moving the clip up moves the needle down so the thicker part of the needle is in the needle jet leans the mid range out. At full throttle the needle position is insignificant. This would only help if the mixture were rich through the middle. Unless you are correcting a defect, you cannot add more fuel to the same airflow and increase performance.You still need to maintain the stoichiometric air to fuel ration of 14.7:1. The main jet meters fuel flow at wide open throttle, which if you are seeking top end, that would be the area to focus on, IF you increased air flow through the engine.

    Moving the snap ring up on the needle like shown will seat it further into the main jet channel, that restricts it, moving the snap ring down towards the pointy end allows more fuel to flow.

    All you did by moving the clip on the needle up one is lean the engine out which makes the engine run hotter and wear quicker. DONT DO THIS !! Placing the clip in a lower position raises the needle enriching the emulsion tube with more fuel and makes the engine run richer. This setting allows the engine to run cooler .The video is sorry and it's incorrect info. Do the research and get the facts. NEVER use a electric driver on carb screws !!!

      Isn't it incredible that this guy is telling over 280K people (so far) completely bogus, screwed up info?! He doesn't even know that it's called a needle valve. How many people have ruined their scooters by doing this? Jeez... As you know, James, your assessment is 100% accurate. I'm just seconding what you said. PEOPLE, DON'T DO THIS! If your engine runs hot (which it will be inclined to do by dropping the needle) then you'll probably end up blowing the thing up, and that would be a shame. Snip the restrictor if you must, but leave the needle alone!

  • @JesperValentine
    @JesperValentine 11 лет назад +14

    Only if the response in PART THROTTLE is not as desired, you move the clip UP on the needle to get LEANER and DOWN to get RICHER. So in this example you will get LESS fuel so it will get LEANER. Its best felt by erratic engine behaviour at part throttle:
    If its hesitating at part throttle, you need to get richer - move clip down one ring. If its 8-stroking (or 4-stroking if a 2-stroke engine), you need to get leaner - move clip up one ring.

    Ok let me get few things straight for you who have never worked on your bikes
    1.look for info about your bike on internet, you will pretty much always find out what is restricted what is worth doing and how to do it
    2.if not necessary do NOT modify stock parts, you might need them someday and the resell value is a lot higher. Usually aftermarket parts also give more boost to your bikes performance
    3.Carburetor settings. Extremely important especially on 2 strokes. always adjust your carburetor settings after modifying your bikes performance. If you don't do this you will have really high chance of blowing up your engine + you won't gain the max performance you could be getting.

    So how much was the scooter slowed down when you weakened the mixture by putting the needle further down into the needle jet?
    So if you are reading this then remember that the needle is tapered, the further up the circlip is , the lower the needle sits in the needle jet, the wider the needle taper into the bottom jet, the less airgap for the fuel vapour to be drawn up. Therefore the less fuel up into the venturi intake. The smaller the bang, the less power out. Oh dear!

    revs are controlled by the CVT clutch spring and rollers, cutting that wire just removes the speed sensor from the loop. You also need to pop out the restriction plate where the rollers are , doing that lets the scoot do about 38 mph on the flat . Dont lean off the mixture like has been done here , engine death :-)

    • @scriptles
      @scriptles Год назад

      Sounds pointless, as stock I can already hit 40mph+ anyways on flat ground. What I find helps increase speed without mod is to back off full throttle to the point you are maintaining your speed then SLOWLY give it more throttle I have gone over 50mph/80kmh on flat ground on pure stock no mods. If you are getting only 38 you are doing something wrong.

Both my old Tao Tao (ATM50-A1), and now my Denali (yongfu) had no problem hitting 40 mph but only if I ease off the throttle and gently ease into it. If I just max out the throttle I barely hit 20-25. Pretty sure both of those are also chinese scooters and the translations in the guide are poorly written. Like "cer tain" shouldn't be 2 words and "outtak" should be exhaust or at least spell take right when they spell intake correctly. ect.. Upgrading the Tao Tao to 100cc with the big bore kit let me do about 40-50 mph (up to 80 kmh on the speedometer). It might not be restricted I never checked to confirm.

    The needle adjustment has the most effect on midrange power. Jetting is more important to proper carb tuning on full throttle runs. If the scooter acts bad at part throttle, then it's time to adjust the needle. At part throttle, If it hesitates but then cleans up when you let off the throttle, you're lean (move washer towards longer side of needle). If it just hesitates and doesn't clean up when you let off, then it's rich(move needle toward shorter end of needle)

    One recommendation that I would make for ANY moped new or old is to adjust the valve clearance to the factory settings. I have a 2013 Kymco Agility 50 and just adjusted the valves to the factory specs of 0.051 mm and it has more power than it ever had from the factory. Sometimes these scooters leave the factory with valves that are not adjusted properly. The difference was significant.

    Buddy of mine races these things, the best "cheap" way to go about adding 10mph is to Port your intake hole on your head, then cut about 1/2 inch off the access plate on your clutch ON BOTH SIDES so it's even, and then run them on alcohol injection systems. He's doing 65 on a 50cc the clutch shave allows the engine to reach a higher rpm before engaging and thus a faster acceleration. Porting the intake allows for amazing overall fuel flow into the cylinder and actually added roughly 4 hp!

    The rev limiter is in the CDI box there are unlimited rev cdi boxes for these gy6 motors they are blue aluminum with fins and an led showing spark, wont make much difference unless you install the bigbore kit with it then you need to re jet your carb. The carbs from china are capped over the fuel / air mixture screw you can drill two small holes side by side and use a small flat head driver and easily twist the little brass cap off. the normal setting is 1 1/2 turns out from all the way in, if you find you need to turn the screw in further then you need a smaller pilot jet and vise versa. You are adjusting the main jet with the needle mainly used to get rid of flat spots in the acceleration both of these adjustments will be different for every one depending on altitude, temp, exhaust size and intake flow, and carb venturi size. Those CV carbs that come stock are crap though with little to no tuning. you can drill out all the screws that are capped off to prevent you from getting in it or just buy the upgraded "so called" high performance carb.

    I should have mentioned the benefits. Properly adjusted valves will keep the engine running as efficiently as possible which means better fuel economy, increased power and torque, slightly increased top speed (assuming that the scooter is deresricted), better throttle response, and the engine will typically be easier to start.

  • @Dwainpipe21
    @Dwainpipe21 8 лет назад +15

    lifting the clip one notch on the needle will weaken the mixture meaning more air less fuel rather than making the mixture richer,more fuel less air which could cause the ped to run weak on 2/3 throttle to full throttle as that is when the needle / main jet have most effect which could cause the ped to seize so not a good idea. Unless you have changed the exhaust, intake etc there should be no reason to lift or lower the needle or change the jetting of the carb It WILL NOT GO FASTER!. The main restriction in a ped is in the cdi (rev limiter/timing advancement), exhaust (restricting washer) and variator(a washer/ spacer which stops the pulleys from closing right up which stops the ped from reaching a high enough gear so it just revs out)

I tried various combinations of head valve settings and it helped a little, but the "bogging" when I go 50-80% throttle persists... do you think that I need a larger air flow, so a carburetor with a larger air intake so the fuel gets enough air to explode properly?

    This just seems like something that going to bit you in the ass eventually. The pink wire is there to stop you from over revving your scooter and doing damage to your motor. In most cases this only limits your top speed when going downhill, as on flat ground most scooters don't have the power to hit the rev limiter. So please people watching this, keep your rev limiter installed it's there for a reason.
    And second. Adding fuel isn't going to do much if you don't increase the air flow to go with it. All that going to do it make your scooter run rich, have worse fuel economy, and in some cases depending on altitude and air density, actually make your scooter slower and run like shit.
    If you want to make your scooter faster, you're going to need to do actually engine and part upgrades. Little things like this almost always come with a nasty compromise somewhere down the line.

I will not be forced at gunpoint to comply with their business practices without having my own right to to have a gun to defend myself FROM ANYBODY ON EARTH If they seek to take every last drop of my liberty freedom and Each and every human rights, then they can take my right to life first. I will not live a slave to random administrators posing as judges and be forced to pay my wealth to his company. I will not comply. We all have the rights, until they take them from us and deny we have them and trick us into signing a contract agreeing to pay a fee to excercise our rights. Licencing agencies take our first signature on our initial driver license to be a life-long membership subscription to their company. It's all about money, my money-our money, Corporations want our money and equity for themselves, while giving nothig in return just taking from us. Every judge, court clerk,bailiff, and prosecutor are there for one purpose: to take money from you anyway possible, through fees and fines, jail you if they can because they get more funding from the pot they share for every one man incarcerated into the prison profit industry(the single largest industry in the U.S.) They abolished public lashings, but if you don't buy their license they will punish you, and there are no more Patrick Henrys. I prefer death over the denial of my rights,my enslavement and forced poverty at the hands of these evil, laughing people that cause so much suffering to all of us so they can get richer.

    There's a mixture control needle on most carburetors on scooters. (Sometimes capped off with a bronze disk that can be drilled out, but it's still there.) Best just tune the carb for the temperatures. If you wanted to change the mixture, that seems like the better bet instead of taking it apart.
    The rev limiter removal seems ridiculous, your scooter is running at extremely higher rpm's than most cars and even aircraft ( Remove the limitations without so much as a tachometer to watch things and you will eventually blow the motor while riding down a hill faster than the thing was made to go.
    If you want the thing to truely go faster, the cheapest thing would be to remove limiters that may be installed (choke tube on the air intake, block plate on the air intake near the carb, washers in the exhaust, simply drilling out the baffles in the exhaust pipe, lubricating tire bearings, ensuring the speedometer cable isn't binding, increasing jet sizes, etc. and what everyone else practically already said) if you really want to go faster, then a 82cc kit isn't bad.

    You're better off installing a bbk, aftermarket carb and exhaust, and changing cvt rollers, otherwise derestricting alone will not do a whole lot on a 50cc. You'll also want to richen, not lean out the air/fuel mixture.
    These things will still run cheaper than buying a larger displacement scooter.

      in some situations running leaner will improve performance but this needs to be diagnosed by carrying out a "plug chop" but that will indicate information about the main jet the needle is just for the introduction of fuel from the main jet to the engine so leaning it off without main jet alteration will just cause it to pick up well until its at full throttle then it will just overfuel (like most of these mopeds do)

    @titosyettos2689 9 месяцев назад +2

    You only really need to cut the wire (wich isnt always pink, check with your scoots forums). But if you really want higher top speed you need to mess a bit with the CVT (the thing that gets the power from the engine to the wheel) plus this is a better option than messing with the engine because it wont explode on you. To get the best results you'd probably want to get aftermarket Pulleys that will be adjusted for higher top speed, but beware it will be not the cheapest and may decrease acceleration (from what i understand theres a sort of pin that u can replace with a smoothed down one and thats kinda cheap its just im not sure if all scoots have this nor how affective it is).
    Strongly recommend to not mess with the engine as it has a bunch of controls that are desgined to specifically work with factory ratios. The moped will run weirdly and can have problems, i can say because i had a moped with an aftermarket cdi that let me rev more and the piston rings blew up on it. Biggest recommendaition is to just drive it for most of the seasson and only at the very end to do stupid stuff.

    I think he's actually moving the needle to the factory setting. On most of these bikes the factory setting is the middle notch. So, it would of been running a little rich in the first place so this particular bike might run better after changing the needle setting back to the middle notch. Give the guy props, it's hard to make these videos sometimes. Especially when you need both hands to do something and you can't always get a friend to hold the camera.

    if you want to do it right get a unrestricted cdi box and install gauges with a tach. the cdi limits rpm to 6k so you can't go faster than 35. change it with regular one and you can go at least 45 on a 50cc without going over 8k rpm limit.

  • @nicholascgoss
    @nicholascgoss 6 лет назад +48

    As a mechanic I can tell you that
    A) more fuel does not mean more power. It just means your running the engine richer, it will use more fuel.
    B) more importantly you move the clip UP making the needle longer (lower position) and closer to its seat and therefore your running the engine leaner not richer. On 2 strike engines running the mix too lean can cause permanent damage to the piston and other components.
    Please do t follow the advice he’s giving with the carby.
    As for the wire that he carelessly cut instead of just removing from the plug, I’d want to see more information about what it is, how it works and what are the consequences of removing it before doing that. There is a reason why highly qualified engineers do these things so removing and cutting “this black thing” and “that metal thingL and “the yellow thing” and “this bit” etc is a great way to quickly end up with a bike that needs expensive repair work.

One or two grounds, power from the stator, kill switch wire, wire to the coil and the pick up wire. You’re cutting the pick up wire. The only wire that tells the CDI when to fire.

    if you move that lock ring up, it will run leaner, what means it gets less fuel at mid throttle.. so you changed the needle in the wrong direction. also normally you just change the main jet, so the scooter gets more gasoline at all throttle positions. when moving the needle it gets more gasoline mid throttle but the same amount as before at full throttle. i highly advice everyone to not mess up their carburator adjustments because of this nonsense video. you really should know something about these engines and adjustments before you make an tutorial to youtube..

    You can by de-restricted CDI's pretty cheap (around $20us). Especially if you are concerned about cutting into the wiring harness. On the chinese bikes, they all use pretty much two types. AC and DC. So just go to your local scooter shop with your CDI and hand and match it up. The plugs are different on the AC fired ones so you won't get them mixed up. It's one of the easiest mods you can make. Then keep the old one as a spare as they do fail often.
