I recently got changed all my fuel lines and fuel filter and now my scooter wont start. I took pick of where every fuel line goes and this is actually the second fuel filter I've on. anyway now it wont start. my scooter is a 2011 Taotao. I bought it brand new off the showroom floor with zero miles on it for $750. any suggestions would be great.

Now that is much better No need for nasty stuff all that does is cause trouble in river city. Thank you for listening to us old farts.
Ok now to try to figure out why your scooter will not start.
Here is how the fuel flow goes: Tank to a Petcock(or the Petcock valve is Attached to the bottom of the tank) then a hose goes to the Fuel Filter then from fuel filter to the Carb. Now since on this scoot it is GRAVITY FED the FUEL LINE MUST not dip down and up It has to be a straight shot to the carbs Fuel Inlet, otherwise it will be hard for the fuel to fill the CARB BOWL.
Now there is a VACUUM hose that connects to the PETCOCK either directly from the INTAKE MANIFOLD or a "T" or "Y" spliter. What that does is when you are turning the motor over it creates suction and that suction opens the DIAPGHRAM in the PETCOCK and allows fuel to Flow down into the CARB.
Why have you put on the second fuel filter? If you can take pictures of the FUEL and VACUUM lines we will be able to see if everything is hooked up correctly. Lefty

;D Notice "the old fart" gave the exact same advice....... Just sayin... ih8urwife...... 1 Letter can change everything... Just imagine what S.F.C could stand for..... Insert joke here.... Sorry BONG, Did not even read your response I was busy helping others , should I be giving you all kinds of STARS and KUDOS, is that what your looking for. BONG, This is NOT A CONTEST my friend this is trying to help someone with a scoot problem. Tell you what since you appear to be JUST SAYING and appear to be looking for exceptance. Tell you what you go ahead and take over FIX HIS scoot and I will stay out of it. You want the job or not or stop with your sh!t? You have been on a negative rampage on here several times already as well as on another forum. Lefty

Calm Down dude..... I made no joke you didn't already. I can play if you want but, I do respect your knowledge. I made no attack. Telling someone to change there name or I wont help you just doesn't seem right IMO. Everyone has their own set of ethics and the name he used was not funny but in very bad taste especially on a forum that have females and all kinds of people from all over the world. Say something like that to someone in most cities and you will be in a world of hurt. Not that I am a prude or anything far from it. When necessary I can dance with the best of them. Lefty

Those were in Letters S.C.F could mean anything if you want, same as this one that someone is using I know what it means but most will not figure it out, B.A.M.F, the one he used you can actually read and say the words it is plain as day no mistake about it.
Your name is not offensive DING DONG BONG just a bell ringing. Give it up, your on the looseing end of it. Lefty

Scott47265, Start a thread on the 50cc section so none of this will interfere with getting your scoot problems fixed and many others I am sure will chime in and help. Lefty
