Hi all, I realize this isn't the correct place for a first post but I'm in a bit of a tight spot as I need to try and remedy my girlfriends scooter pretty urgently.
It's a 125 sukida sportman with a gy6 engine, done around 3000 km.
It's been running ok for the last few months, she uses it around town to get to work and back, and apart from a frozen throttle cable and a faulty cdi, it's been fairly good so far.
Yesterday on the way home from work she said it started juddering as she went uphill and then it died and would restart. After pushing it home, we managed to restart it a couple of hours later, and she took it for a spin and had no problems. This morning she went out on it and managed about a mile before the same thing started to happen. I took it out and it seems to be running fine at low throttle but much over half way and it just bogs down, go back to under half throttle and bit runs ok. It's almost as though its not getting any fuel at open throttle positions? Anyway, I left it a few hours and went back outside to try it, and it seemed to run fine at all throttle positions, which leads me to think its running ok when cold but as soon as it warms up its having fuelling problems.
Sorry for the long ramble but I don't know much about these engines and am hoping that someone else may have had similar problems before and can suggest a cure?
Thanks
Dan
