Title: 2017 super 8 stops running while idling
Post by: LittleDalek on September 12, 2017, 12:33:49 PM

So I just got the scooter, and since it's been cooler here, I have to let her warm up in the morning.  So she'll be idling, but then any time I try use the throttle, she stops and I habe to let her sit before trying again and just have the same results. Help?

New machine, not running right, give the dealer a chance to get it right under warranty.

have the fuel lines checked. Had the same issue with my Movie and it turned out that the fuel line had a small blockage

I had the same problem...turns out the gas cap is not venting properly. I just remove gas cap and she starts up and usually stays running.

If under warranty, shop should fix. Had identical issue. Turned out to be a plugged slow jet. Replaced it and scoot runs like a million bucks!

I just purchased my 2nd super 8 150 with the same problem.  This is a 2016 model. I have to work on it next weekend
