Super 8 / Stock CDI - 2015 Kymco Super 8 4T
« on: January 11, 2017, 03:40:06 PM »
Does anyone know where I can purchase a stock CDI (8-pin) for my 2015 Super 8 4T?  Dealer wants $75.  I hate paying stealer-ships but I may not have a choice.  Thanks

Hey Roytheroach:  I have the same scoot.  Where did you get the new CDI for $30.00?  I also need to order one.  Thanks

Super 8 / Super 8 2T Carburetor

Does anyone have a recommendation on a reasonably priced Carb that has a manual choke that would fit a 2013 Super 8 2T?  I have seen a couple on ebay that would fit, but none of them have the nipple for the Vacuum line.  Im assuming my vacuum line needs to be connected so that the fuel petcock works to get fuel in the Carb.  If there is a way around this, please let me know.

I am tired of the Manual choke.  It doesnt do much helping with cold starts. 

Thanks

Sorry for the long delay.  Had family in town for Christmas and New Years and did not have time to do any work on the Scooter.  Here's the latest.  Scooter is STILL not firing.  I checked the valve clearance and they were set correctly at .08mm as stated in the manual.

Even though I am getting spark at the spark plug could the CDI unit be faulty and causing a weak spark? Should my spark plug be a little wet after all of these attempts to start it?  Every time I have taken out the spark plug to check it, it is clean and dry. 

Even though I am getting compression should I do an actual compression check to see what it actually is?  anybody know what the compression should be?

Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you and Happy New Year!

Sorry, I mean to type in mm.  Yes, it is .08mm.  I will give it a shot and see what happens.  Thanks to all!

I think I am going to look into the valve clearance suggestion this weekend.  I looked in Kymco manual and it says both intake and outake valve clearance should be set .08.  Does this sound correct??

Yes, I unplugged the gas line to the carb from the gas tank, sucked on the vacuum line connected to the carb and fuel was flowing.  I then opened the screw at the bottom of the carb bowl and fuel came out. I then put the vacuum line back on the carb and with the gas line still not plugged back in, I cranked the scooter and gas came out of the fuel line so it seems that I am getting good vacuum.

The only thing I have seen that has been done to it is the pink/purple wire from the CDI harness was cut.  Based on what I have read in this forum, I think that wire acts as a rev limiter.  Other than that, I think everything else is stock.  It is still under warranty so I am hoping that I can take it in if I can't get it started and it be covered under the 2-year Warranty.  Does anyone know if the wire being snipped on the CDI will VOID the warranty??

thanks for the reply eamartin.  I have taken the spark plug out on several different occasions and every time I have checked, it is DRY. 
I just got a reply this am from a tech person and he says if I am getting spark then the CDI is NOT the problem.  Im not a mechanic but I am pretty handy with small engine stuff.  I am pulling my hair out with this one.  Makes NO sense why it is not firing. 

Let me know what you think!  Thank you

Purchased a used 2015 Super 8 50cc four stroke a couple of weeks ago.  The owner told me it had been sitting for a while and that it would not start.  First thing I did was take off the carburetor and the jets were pretty bad so I decided to get a brand new carb and installed it.  Empied the gas tank, blew out the fuel lines and put in non ethanol fuel.  Also installed a new NGK spark plug.  I am getting spark, fuel is flowing into the carburetor, it is getting air, but it just turns over with zero signs of wanting to fire up.  I tried spaying starter fluid in the carb and it did nothing.  I took the spark plug out and stuck my finger in the spark plug hole while starting and I am getting compression.  If the CDI is bad, will this cause it NOT to fire up??

Any ideas where to go next will be greatly appreciated!  I am stumped.

Can anyone please tell me what the stock carb is on a 2013 Super 8 50cc 2 stroke?  I am trying to get some carb parts and have no idea which carb it is.  Thanks
