Hello everyone,
I've got an '05 Filly 50 LX (which I learned is the identical cousin of a ZX50 thanks to zombie!) that won't start after a few years of *sniff* neglect.
I recently:
Replaced fuel, spark plug, battery, 7amp fuses
Cleaned out the carb, fuel filter
...but it still won't start!!
Some observations:
- Headlight and taillight doesn't turn on, but brake lights work when pressed upon.
- Electric starting system seems to work, spark plug is giving off a decent spark like it's supposed to.
- Spark plug is dry after a few attempts to start it.
- Little fuel comes out when the drain screw is removed (after quite a bit of throttle during attempts to start).
Any clues to help me get started? I'm a full time college student neck deep in exams, projects, relationship problems and etc...so I can only work on this bike ever so often. I'll try update my progress (good or bad) as I get my hands on this lil Filly.
I'm also new to working on scooters, so it would be nice if y'all can dumb down the technical vocabulary for me.
Much appreciated!
