Exactly !!! That was what I just did and it worked !!! I set the float system facing in the direction where the tank is longer and the fuel gauge started working as it should do. I will be driving the scooter this morning with full tank to see how the system behaves. But now I am very grateful to you for your sharp guidance.

I will report back !!!

Thanks a LOT !!!!

This is addressed to both BettinANDlossing and zombie. Unfortunately I don't have a tester to check polarities and I am not very well versed on electrical issues. But your advises I can follow if you could send me a graphic on what and where to apply the suggested procedures. Once I take the floater off the tank if I lift or bring down the floater the fuel gauge goes up and down accordingly. Even I tried  with a water tank and the floater  works fine. But when I reinstall it inside the tank the fuel gauge is dead. Please tell me how can I short the positive to the ground. What end of the system is the positive ? Or is it from the plastic connector which contacts the system wires to the wires going to the fuel gauge. Also for BettinANDlossing I would appreciate a graphic. I quite don't get  where exactly is the point to pinch....what is "it" that meets the wire ? The tank otherwise is almost full. I have my scooter outside dismantled waiting to solve this issue to go on with my daily life. Please report back.

Thank you for  your concern to help.

Thank you BettinANDlosing!!!  I did that and the floaters are ok. The problem remains that once inside  the tank the fuel gauge does not move at all. I tried all possible  positions once set inside the tank but the fuel gauge doe not  work at all. Only when I have it on my hands then the fuel gauge shows  FULL  and EMPTY. What else can I do  ?

EVEN MORE HELP !!!

I managed to remove the frame body cover and reach to the gas floaters. This is the problem : If I take the system outside the tank it will show quite well the ups and downs of the needle accordingly the case. But once the floater is inside the tank the fuel gauge remains static, is dead. What's going on guys ?

PLease help with a practical solution !!!

I am trying to solve a problem with my Agility 50 gas gauge. Now I have to enter into the gas tank to check the floaters and the power continuity. But I have been unable to remove the Frame Body Cover located right on top of the gas tank. I am afraid to press or pull more because this plastic stuff is quite fragil. I have removed all visible screws and still is hard  like a remorse. Can any friendly soul give a good piece of advise to remove it without hurting anything.

Thanks for your help!!!

I am going to close this case. While checking up on why the engine exploded I found at once  the spark plug was almost out of the chamber. I  just had to screw it again, connect to the wire, and the engine started normally.

Something I found  in Internet  while trying to solve my problem is a full, complete, detailed, specifications SERVICE Manual in English for the Kymco  Agility, that I share with the people in this forum:

Thanks for the massive help I got this time in the forum.

Thanks BLUE !!!!. This is the first thing I will do on Saturday when I will spend the day trying to fix my scooter. I wonder if there is a video on YOUTUBE that you can recommend to check and clean things usually related to issues like the ones I described.

Thanks for your Help !!!

This is a new issue posted today July 1st. I wish I can find someone who guides me through repairing and tuning up my Agility 50. In previous posts I was trying to know why my scooter suddenly stops. As if the gas had finished or some electrical disconnection had stop suddenly the engine. Unfortunately in those days the doctor told me I had to stop driving the scooter. The scooter was parked for something like 6 months, and now I got ok'd to use it again. This was  two months ago, and the sudden stop never happened again till today. I was driving and suddenly there was an explosion and the engine went off and refused to start again. Now I got the scooter back in a trailer into my garage and I have to start the painful process of discovering how bad-easy is the problem, how can I solve it by myself ( in Finland labor is extremely expensive). I am a senior citizen and I depend very  much of my scooter to go to doctor and shopping. Any assistance or guidance in having my scooter back to business will be greatly appreciated!!!!

I am sorry I did not explain enough. All these sudden stops occurred last year BEFORE  storing  the scooter in the garage during the Fall. Nowadays I am just doing preparations to avoid definitely a new sudden stop to hapen this summer. I would do the "peripheral" fixings to see if it is a matter of the  spark plug, the gas flow, etc, etc. The thing  is that labor is so expensive in Finland and if necessary I will have to do the carburetor cleansing myself.

Hei VIVO !!

I bought this  4 stroke scooter in June 2009.

The problem started in Fall last year. It happened  lets say less than 10 times, then the scooter was in the garage since October because of medical advise, till last week I started the scooter with the cran very easily after 6 months out of circulation. I have runned it for 3.500 kmts. since 2009.

It was always a matter of waiting a couple of minutes after a sudden stop to switch off-on again  and the scooter started without problem.

Hope this info is useful.

Again, THANK YOU VERY MUCH  FOR YOUR GOOD WILL TO HELP !!!

About RESOLVE suggestion on BUMPS: There are not bumps in this case because I am only driving on paved, flat, straight roads, and would swear there are not bumps at all at least in the couple of roads I use to drive here around my house in Dalsbruk, Finland.

The problem happens in 1 second without previous announcing, signals or symptoms. Is like when you suddenly  pull out the electrical cord from the wall outlet: no more tv !

I would like to go from the simple to the complex approach to fix the problem, because I don't feel like ready to disassemble  the carburetor. So I don't know if it is right to start by vacuuming the air filter, to check the gas filter, the gas tank. I guess the "gas lines" are the thin hoses transporting the gas between carburetor and tank. The spark check suggested by ZOMBIE I will sure do.

Please explain to me what is it the CDI/Stator. I am looking at  GOOGLE IMAGES and scooters-wise the only thing I found are those white multiple plastic electrical  connectors. I might be wrong. Please advise.

I also have a lose hose  about 2.5 in diameter that has detached from the crank case. Is clear where it attaches to the crank case but I have been unable to see where the other end connects, without  removing the whole floor.

Greetings to all from Finland,

THANK YOU all for your kind and prompt answers. I had a hospital issue and just came back home today Wednesday. As English is not my mother language I have to put into understandable  language the technicalities I am asked here, mostly from REDUNDANT. The fact is that I have only changed the spark plug once, but I have not touched the carburetor, at all, neither the filter. While running normally lets say 40-50 Kmts per hour it just stops as if the gas were cut off. It does not do it slowly or with engine explosions, neither try to start over again. It just is dead. Then I switch off the key ignition., wait a couple of minutes and then  I open the  key ignition and it starts without problem.

I thank you all for your kind help,

When I am driving my scooter suddenly the engine goes off. I will like to know if this  is an electrical problem or a gas problem. So when this happens what I do is to switch off the key ignition  , wait for a couple of minutes. Then I switch on and it starts inmediately and then I can continue. This might or might not happen always, but it happens. Battery is fully charged, full gas, the scooter is only 3000 kmts. What do you think is  the problem and how can i solve it ?

I will appreciate your insight on this issue.
