Bad Auto bystarter - Where to buy?

[Jim Moore]

Hi Guys,

it seems like the electric choke (auto bystarter) on my A125 is going bad. The bikes starts OK, but the idle stays high and doesn't come down as the engine warms up. I see a bunch of different ones for sale on eBay. Anyone got a link to one that will work for me?

Thanks,

Wish I could help, but its been a long journey learning the nuts and bolts of servicing my scooter.

Good luck with it.

Any luck finding your part?  If not, try scrappydogscooter.com.  Their generic diaphragm fit my carb just fine, the price was low and they got the order to me fast.  They are in Las Vegas, so you may have better luck with a parts house closer to you.

I found one on ebay from Taiwan for $22 that was advertised as being for the Agility 125. I'll let you know after I get it installed.

HI guys,

I ended up buying this auto choke from Taiwan for $22. The pictures looked just like the $5 parts, but it was labeled as being for the A125. It took about two weeks to arrive. It looks exactly like my old one, down to the color of the connector. The install was pretty straightforward. A little hard to get to, but pretty straightforward. It seems to have fixed my problem.

Interestingly, it didn't completely fix my problem until I replaced the rectifier, which was also going bad. The new auto choke worked better, but not perfectly. It works correctly now, with the new rectifier installed. My thought is that the bad rectifier wasn't giving the auto choke enough voltage to heat up completely.
