2015 agility 50 starts than dies

[Tiro]

Bought a 2015 agility with 300km it's been sitting for 2 years.
Changed the fuel it starts but it dies after 3-4 seconds. The headlight turns on only after it starts and goes off when the bike dies.

1-if it's carbureted, it likely has a clogged slow jet (from sitting for 2 years with ethanol-laced fuel) preventing it from idling.
2-that headlight beam is run off AC current so it only comes on when the alternator is turning (i.e. when the motor is spinning the alternator fast enough to generate AC current).

Remove the carb, remove and clean the jet, making sure you can see light through it when you are done.  The headlight is not a problem.

the jets were all green and blocked. Ended up buying a new carb and all is good.

Thanks for the follow-up.  I was wondering how it turned out.

Everyone likes a happy ending to a scooter story.
