My son uses this scooter at college. He had lost the key last fall so we drove down and“helped” him find it. The weather was getting cooler and not being sure we would find the key (I know, we need to get a spare) I brought down the scooter rack on the back of my truck. We did find the key and when trying to start it it wouldn’t go. So I loaded it up and brought it home. Let it sit for the winter and now trying to get it going. This is what it’s doing...
Outside with temps in the 30’s and 40’s it will not start. Brought it into my heated shop, 67 degrees. And once it warms up it starts like new. Cleaned the carb, tested the enriched/choke and seems to be operating fine. But it does only read 4.7 ohms. From what I’ve read it should read between 10 and 20. Have had it in and out of the shop and it still does the same thing.... starts in the shop and won’t start outside.
Could the enricher be the issue or something else to look for?
Appreciate any help and advice. Thanks.
Edit: Removed the carb again. Question... the small brass port in the float bowl that feeds the enricher.. is the hole the same diameter all the way through? I’m trying to pass cleaning tips through and can only get a very small one to go through. Much smaller than the hole appears on the bowl side.
