I just got my 2013 super 8 150 with 4K miles. I am having major problems with the auto choke. If I remove the choke from the carb and place my thumb over the hole ,  the engine runs great. The moment the auto choke goes back in place the engine would not accelerate.
I am looking for a manual choke kit

All this talk about wrong wiring is irrelevant. The auto choke is heated with a coil that doesn't care which way round the wires are connected. If you are having a problem with the auto choke it is either that the choke is stuck or broken or else no power to it at all.

Regarding the auto choke - not sure if you guys are aware - but it doesn't matter which way round the wires connect to the choke as it is just a heater coil - and it works either way round. If there is a problem with the choke then it is either the choke itself needs replacing or else check that it is getting 12v power on the leads.

Good point, but the guy might have solved it after nine years.
Happy and safe scootering, Ruffus

Had fun with the "remove" button here today.
If you didn't see it - you've missed nothing important, or adult.
