Kymco People 50 Many Problems!
« on: May 14, 2014, 06:31:55 PM »
My kymco people 50 moped runs fine when it is on a stand but when you take it off the stand and ride it it bogs and almost and position on the throttle but sometime is dosent and runs fine at wot it bogs and won't move. What is the deal. Carb is clean but air filter is off. Could that be the issue getting to much air? And also it does not go fast at all mainly because of the carb issues stated above. And also it dosent want to start well in the cold I have to kick it rapidly for it to start and even then I try to give it gas and it bogs and dies then I do it again a couple times and then it will run. And also the speedometer dosent work and the fuel gauge and the clock dosent work how do I fix those also? I've heard the exhaust could be clogged giving it less speed?

My Kymco People 50 is impossible to run without the air cleaner fitted. If I so much as touch the throttel the engine stops.
When my speedo stopped working the inner wire in the speedo Cable was broken down by the front wheel hub and the clock runs on a separate clock battery behind the dash that perhaps needs replacing.

Sounds like you are not getting enough gas.

They won't run without the air box.

You can make them run w/o the box but it is not worth the effort.

If you don't have it get one on FleaBay. Or get some up jets, and an open filter. Or get a a 20mm carb, and filter that is already jetted, and an open air filter for like 30.00 bucks.

That will get you 2-3MPH.
