well carb easy to locate just remove the seat and you will see it sat on top of your engine few screws here and there and it will pull out with ease

..rick, down below, in this thread is a link to the A50 service manual..it's not the owners manual, but an in depth service manual with pics,breakdowns of sections...how-tos...it's a MUST HAVE  item...

..the pump is on the side on the carb with the throttle cable..a thin steel striker must actuate the pump stem during throttle twist...check that too..may have beed dispositioned...

oh i know wheres the carb but not the accelerator pump

Many things to try, one thing at a time, hope your scoot doesnt die!

Duh wasnt even thinking carb problem....I would still adjust valves to be on the safe side the stock setting is .004 for both valves and you will need a feeler gauge to adjust.  The link to the manual is on page one of the thread and will tell you whatever you need to know

[Dark13]

you mean .04mm not .004

.04mm is .001575 inches

[Kimcofan]

yes i meant 0.04 my bad thanks for catching my typo...world of difference

Well i got it working.. removed the whole carb and did a full clean up.. as well as changed the rollers.. its working alot better now..

also i had the chance to play with the CDI and now its doing 40mph  .. next step will be a new jet and airfilter.. Any ideas on the set up?

used scoots  ( clean everything) gas line. carb .filter . air lines . everything you can thing of.you might fix it and not know it. a clean scoot is a happy scoot. I would say valve job too. and even oil up the throtle cable it may be sticking. and new plug.

4.7g rollers, with K&N air filter should do the trick.

..Glad to hear you got her runnin'!!...what did you do with your cdi?...

I would still follow up w/ a good cleaning of the carb. Trash that has dried on the inside of the tank will take a few refills to dissolve/loosen, and make its way out.

You guys run premium through your tank and If I were to would there be any downsides to doing this?
I have been considering going to 89 and if I do I would like to keep using it since Im not filling a 15 gallon tank.
