...are you reading the plug tip, or the mix ring, ninja?

[wordslinger]

Sort out the oil first



...true that!

The plug tip on the 85 jet was white and ashy

..this issa pic of a oil pump that is indexed wwaayy too far, on hard WOT throttle pull...

..the "V"s should line up in the center...

..this shorted the plug in less than 50 miles...

I'm using motul 700 fully synthetic is that oil ok?
And I just got 4 of the correct spark plugs today
Had a br8hs and I just put in a br8hsa today and now that I figured out the whole air/fuel mix screw and how to adjust it I was thinking about trying the 85 jet again with the right size pilot jet
I never messed with how the oil mixes into the fuel it should still be set to the factory setting
I'll def check it out though
Thanks again for all the help

[wordslinger]

.....the hsa, is a bit longer than the hs...


..it puts your plug's tip further into the head, which can be a good or bad thing...

..i saw a zx that run like sh** witha hs...loved the hsa....


..my 50cc S9 prefers the hs...

I'm using motul 700 fully synthetic is that oil ok?

..ive never used it, but is it specified for use in oil-injected engines?

It says it is, and it's like $12 or $13 for a quart so it better be good for that price
I've used sea foam before to clean out stuff just not all the time
I also just read the other day to not use gas with ethanol in it so i
Filled my tank for the first time today with ethanol free gas though I'm not sure
What the significance is
It's storming really bad so I'll have to see how the new plug runs tomorrow

[wordslinger]

...yeah, ethanol and aluminum aint good friends...

..we have eth added in the winter months around here...

[Like50ninja]

I'm not sure which parts of my scooter are aluminum but I guess since I've been running ethanol in my gas I made a good decision in buying the cast iron 70cc cylinder instead of the alluminom
If i was going to try and install an open air filter instead of my stock box how approx how many jet sizes would I need to increase?

[wordslinger]

...wowww...that's a damned good jet question...


...i'm running my S9lc with a 38 pilot, and a 117 main...


...had a people that liked a oem pilot and a 110 main...


...free-flow air filters, and oem exhaust...

The smart money is on anything over 100. Did you just get the Moutol, or is that what you've been using all along?

[Like50ninja]

Yeah right now I have a 35 pilot and a 90 main but obviously the mix isn't right so I am going to focus on figuring the right mix out with what I have before I go replacing the air box. Someone else said the like 50's where very picky about installing an free flow filter anyway and that I should just stick with the regular box
I've been using it all along, one of my friends that has a scooter suggested it

[zombie]

I have seen it work GREAT in MX bikes, and Jet ski's but I have No experience with it in scoots. I'd double check the pump setting, and take it from there. The HSA's will burn better for you too. Is this a NEW kit? Just installed? I'm tired, and don't want to look backwards..

[wordslinger]

..i think itsa 50...and that's what bugs me so...

..should be spot-on, with oem box and jets...  ..pipe?
