Vino 49cc 2002 YJ50RP Carb

[alltagstod]

MY Vino 2002 which has about 1800 miles is stalling out and then having trouble starting back up, after a few seconds of idle it stalls out, it started with just stalling at stops and has gotten worse over the past couple days. I got some SeaFoam, but I'm not sure where to put it at all, I'm not familiar with this stuff at all but cannot afford to get it serviced, please help!

I'm pretty sure you spray the seafoam right into the throat of the carb (remove airbox cover). I've never used it, so wait for some better advice.

Are you riding the bike regularly, and this issue popped up? Or did you just pull it out of winter storage?

Blackbomber:

I bought the Vino about a month ago, I had been riding it every day until this started happening less than a week ago.

Lol, I'm not even sure where the airbox cover is on this thing, like I said I'm clueless here. I was thinking of just pouring it into the gas tank if I can't figure anything else out on it.

First thing I would do is check the level of your two stroke lube - don't rely on the light.

Install a fresh plug.

If you have been riding it every day, and the issue is carburetion, it's likely that some debris got sucked in through the fuel supply, or a faulty air cleaner. At that point, a manual disassembly and cleaning of the carb will do more than a chemical cleaner will.

I did a quick google on Seafoam. Seems like it's the new Marvel. It goes anywhere, and solves anything. Refer to their instructions, but I wouldn't put it in your oil tank on a two stroke.
