Hey all I didn't know where to post this tip in regards to carburetor.
So the camping season started and wanted to bring my 150cc scooter with me but it has been sitting and know it starts but when trying to accelerate it bogs down and dies so it was time to remove carb and clean jets and float. Meanwhile I see something on YouTube in cleaning carb by using an air compressor and feeding air through the intake fuel lines..huh thought about it and have it a try...injected air in fuel line now I was thinking if the float and inlet valve was stuck then this air trick should work but if pilot jet clogged maybe not.
So I tried it and within 2 minutes my scooter was running great without removing carb.
Just wanted to pass this in case your GENERATOR seems to have carburetor fuel issues and can be a quick fix, I also have a trail 110 where it has been sitting and did this air compressor trick and trail 110 has been running great.
Sorry post was long but beats having to remove the carb to clean .
