Sh2 22 start problems

Postby dvmadd4 » Sun Oct 14, 2018 3:50 pm

Just rebuilt a mildly tuned gp 200 engine fitting a standard scootopia 22mm carb I'm having the same problems as this thread ..https://www.scooterotica.org/forum/view ... hp?t=36474 mine's starts first kick from newly cleaned carb then progressively gets worse the more times start it as in it starts to bog down after riding it won't start at all unless you remove filter including the rubber hose ...it won't even start with the rubber hose and no air filter ....remove them both starts first time ...never come across this before I even went back to a 118 main jet still the same

more likely you're pilot jet, rather than main......what is your jetting/carb' spec' ?

Why Scootopia put a 50 pilot jet in is beyond me, especially when they fit a 118 main jet

Keep trying dropping the main - my Lince would not start well with a 123 or 118 with the filter on and would start fine with the hose off - was much better with 112 and Ok on 115 so left it there with the hose on.

I know this is somewhat counter intuitive but I'm almost sure the fuel must draw up thru the main to get to the pilot in the SH carb.

My experience is that I found the standard Scootopia supplied idle jet is labelled as a "50" but when I used a carb jet measurement tool, the hole is actually the same as a 45 Dellorto. Weird.
