Gy6 150cc autochoke to manual choke conversion

- Some Ruckus gy6 swap harnesses don't have a connection for the auto choke, so it gets removed and the hole filled, or left unplugged, or maybe you just don't want to deal with them failing on your scooter.This allows you to cheaply and easily install a manual choke on your auto enrichment needle (auto choke) on your gy6 150cc engine.
Yeah thanks bro this is great. I'm sick of my electric choke constantly stuffing up the starting process so I'm going to remove it completely and send it to manual like you did
Just did this on my Honda elite 80. Worked great. Before my bike was running way too rich on startup. I threaded the bolt maybe 1 1/4 inch into the choke so its always off. Still starts up cold fine like that
I'm about to do this to my tao tao 72cc bbk build. then next... my ch80. Glad too hear it works well.
3:46 I used this litttle mounting-clip as a stencil for 2 holes on an equally-sized small metal plate, the same size as the 2 holes of the clip.
Then I made an even bigger hole exactly between those 2 small holes, and threaded it.
Then screwed a bolt through that bigger hole, and also screwed the bolt´s end on the e-choke´s needle-stack, that has a piece of plastic at its top-end, with a hole, in which above mentioned bolt could be screwed in (self-forming the threads in the plastic-hole while you screw the bolt in).
My scooter's enrichment won't work. Took carb apart and all passages are clear. Enricher itself does work, it extends with time to close, but idle is just constant at low idle, cold or hot. I made a test flat plate with a gasket to replace the enricher and see if I get a fast idle when cold and idle is always low. You'd figure if the passages were clear from inside the enricher housing to the carb, the fast idle would engage with the flat pate. But it won't. Any ideas ?
That was F***ng AWESOME.
Thanks
Worked for me with way less material kept one spring
Awesome thanks!
I tried twisting mine off but that suckers welded in there
Does one apply heat before attempting to twist it out? My plastics snapped when I tried it cold. I ordered 2 more to experiment and I WILL share my results when successful as failure is NOT an option. LOL
But seriously, will applying heat help loosen things?
I tried my heat gun on high, started melting stuff, still would not release.
I ended up using "Starbond super glue remover" to get it to break loose, possibly acetone or some other solvent might work also. There is a locking sealant in the threads.
I never had a problem with it. Low heat could work, but I would use a rubber mallet or plastic hammer and gently tap around the glue joint a few times
How long of a bolt should be used...?
I believe I used an M8x25
Oh damn, thought dad was the only person in the world that owned thoose crappy screwdrivers. they are so shit, I only use them to pry, as the flatheads are thin af
There's one of those screwdrivers in every box of random parts I own. I keep throwing them away, and they keep showing back up. 🤣
@@bdates1111 lol
yeah they are garbage. I've moved on to quality Wiha precision screwdrivers.
We need to do is get those Good harbor freight tools
Please show complete,,, from, your side
I'll put up another video showing the completed project.
This video was actually made privately for a friend to complete the task. I decided to make it public in case it could help other people, so it's missing some elements I would have added if it was originally intended for the public.
Wtf are you talking about lol
@@bardinkurtis wtf, no ,, i just wanted too see the bolt and 2 nuts,, in the middle,, its cool,i just use my choke and screw the plastic in and out,works ,i cut the side away from electronic, with a sharp knife ,3 turns out,3 back in, cut away ,the plastic in sit,,yeah for my hand too turn the manual choke
@@edwardmoss9647 wat
Also simply unplugging it at the other end will work.
yes, but it will always run a bit rich that way.
No it won't...
@@ljaymaster these electric chokes "grow" pushing the enriching needle to close the circuit. When no current is applied it retracts and again enables the choke. By unplugging there would be no power, so I think it would let fuel flow through the enricher. Mine is stuck closed so I can unplug and not run rich, but only bc the bistarter is broken.
Thanks
