Scoot won't start - Page 4

this is all a great read and finally a solution.. but the can of worms is now opened...

I don't know anything, but how is your starter all filled with oil unless you already have some type of serious oil leak that should be addressed as it could/will be a fatal problem eventually?

Your a day late and a scoot short(HAHA), just a bump in the road as they say. It was nothing really, run into this sort of thing all the time some really get nasty using all kinds of dirty words. So your out of luck no BIRD DOG FEE.

The seal on the Starter is shot that is why it filled up with oil.

Well I put the new starter in last Saturday and it fired up like a champ. I love it when a plan comes together! Yes, I saw in the youtube video that the seal on the starter wears down and over time oil gets into it. This must have been happening for a while because sometimes it would take a few cranks to get it started, then it stopped cranking totally. When I fired up the bike with the new starter in it, I couldn't believe it. It started so fast, something I've never seen before. Unfortunately there's snow outside so I can't ride it now, but as soon as I have the opportunity I'll have it on the road. Thanks for all the help guys!

I am new to this site, so I am sorry to interupt your thread. I Don't know how to start a new one.
I have a 2008 Jonway 250. It was running fine then I shut it off now it turns over slowly at best. The engine turns over fine with a wrench. Does anyone have a clue? I will try to figure out how to start my own thread with more details.

Sounds like a dead battery did you try charging it...?
