Is this a 2 stroke? The bpr5es might be the wrong spark plug.

That defiantly is the wrong plug. It seems like you have a few problems going on. From the oil in the CVT cover, you most likely have a leaking crank seal. If it's bad, it could really cause problems. Start by working through the no start guide here. 49ccscoot.proboards.com/thread/647?page=1 |

Welcome ivri,
Looks like a lot of things going on with that. The prior owner left you a great learning opportunity. Pictures of some engine views might help everyone to offer some more advise.
A few things jumped at me:
*Why three failed rectifiers? All old?
*The air box will be a help in tuning...after you reseal those holes. Holes do not allow in more air, they lower the box pressure, which is less air.
Clean everything you can before attempting to spend money. You will be glad you did. Any oil and dirt can only hurt your troubleshooting.
*ignition misfiring? After cleaning the ignition pick up sensor...usually inside the alternator cover...also called a crank pick up or other names...then check to see if it is set properly...or maybe has a short.
Much to learn, but you might have a rough diamond...or maybe a shop towel holder. Time will tell.

does anyone know of a diy method to make a swivel to my KICK-START LEVER for my 50cc thyphoon that's the only thing stopping me from troubleshooting at the moment.  |
