Exactly! The new piston kits do fit..BUT with even slightly piston porting differences..many on here have an engine that runs worse that it ever did before..so they blame the carb..CDI..plug..ignition coil etc..and never really get it to run properly..
Does this mean this site is only for things like.. "Scoot died won't start".."My battery won't charge".."Will a 34mm carb work on my stock 50 and give better performance".."How do I make a 50cc GY6 go 60 mph?"..and repeated things of that nature.. I was hoping somebody could explain the port differences and what they do..since we know that installing the wrong piston kit has Ill effects on the engine..
