Question about testing a 1P39QMB

NiteWolf1138 · 07-02-2014, 05:16 PM

Greetings,

A friend of mine got me a scooter from auction for cheap(I like to tinker), but it looks like it's been a wreck. My question is can I test the engine without the airbox? It got ripped off. I'd like to know if the engine is usable before I invest any time and money.

Also, is there any extra info I can get about the scooter. The name tags are gone. VIN: *LA2TCB0474JF-----*

Thanks

You should be able to run the motor without a airbox, but I would get some form of filter added before doing any real driving.

Any info on the make and model? All the tag plates got torn off in the wreck it looks like.

I have tested my 50cc GY6 without the airbox to rule out a rich fuel symptom. It starts and idles just fine. I run my airbox so dry it probably runs fine under load without it attached :P
