I havent riden my scooter in a few months. I tried to start it today and it will not start? The service dept told me it is an issue with old gas clogging the injectors. It that right? Is there a fix anyone can suggest? How can I fix this myself and avoid paying $300+/- Thanks for your time in advance.

Okay, you tried kicking it, and you made sure the kill switch wasn't switched off? Have you checked that the battery has a charge?
Without any real info, you'll need to charge the battery, drain and replace the fuel, and clean and rebuild the carb.

The motor will run if i manually kick start however will blubber and eventually stall. Will only idle.
The electric ignition will just click.
Located in Orlando, Florida.
I really appreciate your help.

You are pulling the brake when you use the start button?
That won't solve your problem with it not running right, just curious.

Drain the gas, put in fresh, charge or replace the battery, quick spurt of starting fluid in the air box, start it. It may die, but it should eventually run....keep re-bumping the starter to keep gas reaching the carb........ ;D

Sunbeltinc,
First see if the battery cable is lose. The clicking is the starter solenoid, it makes that clicking noise when there is not enough power to start the engine. Use the kick starter to start it, it should start. Put the battery charger on it.

2012 Ruckus fuel injection has no start. I changed the fuel, filter and spark plug. It has spark. Sometimes it will start then shut off. The fuel seems to be pumping fine. I also replaced the injector. Does these injected carbs have jets that maybe clogged. Much help appreciated. Thanks
