WARNING
When checking the fuel system, do
not smoke, and make sure there are
no open flames or sparks in the area,
including pilot lights from water heat-
ers or furnaces. Gasoline or gasoline
vapors can ignite or explode, caus-
ing severe injury or property damage.
EAU25881
TroubleshootingAlthough Yamaha scooters receive a
thorough inspection before shipment
from the factory, trouble may occur dur-
ing operation. Any problem in the fuel,
compression, or ignition systems, for
example, can cause poor starting and
loss of power.
The following troubleshooting charts rep-
resent quick and easy procedures for
checking these vital systems yourself.
However, should your scooter require any
repair, take it to a Yamaha dealer, whose
skilled technicians have the necessary
tools, experience, and know-how to ser-
vice the scooter properly.
Use only genuine Yamaha replacement
parts. Imitation par ts may look like
Yamaha parts, but they are often infe-
rior, have a shorter service life and can
lead to expensive repair bills. Troubleshooting
