Questions and answers
My Buddy 50 was winterized then my service person went out of business. The battery was removed and kept on a trickle charge. How do I summerize it? Is it something I can do myself?
To summarize (de-winterize) a GENUINE Buddy 50 after winterization, follow these steps:
1. Charge or Replace the Battery: The battery is under the floor mat. Lift the mat, remove the access panel with a Phillips screwdriver, and check if the battery holds a charge. Replace it if needed.
2. Check and Clean the Carburetor: If the scooter struggles to respond to throttle or shuts off, the carburetor may need cleaning. This involves removing, disassembling, and cleaning the jets. If you're not experienced, it's best to have a professional do it.
3. Inspect Fuel System: Old fuel can cause issues. Drain old gas and refill with fresh fuel. Check for blockages or fuel line issues.
4. Check and Adjust Idle: The idle may need adjustment after storage. Use the idle screw near the carburetor to fine-tune it.
5. Check Tire Pressure and Fluids: Inflate tires to the correct pressure and check gear oil levels.
Yes, you can do this yourself if you have basic mechanical skills. If not, seek help from a scooter mechanic.
