gas scooter exhaust
Many gas scooter owners think the best thing they can do for their scooter is to start it up every few days during the winter. This is actually a bad idea rather than a good one. Why?
Starting our scooters in the winter causes more problems than it solves if it is not allowed to warm up enough to dry out ALL the moisture throughout the system. That water (aka condensation) is not good for the inside of our engines and exhaust systems. Want a visual reminder? Notice the exhaust pipes on our cars while they are warming up in the winter and you'll get an idea of all that moisture inside of gas motor systems. It is better to not run the scooter in the winter months but simply wait till spring. This will help you stop from having to replace tons of gas scooter parts each spring.
A second Winterization trick is to simply put a battery tender on it and leave it alone until/unless we can take it out for a several mile drive. Once we bring it out in the spring, plan a 5-10 mile drive that will dry out all the moisture that may have gathered during the winter. Batteries are the #1 gas scooter part that many of us have to replace 1-2 times a year. This step will save us from that expense.
The third step is to take the scooter in-doors if possible. These Chinese / Korean / Taiwan scooters don’t like the cold USA winters. If you don’t have the ability to store it indoors, buy a scooter cover for it and tie the cover down. This simple step will save 5-20 degrees off the frigid cold, especially on our electrical components, like the CDI and Stator. Replacing these gas scooter parts can be expensive, so covering our scooters or taking them indoors will keep our expenses to a minimum.
These simple steps will assist us in having scooters that start next spring, rather than waking up to multiple scooter problems.
