Motorcycle Repair: pe wee 50, pee wee 50, oil injection system


Question
hi im wondering why my pee wee 50 questions

when i try to kick start my bike it doesnt give presure until i do it like 4 times why is that is it probably from there is no oil in the motor

Answer
Emun...  The oil in the motor is only for the transmission gears. It is a 2-stroke engine, which has no valves or oil in the crankcase. The only oil is in the oil injection system, which mixes with the gasoline to fuel the motor.

When an engine won't start in one or two kicks, most likely the compression is low and repeated kicking will help build compression up to a point where the engine will fire on its own. Check the condition of the piston/rings. If there is excessive oil fouling of the plug that isn't related to the injection system, then it could be sucking oil in from the transmission seals. Excessive lean running is related to crankshaft seal behind the ignition, if not related to restricted carburetor metering functions due to old gasoline deposits/corrosion.
