Most scooters need a minimum of 100 psi in compression in order to run start and properly. Compression should be checked when the scooter engine is warm. However, that's hard to do if your scooter is not running. So, just hook up a compression gauge and open up the throttle all the way. Crank the scooter until the needle on the compression gauge stops moving. This should take no more than 5 seconds. Very roughly, 100-125 psi is good, 125-150 psi is very good, and 150+ psi is great. If you don't have this level of compression, then you have bad valves and/or bad piston rings. If you want, you can add a teaspoon or so of oil to the engine through the spark plug hole. Then try the compression test again. If compression is higher, then it's likely you have bad rings. The oil will seal the rings and give you better compression. If compression is the same, then you have bad/misadjusted valves.

So let's take a look at some safety ideas. Wear a helmet, knee and elbow pads. Children under the age of 12 should not ride motorized scooters. Avoid heavy traffic at all costs. Don't ride at night. If you have to ride at night, be sure you have a good headlight and a taillight as well as side reflectors. Wear sturdy shoes that have a good sole on them. If your helmet doesn't have a face shield, invest in a good pair of goggles are safety glasses. Avoid gravel or uneven roads. Know the local laws. Have insurance. Take a class on scooter safety. Many States provide these free of charge.

Run at least a pint of gas through to help flush the system. If you don't get a flow then it's likely your petcock is clogged. You have to remove it before you can disassemble and clean it. Carefully reinstall it on the gas tank or you could get a gas leak. Reassemble everything and try to start the scooter. It will take several seconds of cranking to get the gas to work its way from the gas tank to the carburetor.
