Answer by Nick
You cannot jumpstart an automatic moped
If it doesnt have a kickstart heres your options:

Find a mechanic who can charge your battery or buy a new one

Take off the variator cover and use a drill with the socket spanner attachment and drill the variator untill it starts.

My advise would be to just buy another battery as the mechanics is likely to be quite far from your house!

I have a Yamaha Zuma scooter with a sticking throttle. Help!?

Zuma Scooter question by Matthew A: I have a Yamaha Zuma scooter with a sticking throttle. Help!?
My scooter/moped is about 2 years old and has about 3800 miles on it. It was sticking last fall when I put it up for the winter so I took it apart the other day & lubed the cable (both at the handlebar & at the carb.) It only seems to stick when I’ve been riding it for at least 5 to 10 miles wide-open-throttle. I always run wot because I want to get all the speed that I can out of it. When it sticks, I can’t turn the throttle down/forward without working it back & forth & kinda forcing it forward. It doesn’t seem to stick unless I run wide open throttle. I can’t afford to have it serviced right now & would really appreciate it if someone can help me figure out what’s wrong with it. Thanks

If your cable is running free, and there are NO frayed parts on the inner cable, then take the top off the carb, and move the needle down one notch!
