Sounds like your starter motor is on its way out or the battery doesnt have enough amperage to support the starters need for power to produce proper torque when spinning....................
Troubleshooting the x6
1 - 20 of 55 Posts
today i got down and re-wired the pushstar with the diagram you posted in another thread, worked magnificantly, im not one for wiring diagnostics but your quick and easy diagram made it, well, quick and easy:thumbsup:,now how do i wire up the speedo? i probed each wire (all five, 1 for +, 2 for -, 3 for left blinker, 4 for right blinker, and 5 for headlight hi beam i believe.) how do i get the speedo to register? i dont care about the other stuff im gonna mount a bicycle led so my kids can see when riding up and down the street, thanks in advance for the help
.
Also being that i stripped and re-wired the x6, what do i do with the wire plug coming from the stator cvt side? does this have anything to do with the speedo?IMG_20121105_150136.jpg

That two wire harness coming from the fancase on the CVT side needs a killswitch attached to it.....seeings youre using the e-starter button you can use the solid green and black wire w/white stripe on the keyswitch...today i got down and re-wired the pushstar with the diagram you posted in another thread, worked magnificantly, im not one for wiring diagnostics but your quick and easy diagram made it, well, quick and easy:thumbsup:,now how do i wire up the speedo? i probed each wire (all five, 1 for +, 2 for -, 3 for left blinker, 4 for right blinker, and 5 for headlight hi beam i believe.) how do i get the speedo to register? i dont care about the other stuff im gonna mount a bicycle led so my kids can see when riding up and down the street, thanks in advance for the help

Those speedometers are crap and arent too accurate at all.....Youre better off getting a digital $20 Cateye Velo5 speedometer and hooking it up......
:thumbsup:thanks cam2 i will look them up and see what i can find, is the steel on the x6 frame expensive.
No...Its cheap steel.....It costed me $22 bux in steel to build this and had enough left over to remodel a cag into a trellis frame design.........

:thumbsup: Wow cam that is one sick *** rc, and i think i found the color im gonna spray my frame when i tear it all down lol that blue is sick, im still workin on gettin it running, got a rebuild kit for the walbro wt275 the diagfram was all dried up as well as the rest of the gaskets, the toggle switch was left on over night so i drained the battery, what is a good ratio i should begin with, the x6 was in a garage for quite a looooong time, the tank was trash, it split where the factory molded it so im using a water bottle and some aquarium filter hose to feed the carb and test starts. Yesterday i bought some oil [40:1] is that fine? Also i have to hunt down a pullstarter, can i use a weedeater or chainsaw pullstarter, because there is a toro lawn shop by me and that is where i got the rebuild kit,dont feel like ordering ebay, risky business with them you knowmarcelo. Oh yea thanks for the info on the steel as well as all the great help you have been:thumbsup:.

40:1 is good...You can get a pullstarter from BigMotorSport in canada...19.99 shipped to the USA fast......If you buy from someone with a good feedback and pay via paypal youre covered.........I buy pocketbike stuff off ebay all the time and havent been burned yet...unlike some websites Ive been referred to......
To keep the carb good after the rebuild use some CRC ethanol stabilizer in the fuel too......

The perfect carb for that engine is a Walbro WT-813 on an alum manifold on a ported head, w/ boost fitting and bottle. Lite flyw, rocket key and big belly exhaust.
