TaoTao 07 watercooled Resurrection

9/14/19
Going to make this a build/resurrection thread

Hello,

Pick this pretty cheap, turn over but won’t idle. First on the menu a carb dissemble and cleaning. The ignition was bypass by PO but everything seems to be there. My main concern is making sure the wiring for the radiator fan is all connected and working.

Thanks,

Nick

It's an '07. Checking the 10th digit of the VIN will give you that for any U.S. compliant VIN (which the Chinese have been known to fudge from time-to-time).

I've had two similar quads where the intake tube made a poor seal at the head. One was because the o-ring was squashed between the flange and the head and the other was because the o-ring groove was cut too deep. It's worth checking.

Anyone have a electrical digram for it? Need to track down a no spark. It cranks but no spark at the plug, it fired up when I picked it. So my guess is a loose wire or bad ground. I’m familiar with how to check stator (ohm) and other electrical on a 110cc, will this be similar?

Does it have a kill switch on the left handlebar that resembles a turn signal switch?

It does, see picture. did come across a bad ground for the spark plug coil. I tried using a GY6 CDI but it killed (now my GY6 ATV wont start, ordered a replacement)

What kind of CDI is this AC or DC?

Depends on the wiring from the ATV. Can you take a picture of the wires that plug into there?

Based on this video its a AC CDI. Turns out my other ATV with a GY6 motor is also AC CDI based on the video. I get no power on the Red & Black wire with ignition on. One thing i forgot to mention the starter swticg works intermittently, maybe thats causing the short and damaging the CDI?

Since i had time to sleep on it, i wasn't aware that theirs a kill switch. I have another ATV with the same switch and theirs no kill switch active on the harness as far as I'm aware.

I don't have a link, but there are a couple of relevant threads on here about the wiring pinouts for them, try disconnecting the wire that gets grounded by the kill switch, if it is indicating that it is grounded (just test it with a voltmeter).
