How to start and shut down a Mobylette moped
A 1970 vintage Motobecane Mobylette AV89 moped was used for this video, and the starting and engine shut down principles are essentially the same across all the Mobylette moped models.
The three starting methods are:
The preferred method. With the choke lever selected if necessary if it's a cold day, and a hard kick down on the pedal, whilst moving the decompressor action at the twist grip forward. Then move the twist grip backwards for engine throttle control.
This can be done when the engine is not too cold, and has been started fairly recently.
"Pedal and Pop" method. When the engine is cold and hasn't been used for some time, again with the choke and the decompressor selected. Then use engine throttle.
"Running Start" or "Bump Start" Used when the Mobylette is difficult to start, or the engine is very cold. As before, the choke and decompressor is used.
When you want to shut down the Moby engine, just move the decompressor action on the twist grip forward, and the engine shuts down.
If you're not going to use the moby for some time, it's a good idea to shut off the fuel using the petcock/fuel tap first, and let the engine use up the remaining fuel left in the carburettor. It will take about a minute or two to use up the remaining fuel. This prevents carburettor leaking, and fuel going off with time inside the carburettor, if the Moby is stored up for a while. The Gurtner carburettors can have a bit of a reputation for leaking sometimes! and this action prevents this.
Hope you have fun starting and riding your Mobylette!
