I understand your frustration with your TVS Jupiter having starting and stalling
issues. While a good battery is important, other factors can also contribute to these
problems. Here are some things you can check and possible solutions:

**Starting after 2-3 tries:**

* **Spark plug:** Check for worn-out or fouled spark plugs. Replace them if needed.
* **Ignition coil:** A weak ignition coil can lead to weak spark. Have it checked by a
mechanic.
* **Carburetor:** A dirty or clogged carburetor can affect fuel mixture and starting.
Get it cleaned by a mechanic.
* **Choke:** Ensure the choke is operating properly, especially in cold weather.
* **Starter motor:** A faulty starter motor might not crank the engine efficiently.

**Stalling during the journey:**

* **Fuel system:** Check for clogged fuel filter, dirty carburetor, or vacuum leaks.
These can affect fuel flow and engine performance.
* **Sensor issues:** Faulty sensors like the oxygen sensor or throttle position sensor
can send incorrect information to the ECU, leading to stalling.
* **Clutch problems:** A worn-out clutch can cause power loss and stalling.
* **Air filter:** A clogged air filter can restrict airflow and cause the engine to
stall.
* **Spark plug:** As mentioned earlier, faulty spark plugs can also cause stalling.

**Here's what you can do:**

1. **Check the owner's manual:** Refer to the manual for specific troubleshooting
steps and maintenance recommendations.
2. **Perform basic checks:** Check the fuel level, oil level, and tire pressure.
Ensure the spark plug cap is secure.
3. **Clean the air filter:** A dirty air filter can easily be cleaned or replaced.
4. **Try kickstarting:** If the electric starter isn't working, try kickstarting the
scooter to see if it's a battery issue.
5. **Seek professional help:** If the problem persists, it's best to consult a
qualified mechanic who can diagnose the issue and recommend appropriate repairs.

Remember, attempting complex repairs yourself without proper knowledge or tools can
worsen the problem.

**Additional tips:**

* Use high-quality fuel from reputable sources.


* Regularly service your scooter as per the manufacturer's recommendations.
* Avoid overloading your scooter.
* Pay attention to any warning lights or messages on the instrument cluster.
Hopefully, these suggestions help you identify and resolve the issues with your TVS
Jupiter. Good luck!
