What is a "card" on a PW50? I have one here and have no idea what part you could mean. My guess with the throttle is that you have the cable way too tight. Check that first - it is quite touchy, since the idel is also st with the cable tension on some earlier models.

SOURCE: i have a yamaha pw50, it runs slow when cold &

Most likely a combination of sparkplug heat range (type of plug) and jetting, needle or air mixture settings in the carburetor. Assuming good condition of air filter and operation of the choke plunger. Are you using the correct octane fuel and fuel/oil ratio? Give the plug a clean and emery the spark contacts, set gap at 0.7mm., ideally take the plug to a Yammy dealer and check for correct range for your bike in the area where you ride.
Best to have a range of spare clean plugs handy for wet or hot days etc.
The jetting maybe dirty or wrong size too. In the meantime move the throttle needle clip down one notch. Refer to the site below for a diagram of the carburetor parts. Cheers.

SOURCE: Pw50 starts first time everytime but will not

PW have the stop\start\run switch and will not rev in the start position, there may be a problem in this switch, wire, or the ignition box which controlls this.
The small 50s can also build up carbon in the exhaust port, or the exit end of the muffler.
They also need the original air filter and cover (dont know why, but they wont rev without it).
I realize you may have checked some of these, but not much else goes wrong

PW50 yamaha. It starts, runs but cannot rave.

There could be a few different reasons why your kids PW50 Yamaha can start and run but cannot accelerate or "rave". Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:
  1. Check the air filter: Make sure the air filter is clean and not clogged. A clogged air filter can restrict airflow to the engine, causing a lack of power.
  2. Check the carburetor: Make sure that the carburetor is clean and the jets are not clogged. A clogged carburetor can also restrict airflow to the engine, causing a lack of power.
  3. Check the spark plug: Make sure the spark plug is clean, dry and in good condition. A dirty or worn spark plug can cause a lack of power or no start.
  4. Check the fuel filter: Make sure the fuel filter is clean and not clogged. A clogged fuel filter can restrict fuel flow to the carburetor, causing a lack of power.
  5. Check the exhaust: Make sure the exhaust is not clogged, as this can restrict the engine's ability to breathe and cause a lack of power.
  6. Check the transmission oil: Make sure the transmission oil is at the correct level and not overfilled or contaminated.
  7. Check the drive chain: Make sure the drive chain is not loose or damaged.
It's important to note that these are general steps and the specific procedures may vary depending on the exact model and type of your PW50 Yamaha. It's recommended to consult the user manual or contact the manufacturer for the specific instructions and precautions for your bike. Additionally, it's best to seek professional help if you're not familiar with bike works.

I have a 1983 yamaha pw50 motor that I want to put onto a 2012 frame...what modifications will I need to do?

I have worked at a Yamaha dealer for 15 years the beauty of a yamaha pw50 is it has not changed... for the most part.. it will bolt up. As long as you have the wireing harness/cdi components. Also the throttle cable and throttle may need to be taken from the older bike as well.... keep it easy swap the frame and the frame alone and you'll be ok
