One step forward, 2 steps back! Working on a scooter that has been sitting for a few years. Got it started yesterday, but it had a fuel leak. Pulled the carburetor today and cleaned the jets. Got it all back together, and it still had a leak. I stopped it, so that I could get down close to the carburetor as I turned it over. Now, it doesn't turn over at all. Brake lights and turn signals work, but it doesn't even crank. Battery is new, and both battery fuses look ok. Any thoughts? Are there any other fuses that I may be missing? Don't know where to start. Thanks!

Does it sound like the starter is engaging or nothing at all? Does it have a kick start?
Does it roll over if it does?

WEll, I gave up. Had to run some errands, so I came back after about an hour or so, and it fired up right away. Maybe some of the leaked fuel dripped down and caused a temporary short or something....I have no idea, because it wouldn't even click! Good news is it is running, and I managed to find the leak! Thanks for the help!
