i have a peace sports 50cc gy6 clone and it does not like the rain today while driving back from post office it started raining badly i avoided the puddles but it stalled at the light it would restart but not go over idle on the throttle without stalling when i finally pushed it home in the rain ruining my phone too! i sprayed some starter fluid in the intake and it decided to run ok is it possible it just sucked up some water in the intake or is it maybe that vent tube to the top of the carb sucked up some water. it doesn't seem to be electrical in nature. thinking of running some vacuum cleaner hose to a new location for the intake

Bummer, That's a pretty crappy day Do you have the original air box or a free flow filter? You may have just sucked some water in the carb.

it has the stock air box, i am really thinking of running a hose to it and putting it under the seat , i also noticed the carb came loose from the carb so maybe it may be cured? any one have this problem?
