Not sure? I know bolts are 8mm.

John, no scoot at work today, intake getting worse, where are those links?

[Alleyoop]

Richard, nobody can find a Intake like the one that came with the scoot with two vacuum ports. I have gone looking for one like that all over the place and no hits. Get one with one PORT and then put a short piece of hose and connect it to a "Y" then you will have your two Vacuum Connections. It doesn't really need TWO ports on the INTAKE MANIFOLD. A "Y" connector will do you just fine and work sameo sameo.

Alley, the one you showed me, will it work on my scoot? and where do I get those y connections?

[Alleyoop]

Richard,
Compare the bottom of it to the one you have. I found one here that is much cheaper:

Here are Y or T connectors: You can also try your HARDWARE STORE they usually have them.

Hey Alley, with this new intake manifild and a good seal, will I have to adjust the a/f screw? Or leave it alone.

[Alleyoop]

Well if you had adjusted it before when it was leaking you might have to. Because then you were trying to compensate for the leaking. But just put it on and see how it runs, you may have to fine tune the Fuel Ratio Mixture.

Adjust leaner?

[Alleyoop]

Most likely since with the leak you would have had to richen it up, but just give it a shot the way it is. It is colder out now and they need more fuel anyways. And you want to run on the rich side rather than the lean side.
But you won't know until you put it on and see how it starts and runs.

Udate, drove my scoot to work, running great, then if shut off again. Turned out to be a loose intake clamp. fix it got to work, notice carb was not striaght, fix it, but now it doesn't want to start, it runs 1 second and shut off. Any ieads???

[Alleyoop]

When it is running WHAT is it idleing at, it could be idleing to low. To verify that start it up and hold the throttle JUST A TAD open and see if it stays running. If it does then all you need to do is TURN THE IDLE SPEED SCREW CLOCKWISE a tiny bit and get the idle up to around 1800-2000 rpms.

Its idle about 1800RPM'S, I have it on a battery tender at work, checked everything is tight, will try to start scoot soon. (I went out and turned idle up a bit)
