Hey guys! So.... took the battery down to autozone and had them charge it up. Brought it home and guess what? Rosie fired right up! I did have the gas cap off just to make sure. Put her dress back on and rode her around m u community twice with the gas cap tightened in. No hole drilled. Apparently I somehow didn't flood the charcoal canister! Yeah knowing my luck... so hoing to drive her to work tomorrow and see how we do. Thanks so much for the help!!!!

Ohmygoodness! Listen here bub, I know I have to check my blinker fluid and all that bit drilling a hole in my tires...? Wait... do I really need to do that? Poop! Guess I'll have to do today too... ;-) Thanks again for the responses and I will keep you updated on how she fairs. I really hope this works since I got her to help save money on gas. I'm still really nervous taking her on the freeway and don't see myself doing it anytime soon if ever. I suppose I should have done my hw on this scooter a bit better but I didn't think about it. Excitement caught me and she only had 36 miles on her when I got her.

Hi Alleyoop! Thank you for replying. I did in fact try that. Problem is that I've true to start it a few times too many methinks. When I try to hit the start button I'm having some weird sounds. So I am thinking that I'm going to have to jump it to see if it will start. I will try to drill a hole in the cap tomorrow and let you know how it goes! And, man is removing the skins a pain in the rump! I was optimistic that it wouldn't require taking everything off... yeah no. Thank you for keeping this forum going. It means the world to me.

Hey all. Ok so a little background. I have always wanted a scooter, always. I finally was able to get one off craigslist for $750. It's a 2008 Eurospeed 150cc. Automatic transmission. I'm completely in love with it. However, I feel like an idiot. I work on cars and know somewhat what I'm doing but this thing has me going in circles!
I drove my little Rosie about 80 miles round trip last weekend and about 1/4 mile from home it registered needing gas. I thought "that's weird, there should be plenty of gas but I'll stop and get some anyway." Aaaand that's the last time she started. I think I over filled the gas tank and so now she's too full. Yes yes. I pulled the collar back on the pump in order to get more gas. Dumb move I know. I have to do that with my mustang so it was more of a habit thing. So what do I do now?
