Side note:25sec of 1600rpm the drops to a grand and "peddling it" to kinda hold around 2k. Also, 24mph @5400rpm. No tranny hiccups during this run.

No sooner was the oil change complete, a transmission "hiccup" emerged. It idles at 14 to 1600. At 2700 a " no throttle " event occurred. Meaning, increased gas saw RPMs increase on the tach, but not audibly, it sounds like "flooding" about to happen. It recovers then, a road bump sets it off again. I've not looked into any maintenance on the CVT! 1. WHAT should I be, AND NOT be seeing? 2. It ran well in 80° or less heat but noticed the changes in heat above 86°and dew points above 62°. In 89° sun, I'd already got hip to it, and would pull over to let it"catch up". That allowed longer, 200-300ft runs.

I took it for a "Hot Lap" to check my work and it went from a whisper to a scream! I know that sound! The motor assisted bike did the same thing! So i coasted it back into the Batcave and found the exhaust vibrated loose. BUT, it had only one, huge-arse acorn nut on it! An easy fix! Now, after multiple floodings,that oil has got to be toast?! Recommendation for oil change choice?? It's has 862 miles on it.

Happy to report the "215t" is up and running! Following your instructional insights, I merely moved the float tang 1mm+/-and changed the gas I was using to some fresh stuff! It idles at 1400rpms +/-! Great help and Thank You Again!

Stuck, like in the open position? I saw no evidence of that and tested it with your tube on the fuel inlet test. For further insurance I bent the float tang in accordance to your tech page diagram. (Very helpful stuff over there!) Possible tad to much.

Brand new to the group! A "free"scooter came my way, and now I know why! Leaked fuel from the carb. Bought a new one,and it leaks into the air box and from the top air vent tube. I drain the carb bowl,check the plug and try it again. Same results. It will start and run for 45sec.to a minute and a half then starts purging excess from the above mentioned areas. Plug isn't wet, but " sooty". I'm accustom to Chinese motors. I run a motorized bike. This is the QMB139,50cc unit. May I have a direction that I can chase down?!! Thank you kindly!
