When it does this the next time pay attention when it boggs, back off throttle 1/8 or 1/4, if it surges forward your lean, if it settles down or recovers itself it too rich.

Not to long ago I replace my intake manifold and been adjusting a/f ratio screw and it seem to be work but we are back to hard starts like it can't get gas and even when warmed up it take some cranking to start (enticher is good) the othe day clean air filter because it chokes and shuts off and the air filter was soak with rain, that seem to work for a day, today backing off throttle it boggs and shuts off, then it takes forever to start, tonight I going to replace fuel filter see if that's it, but I thinkling carb or fuel pump? Any Ideas??

Learae, your right I know there is no easy way out, I need to take this carb off and clean it good. I do use sea foam and berrymens by times, I got my 250cc roketa in 2010, only had the carb off to adjust the float so its way overdue to be cleaned, glad you got a scoot free, I'm like you, I like a challenge, I enjoy working on my scoot and hope to have a little scooter shop in the future.

I'd check your vacuum lines and intake clamps for leaks and air filter, mine was choke yesterday after I has adjusted a/f ratio screw, turned out to be my air filter soaked with rain water.

I'm just thinking about cleaning the carb someday, it's never beed clean the right way since I goy scoot, only thing I did was adjust float and clean the inside. Is there a cleaner that would get to all those areas without taking carb off?

Hey Alleyoop, I have a question, when taking carb off and giving a good cleaning, does that effect the fuel ratio settings?

If you check out the variator, also check the clutch area.

Took scoot out for test run, mid-range and up good but slowing down going around a turn it stalled out and low range seems to surging forward I guess turn the a/f richer, so I didn't bring it to work

Well, went home last night from work, moved that clip, this morning it took a couple cranks to get it started, only 23 here after start up RPM's climb as scoot warmed up, then when they drop, they really drop it was like I had to keep rev up to keep it from stall, so I did turn my idle up about three times, shut scoot off and came back about a i/2 hour and it did start up and RPM'S were about 2200 and it seemed to run good, haven't test drove it yet. Plus going home last night I couldn't get it above 50 because it would start acting up

That what I thought also, (thanks) I didn't want to mess with the a/f, my scoot has been firing first crank (even cold).

Hey Alleyoop, Looking at the info about test for lean or rich, I was coming to work going 60MPH (according to my speedodetor, when I had cutting out back off and it surges ahead, which I know that mean it running lean, the info said mid-range move needle, so my question is shouldf I move the needle or adjust my a/f screw?
