I'd test drive ATV first before making and changes, your carb will let know if it needs to be adjusted.

Jshawd40, The 257cc it what I have in my scoot I think its very important when working and learning on these scoot to know what engine you have, and if there is anyway we can help you, knowing what engine helps us to help you. BTW nice scoot

Congrats on new scoot, sound like you have cover just about everything concerning scoot. Another are that is very important is your vacuum system, check all vacuum lines make sure they are good, and intake clamps are good and tight. I have found out using 10w40 oil (good brand) is all you need. which engine is your, the vertical 244cc or the horizontal 257cc engine?

scooterdave, looked at mine, the problem is that there are couple screws that hold the turning light on, but they're very difficult to get to and to do it right the front has to come off

Welcome to the forum, That's a tough one, If you live close to me I'd come and help you. I had to replace my headlights, so I took the whole front off, which its not hard to do, just time consuming. I'll look at mine and see if there is an easier way to get into it.

With the info, I would say I need to adjust the a/f 1/4 leaner. (I know I act so dumb by times, I should be an expect by now)

that's what meant to said (I didn't know it was called that), I did move the clip and coming to work it acted like it wanted to take off, but about my 6th mile it starting cutting out, should i move my a/f 1/4 turn leaner?

What your pointing too is the filter in front of my variator. The one above it is my air box. I'm refering to the back of the airbox where the drain hose goes out, its missing, I didn't know if it would suck air or not.
