Going to work, started to cut out on me, If I back off throttle it recovers itself, may turn the a/f 1/4 turn leaner? I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW COMING TO WORK IT RUNNING GREAT, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT STARTS THIS I'm calm now I was low in gas bottom the red mark, so I don't if that had anything to do with it or a possible vacuum leak somewhere, I just took notice I lost my airbox drain hose, would that do anything?

Alley, It did it when warm, after setting idle, left scoot set a while, she fired right up, then idle will go down 3,000RPM's, I just notice after setting the idle like Bob said, it starts but idle was slow going up.

Move the needle jet clip in middle, ran scooter a long time adjusting idle at 1800-1900RPM'S, when I start scoot it seems to have a low idle, then slowly it goes up to these settings, is that normal?

It seem to speed up when back off throttle, soon as I stop I gave a quick rev and it calmed down, I'll move that clip sometime tonight or when I get home (thanks alleyoop)

Alleyoop, adjust a/f 1/4 leaner last night, start maybe a little better, as I road to work it got worse, trying to cut out and the idle was rougher, (I'd stop and scoot wanted to take off) got to work adjust my a/f to be richer about 1/2 turn, seemed to fix it. Maybe I was running too lean,

Thanks Bob I know I'm all over the place with my adjustments I just notice with my scoot, the idle doesn't seem to react quickly to the adjustment since I've bought is used, I've never totally cleaned the carb jets and all had it off once to adjust float, maybe its about time to clean all. BTW mine is watered cooled also

Thanks Alleyoop, I'll try that. I just notice the idle high pulling in to work and the scooter still seem engaged trying to go after I had it stop.

Got to work, running good, about the only thing I'm having trouble with is the idle, started scoot and idle seem low, adjust idle to about 1800, then it seems to go too high get the red light idle is about 21, at work as it idled, turn down to 1800 again. What could it be?
