Okay I installed the 115 number Jet and it basically made it worse so the bogging out starts at 30 miles an hour when I got it to where we'd only started at 45 or 50 so am I not getting enough air now
I still need to do the adjustment don't have the air-fuel mixture I need to start over turn it all the way it turned out one and a half times

Really best to look first before you order unless you get a jet kit. Some people change jets for winter riding too. Scooters are a poor choice if you want to ride in snow, The small fat wheels slide all over the place in snow. A better choice would be a 50cc moped with the tall skinny wheels with a knobby type tread. I drive the Honda in the winter mostly as the Lance is super scary then. The Honda is much better balanced. Starts in extreme cold no problems. Drove to work on all Ice one day, it just went. |

Sorry, yes, all stock.
I am getting the 115 jet, I believe I should have a 109 currently, but What do I know?

The washer/washers (because I had a e few one point), didn't help.
I rechecked for vacuum leaks and air leaks from the air filter box to the intake. No leaks. I ordered a 115 jet. I am hoping that is bigger than mine.
I will also take the carburetor further apart and spray choke cleaner down other areas I have not cleaned yet. Use a pipe cleaner or something to safely remove any deposits.
After that It's replace carburetor. I would think.

Some people make adjustments any way...like a tiny washer under the needle. Or several. This is it  |

This Diaphragm needle combination has no adjustments to do this, it is not normal.

Yes, I agree but why? I pulled the diaphragm off. It was OK but the pin just tests in there. Nothing keeps it from moving around.
I have 2 other carbs. Their pins didn't move around like this.
Big question. How do I find a replacement? Do I remove and measure it. The other diaphragms wouldn't fit. Slightly off for diameter.

I had a problem after replacing my head. I forgot to re check the valve clearance, problem solved. My compression was 30 psi.
I corrected the valve clearance 100 psi. Started.
