I also have an issue with, it will be running fine and start missing real bad and then come back fine. It started after I was about to run out of gas and filled up at Chubbies, so I'll deal with it until I can refill with known good gas then if it isn't better I need to come up with a theory and attempt to test it.
If my kick starter craps out I'm not worried the Chinese make new ones every day. I have a back up scoot so I can bear a little down time. It's a 150cc posing as a 50cc to throw off Law Enforcement (no tags), it'll hit 60mph and never gives me any trouble. I take it out every once in a while to even the score with upstarts that like do demonstrate superiority.
You ought to see if you can find a WWII style pilot's helmet for Poem. Damn that dog has it made, her legs are tired so she needs to be carried.

The other day it didn't get to 50, but really I feel for you having to deal with 70, I know ya'll aren't used to that. It's going to hit 60 today. It makes me want to go hunting when it starts cooling off. I hope there's a means of keeping the dog in that thing while your riding. Mine is doing something funny now, it won't start with the battery, often times I have to kick start. I guess I can live with it though.

Wow, what a beautiful picture, nice dog too. I have a feeling once you get this carb in it's gonna be the same ole, same ole. But now, if thats the case you've eliminated alot of possibilites, you'll know the fault lies in something you haven't been messing with yet. Why don't you see if one of your neighbors has a jump box or cables. This battery thing is frustrating. We got some more sleet tonite, it's usually not this cold this time of year.

I didn't know chihuahua's couldn't bark. That dog is still fairly young as most of those small dogs live much longer than the larger breeds. I have a freind who has Mastiffs they weigh about 130# and usually don't live to be 8. They also make it look like cows are grazing in your back yard. It sounds like Poem has it made, she's almost got you trained.

Years ago my mother used to date a guy who was into gymnastics he was 40 years old and could do a flip over our hedge. Needless to say, I never mouthed off to him.

If you have a idle screw for low speed adjustment. Change your pilot jet to a 45. Then close the idles screw. That should give you more bottom end.

It's as cold as a witches t*t in a brass bra here in Richmond, for this time of year anyway. I figured you were showing off your dog as the reason for the lapse. Are you going to teach the dog any tricks? How can you claim to be from NY and not be into the Giants? Oh yeah, you're into watching people do gymnastics. I hope Eli Manning doesn't see this, I want him to be at the top of his game when Michael Vick hands him a loss.

I see where the Eagles are going to even the score with the Giants on 11/20.

Make sure the disks are clean (with brake cleaner). Pads can easily be ruined if they're contacted by brake fluid , oil, etc. The fault seems to be a high frequency which makes me think it's not warped disks. Anyway thats the easy fixes. How old is the thing? It may need a master cylinder.

It's a thread on this site, very well done, it may constitute information overload though.

Nice dog, I have a pit and a large beagle. I had a freind accidentally kill his chihuahua with a rocking chair. So the action will pick up tomorrow I expect. You ought to turn the game on it's tied now. Did you get a chance to look at that post on troubleshooting turn signals? You don't need to mess with the flasher a it works on 1 side per the drawing.

Read that post on turn signals. Somebody put alot of work into that. Mine is a little different as it has a 3 position switch ON/OFF/ON the important thing for you is if the flasher works on 1 Side it is good. Then it's either the switch, wire, lamp or ground. I hope it's just the lamp. I bet you never knew changing a lamp could be so complicated. If the lamp doesn't work verify ground, that means you have to pony up for a meter or continuity tester and test light if you don't already have them.

Ugh, my head. I hope you got to see your show last nite, because the game wasn't on. I tried to make the best of it though. One of my friends was riding a Suzuki B King, it was set up for drag racing with a nitrous bottle on it. I think that thing makes close to 200 Hp stock. No telling what he's making when he gives it a shot of nitrous. Anyway that was the baddest thing out there, I saw. I wonder how much money he has in that thing. I need to take a new perspective on what my scooter costs are. It must of rained in St. Louis last nite. Why don't you try to find someone to give you a jump, you need someone to help you control it at first anyway.

Didn't someone famous once say "it is time for the good of the many to out weigh the good of the few". Oh yeah, that's the communist manefesto, nevermind.
