Everybody is really helping and doing great.Let me say thanks in advance .Know last Sat I noticed that the air filter was turned up side down .I thought .Just by the way it looked and fit in the case .It is a small round element .One end has a hole about the size of a lemon ,my fist will fit in the other end .It had the small end facing down and the big end up facing to the top of the housing.So I thought with the small end on the bottom that it would resist air so I turned it over so the big end is facing down.I also replaced the variator the old one had a weight missing ,but I had the bog before I replaced it .When I pull out on my street my scoot takes a small amount of throttle ,then when I give it more throttle it bogs down and I have to weight and weight on the speed to increase .When I got it 2 weeks ago it ran good and had power

I tried to adjust it the best I could Alley.After making the adjustment it sure does crank a lot easier .I forgot to add that the spark plug was real white when I took it out to replace it .

Well I got the carb off today .It was spot less.I also got the seafoam as advised .I added 2 oz per as label said .I also added the new NGK spark plug .I noticed when I was in the carb the jet was stamped #103 .I rode my scooter home from the shop about 4 blocks .It was in the 30's and spitting snow .Is it possible with that size jet that my scoot is running with to lean at those colder temps ?I still have the factory air filter ,but I do not think the exhaust is factory .It has ok take of , but at a very mild throttle it just bogs .I also found some more vacuum lines that needed replacing .I got that took care of to .Does any one have any comments for what would be next ?

I have had my scooter since last Thursday .I have repaired a exhaust leak ,fixed the charging .Know a week later it is is not running the best .When I got it was setting on the gentleman's porch .I have no ideal when it was last started .He said he just rode his g/children around in the yard with it .So it has not seen any blacktop in a while I think .Every since I got it I have put several miles a day on it .The only thing that I can think of is that the choke was unplugged which I plugged back up .I think there was some trash in the tank or the carb bowl that has worked its way to the jets.I put 93 octane in it when I filled it up .I plain on cleaning the carb this weekend .It was real peppy when I got it .It bogs quiet a bit know .Does any have any comments that might help me ?

Does anyone know which I have ? How hard will it be to replace the studs ?

Well I am moving on my way to getting my scooter just the way I want it ,but the tach does not work . My question is ,does the signal for the tach come from the stator trigger or the cdi unit ?Is there any testing that will help me find my problem ?This little used scooter will be so much fun this summer when I get all these little fixes done .
