Alleyoop I change the oil and made sure the fuel line was going in a downward direction. It helped a lot and i feel dumb for not doing that earlier. It still has some issues but im calling it good for the school year. Thanks for all the help! =)

I tried searching for air leaks but i couldnt find any. Im a noob at this stuff so i definitely could have missed some things. I noticed what i believe to be water vapor in a few of the tubes and a breeze. ill attach a picture for better description  |

There isnt really any mods from the stock parts. Ive swapped out the carb. I believe its slightly smaller then the original, but the problems with the scooters stay constant with both stock and new carb. I also have replaces the air filter and the plastic compartment that the filter goes inside(not sure what that's called) with one that is identical to the stock, so i don't think that's the problem either.
The only real modifications ive made besides new fuel/vacuum lines, is the fuel filter. It is slightly larger then the original i believe.
How would i go about fixing or spotting an air leak

Ive tried using a direct flow method by attaching the fuel line directly from the tank to the carb because i was suspicious of the petcock. This didnt help the problem, any suggestions of an alternative method to try? Would the air intake leak be where the air filter connects with the carb you think?

Hello, I have a TaoTao atm50, when I try to accelerate especially from a stop the scooter begins to bog down and be reluctant to accelerate as if the gas isnt making it to the engine. Ive replaces the fuel and vacuum lines, purchased a new carb, changed sparkplug and wire. Also i have noticed that there is some vapor(assuming its gasoline) in the vacuum lines... Ive also attempted to adjust the air/fuel ratio, and did a valve adjustment. Totally stumped please help!!   |
