actually, it was a combo of several diffrent things, the a/f mixture screw was turned out WAY too far, leaned it out a bit and the stator drive shaft has the teeth grinded down... only a 4 hour fix now it runs like a champ! thanks again!

well there is no ground from the valve cover to the frame at all! there is one from the tank to the frame, and this is a rebuilt motor prior to me buying it. no new parts since i bought it minus a tire. no multi meter on hand. will get one tommrrow and test those, will get back to you when i test them... what should i be testing for exactly?

hi! i am new to this board, and i am kinda new to scooter repair as well. I have a major issue with a 2008 ktmmx 150cc racer scooter where it just idols rough all the time. even on throttle it just has a hard time getting up to speed. it acts like it is not receiving enough air. when i pull the vacuum line of the manifold, it idols up, but does not fix the problem. i have adjusted the valves, replaced the cdi, replaced the spark plug and wire, new carb, new choke, but all still to no avail! i have also checked the a/f mixture, and checked exhaust thoroughly, along with vacuum lines. checked fuel filter, and gaskets throughout. please help me! as i am lost, and so is my mechanic! he has over 25 years in this field!
thank you in advance for any and all help you might be able to give me! here is a short video of what it is doing.
