Re: decarbonizing exhaust
cool thanks for the replies guys. i ended up cutting out the back side of it so it was nice and easy to weld back together. suprisingly this scoot has been properly jetted and running well all of its 22 years cuz the exhaust had almost no build up in it! i was pretty pumped in a way..kinda was hopin...

Re: idles then boggs with throttle
cool ya on the elite the inside bolt is also longer like you were saying. im hoping by tappin that out and gettin it to snug tightly that will fix my bogg issue. im going to try to clean the carb one more time anyway since it will b off. i keep hearing about the pilot hole but after looking my carb ...

Re: idles then boggs with throttle
Greetings: A loose carb mount is not a minor problem! :nervous: This needs to be addressed before you attempt to run it. Even if it will idle, your engine's inhaling an extremely lean mixture.

Re: idles then boggs with throttle
just replaced with stock gears. so no change there. i guess its got to be that stripped bolt. just seems wierd tho. if its up on the stand it will idle and the rear wheel is turning some..never did this before i dont think. even at a basic idle. you give it some throttle on the stand and it will get...

Re: idles then boggs with throttle
nope didnt have the variator off this time... last time before i redid the backend i put a new keli variator in and it helped acceleration/top speed alot..then this time i took the clutch off, and obviously the final drive cover to do the gears. but it has got to be in the carburetor,,i will try blo...
