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

Re: idles then boggs with throttle
