dang... i cant get it running how it was yesterday!

im back to when i go WOT it starts to bog out

and when the motor tries to rev down, the back wheel keeps turning, does that mean i have the idle way too high?

booo

how many turns out should my throttle stop screw be? service manual simply says adjust screw to 1800rpm - i dont have a tach to hook up, is there a gue-stimate?

ok well after getting the carb back on and filled she started right up..... it was really weird... but now i have to try and re-tune it.... boo....

wait ru trying to remove the tube w/ holes in it that is under your main jet? u have to take off ur air idle screw thingie for it to fall out

im going to assume your own personal limited knowledge led to your sharp response. sooooo what should i do!?!? dont just call me a dork, tell me how to be cool! hah... I have seen a couple scooters on here running off of air breathers as i described.

First off let me say that this website rules! I was so relieved to find such a place exists, and I wouldnt have gotten this far already if it wasnt for the wonderful guides/tools/members previous posts. Sooo.... I picked up this 84 spree off craigslist for $300, she is in great shape, has all the co...
