When the weather is colder (40-55 degrees F) my scooter will never stay running when I start it cold. I usually have to start it 2-4 times while its warming up. During this warm up time, If I twist the throttle even a little bit, the scooter will usually die. I've adjusted the idle mixture screw slightly, but that had little effect. Once the scooter is warm at these temperatures, it will idle just fine. Should i increase the pilot jet size? I know from when I cleaned the carb last time that there is not a jet size number on there so I'd have to guess. Does anybody know what the typical stock pilot jet size in on a 150cc gy6? 3 5?

If you suspect condensation may be a contributing factor . . might try adding a little Iso-Heet to the gas.

So changing the pilot jet won't address this issue?
