Have had this scooter for a year and have been fixing things here and there, and want to correct the lag in the acceleration. When I put on the throttle, it struggles to gain speed until around 15 MPH, which sucks when I get stopped at a red light. Any suggestions? ive tried to put a tiny bit of sea foam in the gas every third tank, but isn't doing anything. Any and all suggestions appreciated! Attachments:

cool Get to it now. Also a tiny bit of sea foam will do nothing but waste a tiny bit of seafoam. Read the can it wants in excess of 2 oz per gallon for 2 stroke cleaning. I used like 4 oz with decent results. That was for the fuel tank though sea foam is no substitute for an actual cleaning which you may need if the bike has sat a lot
