Not idling so good anymore, and other stuff.  By  jdmsoldier (Read 1,227 times)

I first bought my scooter used a few weeks ago. The previous owner just had it tuned up and showed me the receipt with all the stuff did to it, like carb clean, oil change, etc.

So, it was idling ok the first few times I rode it, but the past couple
days I have to hit the electric start and give it gas anywhere from
3-5 time (when it is the first start of the day) but not a problem
after Ive rode it and warmed it up a little, but it still stalls out
after less than a minute when Im at traffic stops, but when I
see green I push the e-start and give it a little gas and she
starts right up.

Also I did not put in gas since I bought it till yesterday, and noticed
that the fuel gauge did not change since. Since I bought it, it always
showed 2 bars just above E. Yesterday I put $3 (premium unleaded)
and got stopped at $2.58.

Any idea what's causing the idling issue, and should I be worried about it? The fuel gauge is more of a worry for me, more than
the idling issue being a nuisance. cause I don't want to be
wasting time at gas stations and over topping off my gas
to get partial refund every time, and also I don't want to
run out of gas accidentally.

Also the seat trunk is a real pain to lock and close. Every time I open it, it takes about a minute of messing around just to get it closed properly again. Any advice on that? thanks.
