Okay so still really new to the scooter game and I am loving midnight rides but I have two questions I need to find the correct pin on the front of the seat that allows it to swivel second I have tried to find a video that shows me how to adjust the play on my throttle both upfront and by the carb. Thanks in advance to all you guys !!!

For the seat piece, we'll need a pic and model number.
For throttle cable adjusting, there are nuts in front of and behind the cable attaching bracket on the carb, with a rubber boot on one side. Use those nuts to adjust till you have 1/8-1/4" play. You may have to adjust the idle speed screw after adjusting the slack.

I would bet you could find a suitable hinge pin at your local Home Depot or other hardware store.

You can find a bolt of the right thickness and sufficient length, and cut it down to size if too long.

the overall plan is to adjust everything to where the rear wheel almost, but not quit, turns on the center stand, and to have about a quarter inch of play in the throttle grip without the steering affecting engine speed
as far as the throttle adjustment goes:
screw the front adjustment all the way together and the carb adjustment at midpoint.
place scoot on center stand and adjust throttle setting screw to just below where the rear wheel starts to turn,
check throttle grip for play, if there is none then screw the carb adjustment all the way in and reset the throttle setting.
check the throttle grip for play.
if there is none then the cable is too short, get new cable and start over.
adjust the carb adjustment until the motor begins to rev slightly, then back off a few turns,
at this point you need to ride the scoot and make sure that turning the handlebars doesn't affect the speed setting.
if it does then screw in the carb adjustment a little.
now you are ready for the front adjustment.
you adjust the front to where you have roughly a quarter inch of play in the grip.
adjustment, this is the cable adjustment parts.
setting, this is the carb throttle set screw.
