Thanks I will try all of this. I am a novice though so it will probably take me a while. First I have to figure out how to remove the outer plastics to get to the engine. I'll let you know how everything works out.

My scooter has been out of commission for a little while, I have not ridden it or started it for about 2 months due to weather conditions. I have been storing it in my garage though so it has been out of the elements. A week and a half ago I tried to start it but I had no luck. The lights will turn on and my blinkers work but I am just not getting any response from the engine. I have tested the battery and it is still reading 12.5 volts. I have never worked on scooters before and I could really use some help as I really don't want to have to take it to a repair shop. I am having trouble locating the spark plug as I think that may be the issue but I have no clue really. Could it be an issue with the carburetor? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hitting ice on your scooter is no fun, that has happened to me twice, once I pulled out on to one of the main roads in my town and ended up sideways and another time I hit a patch of ice going down hill. Ride safe!
