my thoughts exactly hillbilly,,,either the float needle is stuck or there is something wrong with the float itself,,,,does the float bowl have a web down the middle and the float is touching it cause it's bent?

As a side note on the Bms bi metro,,, I was looking for performance parts for it and found a 150cc 4 valve complete balanced / blueprinted engine for it,,,,this could get interesting,,, if I can find one used with low miles or better yet one with a blown mill,,,, things could get very interesting in a hurry,,,

eliminating the cvt was the main reason i was going to jump on the bms bi-metro instead of a twist and go,,,i still am thinking of it,,,,,auto clutch with 4 speed box sounds like my cup of tea,,,i really do want one of those silly things,,

i have a stella,,,got rid of a vespa et4 for it,,like the manual box way more than a cvt,,,theres no neutral when tuning the engine,,,they do waste a bunch of power that gets turned to heat,,,after some runs i couldn't even touch the belt cover on the et,,,,my mind has been working on a auto clutch off the crank with a 5 or 6 speed derailer system like a road bicycle,,,i think any decent running gy6 150cc would be able to reach 70-80 mph and almost double the mpg,,but its money for developemnet and most importantly the time,,,it would be worth it just to rip past the harley crowd in the canyons and smoke them solid,,,

Hey the spacer/ medium weight ( good quality like belray) will transform the front end,,,you will be amazed,,,I've done that routine over a dozen times easy,,,works like a charm,,,oh I didn't mention that the washer on top of the spring will help with the way the spacer sits,,,

A washer won't do it but a half inch section of schedule 30 irrigation pipe will,,,then go to a 15 weight fork oil ,,,problem solved
