Thank you Jerry and millsc. You guys are a big help. Now, how do I get enough fuel into the carb to start it up? I'm having a hard time finding a replacement online, but that won't really matter once I cap it off.

It just sucks because it won't start without it. So it's sidelined until I can replace it.

As I'm pulling up to work today: I see a small pothole I can't avoid, so I slow way down, and go over it. The scoot immediately died. I coasted into a spot and went in. I came out to check on it, tried to start with electric start, so close, but just couldn't quite start. Well, after inspecting, I noticed a real small fuel leak. It was coming from a screw... I noticed it could be tightened, I tightened as well as I could. More attempts to start, both electric and kick, to no avail. Well I came back out 20 minutes later and kick started it right up. Cool. So after work I head home and halfway there it dies at the stop sign. I pull it aside and look underneath. Yep, that screw was gone. I walked balk up the street a hundred yards or so, no hope in finding it. Anyways, once a friend helps me get it home, I took a pic of it so someone can help me identify a) what it is, I'm still learning. and b) what size is that screw and is it a special thread?
