Ok so update. Took the "new carb" i bought back off the scooter and cleaned out my old carb very very very very good, and put that back ont he scooter....this is why.
The "new carb" everything was to big and what i mean is the main jet was bigger the a/f screw was bigger the needle in the diaphragm was bigger everything no wonder my scooter was running like .
But old carb cleaned back on scooter runs fantastic only thing when i first first take off i have a slight i mean slight slight delay before it takes off it wants to bog just a bit bit low would that be to lean or rich at idle/take off, still working with a/f screw as it goes.
Last where can i get this 4 stroke oil any part store?

I put the old carb back on my scooter and changed to a manual shut off valve, scooter fired right up and runs like a beast.
It has a slight slight lag and take off but nothing after that i feel like its still a little lean at take off not to sure what do you think?

Tomorrow i am putting this new diaphragm into my old carb as well as the diaphragm needle seeing my old carb ran better just kind of a new rebuild for it. My question is:
Should i put the clip on the needle all the way down in the middle or all the way up top.
And also where should i put the a/f screw on the carb also so i have a good starting point?

Indeed so i took the whole carb off and what im gonna do is take the float needle out of this one and put it in my old carb thats all im gonna do and with the old carb i am going to start with 2 1/2 turns on the a/f screw and see what happens there.
Seeing the scooter ran good with the old carb i think i should be in ok shape idk i sure hope so this thing has been giving me all kinds of .
In my video what would cause my scooter to die out like that?

I am using 10w-30 full synthetic oil. The temp was cold like the mid 30's morning time to mid 60's afternoon. Now we are getting into the 70-  range temp wise. My plug is black the guy at the store said it looks like its been running a little rich? Im not totally sure. Seeing i tore the diaphragm on this new carb here i will be putting the old carb back on tomorrow lol and hoping like heck it works. As far as switching to Manuel shut off valve i have a line coming from tank into filter then into the petcock, out the the petcock to the carb. then my vac lines runs from the petcock to the intake elbow. If i do go Manuel instead of the vac petcock shouldnt i just take the petcock off and put the Manuel one there and just take and cap the vac line right there at the intake spot? |

.006 which is .15 mm and then .004 which is .10 mm
Yes i have the old carb still, and i am useing stock air box and muffler.
this is what it sounded like when i first woke up this moring. Since then i have changed the fuel lines again, i want to go to a Manuel shut off valve but am confused on where to cap the vac line that. And now i have the carb off and i am going to replace the float needle on new carb on the old carb and adjust the a/f screw all the way in and then back out 2 1/2 turns with the new needle and float and diaphragm because the diaphragm on this new carb is not sitting right and i feel it could cause problems.

I replaced the carb, air box, plug, fuel hose, vac hose, and put new gas into it.
when i got the scooter from the guy nothing was running on it. I then put plug into machine gas new lines, and got it running. Just like 2 weeks ago replaced the carb and ever since then i have been losing power when going up hills.
my valves are set to .006 exhaust .004 intake i have no idea what else could go wrong.

You say cap the vac. Do you mean cap it right on the carb or cut the line short? And what would you cap it with? Also would this help my prob with cutting out going up hills?

frame mounted petcock and where the line comes from the tank through the filter into the petcock where it leaves the petcock to go to the carb it has a slight drip leak out from there. would that cause me to lose power going up hills and have a bit of a idle problem. If it is not raining in the morning i am going to try and get a video of what i am talking about on my scooter as far as throttle let off give more and it sputters for a split second. Where i notice most of my problem is going up a hill it wants to cut out really hard.
If i decided to go to a manual shut off instead of the vac petcock what would i do with the air hose from the petcock to the carb? should i just close it some way and is that the only line i have to close up thanks for the input.
