Im sorry for crowing the forum with another one of these. I hope my issue is something very simple. i posted a video of my scooter instead of trying to describe it.

i am not very mechanically inclined. i try my best. the scooter is an 09' 125cc buddy. has over 10k miles.
i got my scooter serviced, cleaned out carb. new battery and did changed the oil out myself. it started to shut off on me when i stopped moving, wouldn't stay in idle. i left it alone and said i will mess with it when i have time. it has been over 6 months and i have moved states.
recently, i have charged my old battery, bought a new battery. took apart the carb, cleaned out my gas line tubes. tested my auto petcock and changed the gas out.
i dont know if this would be a spark plug issue?
any ideas that i can try.. than you very much for any help.

I have screwed that in and out. It doesnt allow the scooter to turn on.babblefish wrote:Sounds like your idle speed and/or low speed mixture screw needs adjustment.
I was assuming thata my issue for the scooter not staying in idle once it turns on but now it just wont turn over and start the engine.
