Carb is good, all clean and no leaks. I've double checked everything for a leak. Funny how she does perfectly fine now idle and up to 3/4 throttle, but try to go WOT and she falls on her face. should be simple, I feel like I should know it, but I can't wrap my ADHD mind around it. Thinking I just might order my BBK and a new reed block....

Now I'm not so sure about it being anything but carb....I'll post up new findings in a few.

So I double checked the carb, cleaned everything once again to make sure. All is well there. I had to check my vacuum port from where I put a "boost bottle" on, seeing as I saw what appeared to be oil buildup there, turns out it was a little residual left over from me doing away with the oil tank and lines yesterday. I can't go any further with running tests, all I can do is tear down once I get new gaskets. I did take a chance and run a few miles today, no issues except I can't get it running right WOT. I managed to get a recording of it on that ride, though not the best since it was under the seat. Once I figure out how to post it up I'll get it so maybe someone can shed some light. It's a 3gp audio file on my cell, I'm not a computer type guy so it could take a little bit before it's up unless I send it to someone through MMS. On a worse note, the scoot is down for a few days since the throttle grip decided to break up on me all together this evening. 2strokd, you'll be my savior once I get the replacement in the mail! I'm at a loss here guys, open to any suggestions.

Ok, let's try this....at about 45 seconds you can hear me get down on it and the strange "surge" I was talking about before occurs. It's a lot of stop and go as I'm in a neighborhood. Disregard my brake squeal and sorry about the audio, I haven't figured out a good system yet and my phone in underseat storage was the best I could think of. www.fileden.com/files/2012/5/3/3300172/data-2012-5-3-15-11-29.mp3

Not sure if you can even do it on a 2T carb since I haven't had to do it on my zip clone but have you tried different needle clip settings?

I've thought about the needle height, but with it running fine before and then just out of the blue refusing to go WOT, would that have an effect?

Try a new plug yet? Sounds rich. It could be the audio though? Make some of that clip your ring tone if you can

Yeah I've changed the plug twice already, nice coloring. Skeedr would be the one to make a ringtone out of, not Venny lol
I scare everyone with my alerts for messages, nice loud airraid (tornado) siren. Side note, check your paypal later this afternoon 2strokd.
There's no real reason for me to get too frustrated with it, after all I don't have that much money tied up into it yet lol. I just wish it would give me some clue as to why it's sick
