4.4 - 4.0 sounds odd. In the middle sounds like a good choice given the odds.
Perhaps its a resistance reading that is needed because that would be much more accurate.

My bets on the valves.

I have done the valve clearence. It was a bit extended. One was 0.20 mm the other 0.23 mm. I set it up 0.12 after that I gave a try. First attempt...started..try again...started. I was quite happy with lots of hope. Went down later to try again....I was nearly crying. Nothing!!!!! Does not even fired up. Bloody hell. What is wrong this scooter? Why does not want to start constantly?? I noticed it starts in the morning until 12. After maybe too tired or too busy to start. Any idea???
I will check the tps resistance but I am pretty sure that is not the source of my problem.

When it doesn't start check it for spark. The electrical systems on these bikes are marginal at best, and intermittent firing issues are very common.

Zombie you were right. I should've found it eralier. I am too embarrassed to tell you what was the problem......the spark plug. But this was the second one. I got it from my friend and when I tried with that was good. And when I was checking the spark plug I did not check it close enough. The spark was strong, blue and making a clicking noise but....not exactly between that two "thing". And yeah....sorted. One week headache has gone. Thank you guys

Hopefully that got it. If you have further issues w/ spark post up. CDI's, and Stators go bad fairly often.
