I guess it was that last batch of gas I got. I ran new gas in it from another place and the problem stopped. Thanks for the suggestions.

So glad that's all it was!  Yeah, you're not the only one got some bad gas.  I think it happens to our scooters more than anyone realizes and people go off replacing and disassembling things when they should first try getting gas somewhere else!

How else are you gonna get all the extra parts? Every time I take it apart I have some new parts leftover for the parts box. I still don't know what the round thing with the spring is for...
