Already checked the spark, nice and blue. Last go round I did replace CDI and coil. The frustrating thing is, you just never know when it is going to happen. Unfortunetly it does at the worst possible time

Arrrrgh!
Rode to work this morning after checking vacuum and it ran like a raped ape. Did not suck on it as AO suggested, but applied vacuum none the less. Good gas flow, changed intake, new fuel filter. Nary an issue until I headed home during rush hour. Died twice, but fired right back and didn't die any more as long as I kept throttle at 2000rpm.
So, what have I missed? Check valve clearance again?

As mentioned previous, did a valve adjust last weekend. Idle was too high, so at noon today I adjusted F/A mixture and set the idle to 1400. First stop light I came to choked/died. Pulled it over to see if it would start. Nada! Pushed it home and opened it up and first thing I noticed was no fuel in the line. Took off gas cap and still no flow so cranked on it and no movement. Disconnected fuel filter on carb side obviously had fuel flow there. Nothing between the vacuum valve and carb. Assume bypass of valve with an on/off valve first?  |

After tankrider helped on the valve adjust I forgot to write down the mileage in my book. Went out just a minute ago to write it down and found this:  |

Thanks bro!
By the way, pics of your new paint job on your scoot did not do it justice having now seen it in person.

For frying we just slice about 1/4 inch, a very SMALL amount of olive oil and different seasons-spices. Sometimes with a tad of parmesan cheese. Cook until almost transluscent.

Last valve adjust I thought the intake sounded a little loose, as in taka, taka,but have tightened up some though. And yes, no more stall outs at stops.
