Before: scooter would sputter a bit as I drove.
One day: Started in the cold, ran for a couple of minutes, then died and wouldn't start up again.
So: Followed troubleshooting steps in service manual - it suggested a clogged carburetor, dead spark plug, or perhaps a blocked fuel line. Dismantled and thoroughly cleaned carb. No change. Replaced spark plug. Started and ran for a 20 seconds and then died and wouldn't start up again. Haven't tried the fuel line yet, but noticed there is fuel leaking from the exhaust pipe.
Any suggestions?
