clean carb. fuel flows. won't stay running.

I have an 85 that is in decent condition. We charged up a new battery, replaced the gas and it turned over just fine with the exception of the gas spraying out of the carb.

My son and I quickly cleaned the carb and now it doesn't leak but it also doesn't run. If we let it sit for a minute or two ...

No fuel getting to the engine. Took the carb back apart and put it back together. A little shot of carb cleaner in ...

What size fuse for my spree?

We were the lucky recipients of a free, slightly disassembled scooter. Today I had some keys made from the code on the ignition. (Locksmith can do it easily) But we blew the fuse after installing a new battery. The fuse that was in it was a 30 amp but the sticker on the inside of the fuse cover says ...
