What is wrong with my 41cc gas scooter?

Question

I can't take it to the shop, The shops around here don't mess with gas scooters. The manufactuer(or the place I got it from) is in California. It would cost me 115 dollars to send it there(not including to get it fixed)

Well I was riding in the throttle was kinda of sticking, and when I let it go it was going about 5 mph. Then, me and my cousin were riding in the country(still sticking) and it just cut off...It never have did this before. Nothing went wrong. Full tank of gas.

What can be wrong with it?

How can somebody fix it, and links?

All help is needed

Answer 1

you are looking the wrong direction. look up your local motorcycle shop, anyone that sells kawasaki, honda, suzuki, etc. should work on this thing for you, or a lawn mower shop even they work on 2 stroke weed-eaters. Look for small engine repair. not auto shops.

Answer 2

you didn't state how old it is, whether it is 2 or four stroke, how long it was sitting. All these things can cause different problems. From the wrong fuel being used, to the carburetor being gummed up from sitting too long etc.
