An Issue Resolved

Monday I had a recurrence of issue #3 in Sept 6 post. The engine would not run when it got a little warmed up. After work I got to poking around the engine and discovered that the nut that holds the throttle cable to the carburetor was loose. Very loose. I tightened up both screws (on both sides of the plate) and started the scooter. Seemed OK. I then rode it to work the next three days and everything is fine. So I think this issue is resolved.

However, this cheap bike has always had some squeaks and rattle, but this week the rattles coming from the front end are a little louder...
