Hey Everyone,
I bought a doodlebug that was returned (for a discount) and I noticed that whoever had it altered something. The black plastic piece on the top of the carb that turns when you twist the throttle is suppose to have a little plastic "stop" on it. If you twist it to full throttle the little plastic thing is suppose to hit the metal so it can't go any further. The metal piece is right above the idle screw. I got this bike used but I have another one that I bought new to compare it to. Should I get a new plastic piece so it stops correctly? Anyone know what this does and if I should worrk about it? Sorry about the cruddy pic it's the best I could do right now. If you look at the pic, the plastic piece that swings around (when you twist the throttle) is to the left of the metal "tower" above the idle screw. Without the little plastic "bump" the piece goes a little further than it is suppose to. If this is sopmething I should fix, anyone know where I can get one for the stock carb and how it goes on. (and comes off)
Thanks!
