Trying again: 150cc craigslist scooter

Good, I've been putting a lot of miles on it until recent rains.

I have been investigating a puddle of oil under the carb. Looks like I got carried away when I started ripping out unneeded components. In think one of them was an OEM oil catch can that was holding and returning oil to the valve cover area.

I tried using a longer run of tubing with a filter at the end to see if that would hold the excess while running. I revved it out on the stand and it seemed to work fine, but when I rode it at WOT it puked out the filter. So I think I will try the hamster bottle catch can mod as described on prodawg.
