I am having issues with my Vespa running as if the it's getting bogged down when trying to accelerate. Some days it goes away after a while and other days it's not even fun to ride. I've replaced the ignition coil and the fuel tap filter, and have tried to buy a couple carburator on Amazon and have been disappointed each time bc it won't fit. I am trying to get a shop to help me to just give me the right part number, to either buy a replacement one or a higher performing one, but they just give me the run around. Here is my tag and if anyone can help me, I would appreciate it.

I just installed this carb from scooterpartsco on my 4 stroke 2013 LX 50 and it's running great now. I highly recommend the carb and the vendor.
