Hey guys,

Lately when I start up one of my scoots, the first couple of pulls on the throttle sound like it's actually letting less gas get to the engine...like the engine sort of dulls and gets quiet when I try to rev it. But eventually everything is fine, no problems accelerating, etc.

Any ideas what this could be? Should I take it in to get looked at? I'm not a gearhead and am selling the scoot soon...would like to know your thoughts.

Thanks!

Valve clearance check is due... (I'm assuming the 4T)
