late night with sprees---full throttle when I get them start

right, thats what would happen. the slide would stop too high, acting like the throttle is open.

just wanted to say thanks guys. One of the spree's is all fixed and runs great like before. It was the throttle piston slide. It's keyed and should only be installed one way. I did it this morning and worked like a charm. Now the other scooter the tang that the throttle piston lines up with is for the most part completly broke off. There is some wear marks on it so I'm going to try and line it up but if doesn't work I guess I'm screwed and need a new carb. Oh well beginners luck I guess. LOL
