Try taking the gas cap off. These have gas cap venting problems. These scooters work best when full of gas and the gas cap turned out about a half a turn from fully tight. (but a slight bit of gas will leak)

@chris42999 Did it work or not?

Your problem lies in the gas cap. When the cap gets old, the draining gas creates a vacuum if the cap doesn't let in air like its supposed to, and the gas flow ceases. Just loosen the cap as it starts to die

check your spark magneto

this isnt a motorbike or scooter just for short trips  it is what it is cool but for short distances

have a look at spark system your problem is there

The problem is the fuel switch. There is a clear plastic washer inside the fuel switch which gets dislodged and does not allow fuel to flow quickly. Take apart the fuel switch completely. Fix the washer or throw it away (it is not needed) and your problems will be solved.

I can help you! I am the Fleet Maint Tech for a designated driver service in the U.S. My R7 is the worst of the bunch we have...and the only issue is the bloody kick starter- the teeth of the kick starter don't always stay engaged with the pawl on the inner side of the variator. But like a lazy politian, give it some good solid kicks and it gets to work!

But if you still don't like it...I'll take it!

I'm afraid I am getting the exact same problems with my di Blasi now. Did you fix the problem in the end? What worked?

Chris,

Look into the possibility of a fusible link in the wiring. I had a car years ago that would do the same thing. After letting it sit for a few hours it would start again. Apparently there was a small gap in the fusible link and when it would get hot enough, the gap would become to great to complete the circuit. Hope this helps out.

The problem is the float bowl cant keep up with the supply of gravity fed fuel. The fix is simply loosen the carb manifold attatch screw and 'tilt' the carb about 6 degrees to the right, then tighten the screw and readjust the air intake box. This will allow the float chamber to 'keep up' with the fuel requirements at high revs. I hope this helps.
