150cc scooter with fuel issue
I have a mc-06 scooter/motorcycle that if you ride for a while shuts off. But if you take the gas cap off, and then start it up it runs again. Like wtf. And when I take off the cap it hisses like there's either negative or positive pressure. I just replaced the gas cap with one from my old gas powered bicycle that happened to fit. I know the tank had to be vented on the gas bike so maybe this will help. Hell if I know.

That's not the first time I've heard a report like that, although it is the first for a scooter. Perhaps it uses a ball and spring in the cap (like a check valve) and the spring is too strong or the ball is gummed up. Can you do some surgery on it?
