You didn't say what you set the gaps to. The mm values in the manuals, and the inch stamping on so many feeler gauges, get some people mixed up. The set of feeler gauges I have are marked in both units of measurement.


Most will agree that a good setting for a 150cc engine is, intake .004 inches, and exhaust .005 inches

Interesting point! I 99.9% sure I set them to .004in and .005in but now that you mention it I'm questioning that lol, I had the intention of setting them to .004in and .005in as thats what I read in forums and is stated in all the you tube videos would the scooter even run if I had gone an order of magnitude too loose (.05 in vs .005)? do my feeler gauges go that big?
