Only 750 miles on scooter. Put away with stabilizer. Starts bar-o-o-m like it's going to run fine. Then stops and won't start. Checked plug and spark. Plugged line?

Put away my 2008 Yamaha 125 Vino scooter last fall with stabilizer in the gas. This spring it starts barrooom, like it's going to take right off, then kills and won't start. Checked plug, looks great - only has 750 miles on it. Any ideas without a complete carb job? Don't see cycle person, so trying car...

The stabilizer is a bad thing for some carbs. It has a chemical in it that can eat away seals and gaskets inside your carb. Grab a gasket set for it, replace those, make sure to spray the carb out, then put it all back together adn you should be ok.

Why is my truck misfiring/running poorly/rough idle

The old gas thing isn't good, but this seems pretty extreme unless the gas was visibly bad. Did you examine or filter it when you siphoned it to be sure it had no visible water or contaminants? Anyway, its certainly worth exploring before going farther. Make sure its got clean fresh fuel. Otherwise, maybe timing belt / chain trouble?

2000 gmc jimmy starts in AM fine won't start after sitting in sun all day

Can you jumper the fuel pump and make it start and continue to run ?
Have you checked to see if you are getting spark when it won't start ?
Could be a relay or coil, ignition module, or other component.
