When I had my TaoTao, Lancer, the fast idle, enricher, never really worked right.
It would start fast but the drop off within seconds, and stall. I had to baby the throttle until it warmed up a bit...

Another thought, not yet mentioned ... perhaps check the bolts that secure the engine halves. If one was not torqued properly, it could allow a leak. Don't over-tighten, but verifying they are might...

There's probably an air/fuel mixture screw that's blocked off. When I did my PDI on my 150, I open the cover on mine. I always had to run mine on the rich side to keep it idling.
Perhaps there might...

That sucks. You'd have to drill them and use and easy out, or similar, to back them out. Perhaps there's a machine shop close by that could remove them for you.
The replacement studs are cheap.

Where did it break.? I wouldn't run it (for long) if it was open from the cylinder head, but a missing muffler would be ok for a short time. With a straight pipe, I wouldn't be sure about damage, but...

You said the light doesn't come on with the rear lever; do you hear it clicking by the lever. Compare to the front brake, you should hear a little click when the lever is pulled. That might indicate...

Pete,
When I first read this, I envisioned this split along the pipe, rather than at the seam; Reading again, I see that's what you had said.

Are you able to hear it click when you turn the key. Maybe rock the seat while turning the key ... or push down on it while trying. The locks aren't the greatest.

Good point, Ebuddy.
I didn't think of the emissions stuff. I had gotten rid of the evaporative system and bypassed the PAIR system (removed later) during the PDI.

Hey,
I have had a small leak from my gear oil drain plug. I'm not sure if I used a new washer in previous oil changes or not ... I can't seem to find replacements anywhere.
