Ok, so I notice that the more I have been riding the Whizzer (NE5 -2007) the more this has been happening. Here is the pattern - I can ride 10 miles - stopping for lights and such. Then on the way home I take the scenic route through some nice neighborhoods with lots of stop signs. Each time I stop at sign then go...the engine bogs down and sounds like it is going to stall. I pedal to get up to speed and when I give it some throttle...spit...sputter...spit...sputter.... then I get beyond that point and it goes like perfection.
Same thing happend just now - took it on a 10 mile ride - pretty much a continuous 10 miles with only 2 or 3 stoplights along the route. I turn into the neighborhood with all of the stop signs....and just what I described above happens.
Then today when I pulled in my driveway (it goes up an incline for about 10 feet - but at the base is a little dip. I hit that dip and the Whizzer just stalled out completely.
I got off the Whizzer for a few minutes - even though it is 75 degrees out - I could see smoke coming off the engine...very hot.
Then I saw a few drips of oil on the ground - I looked under the frame and saw a drop there ready to drip. I notice the engine's front side is spattered with oil. It seems as though the oil may be coming from the area in the photo - am I looking at some sort of gasket replacement?
Sorry - I combined two issues in one thread - it was just all in my train of thought.
