    Hi guys, got a 2001 50cc 2T zip, i filled it up with petrol the other day and ever since it seems to be smoking while riding, and this is all while the engine is warm, i ride it to work which is a 20min ride and its smoking when i get there, it has also lost power when trying to accelerate from a stand still, im worried my carb may have water in it? Would it cause the loss in low end power though? Any suggestions

    Thanks

    running richh, poor acceleration could be down to rollers
