Question 1: When I was riding my 110's yesterday the engine didn't want to rev up. It would idle but when I touched the gas it would die, and it started acting like this after I rode them for a while. I went out this morning and they started right up. What could be the problem? I'm pretty sure that it has something to do with the carb. And I also changed the plugs and it didn't help either.
Question 2: I just want to make that my gas lines are connected right on my fuel valve(check pic).

Hmm...the pic doesn't work. I'm sure the gas line is hooked up right, there's really no way to mess it up. If it dies when you give it throttle, I would take off the bowl and make sure my jets are clean, check float level, check the air filter make sure it's good and clean. What color was the old plug you took out?

Check it again, I had problems with it at first but it seems to be working fine now.

On the 110 you got 2 gas lines.

The filter is clean. I cleaned the carb a while back, but didn't check the float hight. The plugs where dark brown.

see if the choke is on. Sometimes I'll bump mine while I'm riding and it will do that.

Checked for that to when it happened, but no luck. Tried it with it on and off. They run now, but I'm trying to figure out what caused the motor to do that on both of them.
And I also found out that I got the fuel lines backwards :x
It looks like the gas line towards the back at the part where the fuel valve is looks like it is kinked a little bit.

Thats the reserve line, and it flows gas good to. I got the gas lines on backwards to, but the fuel was still over the reserve pipe in the tank.
Could the weather be part of it? It's was in 40's.
It would only act up when it has been ridden for a real good time, around 30 min of none stop riding.
Could their water be in the tank or condensation(sp?) on the inside the manifold that might of caused it to run like that?
Its in the single digits-teens around me and I can still juice mine all day. I got an ATC90. If you had water in the gas it would not run right from the get-go. Maybe your intake gasket might be deteriorated, or the carb. might be loose? The float may possibly be sticking as well.

When I get the chance I'll go check the float level on both of them and make sure the gaskets are still good then and all the bolts.
