Moby to the rescue, and moby cylinder info

Been a while since I've worked on or posted about the mopeds, but a friend of mine who is ill and needing to have a cheap form of transportation asked me to get a moped going for her so I've got a good purpose. The goal will be to get my orange Mobylette 50 (variator converted) to run and idle reliably (it's always died intermittently at idle) and performing well as a basically stock bike for her to use.

By the way, here's a good mopedarmy.com thread on moby cylinder identification and differences, i.e. fast cylinders vs. slow cylinders.
The information is insightful but not a complete guide.

Also got paperwork through to get plates on my Hobbit and Trac Liberty, so I'll be posting soon about those bikes as well.
