Michael -

You say your moped seems to sputter a little at stop signs. You might just
try adjusting the idle speed a bit. The cold weather shouldn't have
anything to do with it. All it takes is a screwdriver and, if you're
working outside, a good pair of gloves. The idle screw should be right on
top of the carb.
