electrical wiring has fallen apart. it be a chinese scooter. Fully rewiring of the whole system is the only solution

so your wiring problem is near the sparkplug as you knocked the wiring in place when you changedthe plug

here is what i would do if you got a kikstarter bypass all wiring so the only thing working is the engine and then make a wee kill switch from jaycar so you can stop it on your own wiring. Then when you got time you can hunt the fault with a test light and multimeter

The chances are damn slim but is there a possibility it is overheating (piston seizing, causing power loss) and excess carbon buildup causing it to diesel on ignition shutoff! I've seen that a few times on 4 stroke petrol motors that have been treated very poorly, not sure if it would occur on a dinky scooter though! Just a guess, please don't pillory me TMMB
