Default 125cc scooter engine

Hi Guys or Girls

My wife and i have a 125cc scooter that when not running, empty's the carb of fuel and dumps it in the engine where the oil is, the oil is being changed regularly because of this ie twice a month.

most times we try to start the scooter it hydrolics / locks up and wont start on electric or kick.

i have adjusted the float level in the carb's fuel chamber but it still has the problem.

we only use the scooter, on average, three times a week so not used very often.

i thought the diaphram carbs were air tight so im stumped as to how the engine can syphon the carb.

any help is greatfully received

The scooter is a Moto-Zeta Rally sc

kind regards
