Hey all I don't have a super 8 but most are similar.The kick starter and side cover should come off together.Your 3/4 throttle position is most likly because it's starving for fuel bigger main jet should help.Hard to say without seeing,but the thing that fell out is most likely an alignment dawl.Don't get scared if anything else falls out somthing isn't qute right youll need to get in there anyway.Good luck

Right I couldnt wait to see inside this thing so I went for it again and this time managed to get the cover off. Oh and the spacer that fell out was nothing serious, it was just there to help hold the cover on. Anyway I've taken a picture of the inside of the CVT. I'm just curious as to what the drive boss is? And how I can de-restrict it. Also the variator at the front, the bolt I cant undo as the variator keeps spinning so I can get a grip of it, is there a special tool I need to get it off?

could you hold the variator still while you unscrew it?

Well you have to use quite a large spanner and its pretty tight and it hurts your hands when you try to hold it still because the force of the spanner is a lot greater than the force of your hand.  :-\

If you have access to airtools or electric impact driver should come right off.The drive boss will be between the variater the one on the left.The ramp and roller weights.Once you get the nut off and outer gear try to hold all together so you can see how it works.If you dont parts will fall out of this piece not hard to figure out but best to get a look at it first.The boss is the tube thing between the two,some just have a washer that needs to be removed some need to be replaced with a unrestricted one,if it has a machined lip most likely need to replace or have shaved off.should be smoothe all the way.Hold rear roller ramp together when replacing or the rollers can get turned sideways play with it a little bit youl figure it out.Good luck

Ok cheers for that. You mean the bit between the outer pulley and inner pulley of the variator, where the belt grips?

Think its time to order an impact wrench.

Ok thanks for your help.. so if the drive boss doesnt have a washer (which I couldnt feel) and is machined on, when you undo the vatiator, does the boss come off from in between the variator and comefree? If so would this be any good?

I've just had another look at the variator boss where the belt runs on on the variator. It seems to already be smooth? There is no washer, lip or anything, its just smooh all the way across where the belt runs. Here's a pic.. I don't know if it will show up that well but here we go:
