Have cleaned quite a few sidedraught style carburettor but never one like this, watched your video a few times and now feel much happier about removing and cleaning the carburettor. Many thanks 👍
great video thank you! I have a question for you. My '93 Px200 leaks fuel into the engine and exhaust. what could be causing this? Even if the fuel tap closed almost half a litre of fuel leaks in one night!
Thanks for appreciating my videos. Remove the fuel tank anche check in order fuel line, fuel shutoff valve, fuel tank. If the fuel tank is rusted you may consider to fix it or buy a newone. It is also dangerous this huge amount of fuel leaking. Let me know if You need further advice 🙂
Thanks, On Vespa You only need basic tools. just for few jobs You need some special socket (clutch and flywheel) and the torque wrench if You want to be sure for the tightening torque ( better never screw too hard, you may still screw again but once the nut is loose you have to to fix it)
WoW, ti ringrazio davvero di cuore.😃❤❤ A volte in inglese i video vengono leggermente diversi. Essendo già montati e solo tradotti aggiungo ogni tanto qualche meme o qualche grafica differente.
You mean that the lever was moving full scale without braking? You may have old brake fluid. This cause vapor in the brake line due to hot braking and the air compress it self instead of compress the brake pad
Vespa mechanic here. First, while SAE 30w NON DETERGENT oil will work in the gearbox, it is not a good idea to use it in warm weather. It tends to lose its viscosity when really hot. Piaggio recommends SAE 75w85 GL4 (NOT GL-5) gear oil. 75w90 works fine too, as long as it is GL-4. DO NOT use a homemade gasket on the drain plug. That plug is not supposed to use a gasket. It uses a compressible washer. The fill plug uses the same washer. They are very inexpensive. buy a couple dozen of them, and you will never have to worry about it again. Before removing both the drain plug and fill plug, clean off the plug and area around the plug thoroughly. I use spray brake cleaner. I also clean off both plugs after removing them. You don't want dirt in the transmission. You can use any number of ways to get the new oil in. A syringe works, a tiny funnel, the spout on a gear oil bottle, whatever fits in the small hole. You DO NOT need to measure it. You are supposed to fill it up till it is completely full. The way you did it, you didn't have enough oil to start with, and some of that ran down the side of the case.
Appreciate Your comment. For the gaskets I was missing the right size and I did it just to fix it temporary, and I showed just to show how to do it in case of emergency. The tip to clean the plug and the surrounding area is a great tip I will do it from now on Thanks 😃 About the different from synthetic and mineral oil i agree with You but some older Vespa with still some original equipment may experience a shorter life in clutch and some gaskets are in cork and the glue may be deteriorated by the detergent power of the oil (the oil "glass" of the oil tank ha a cork o-ring). As the fill up Your still right in the Italian video I specified, in English I forgot. I will make a new video soon with the some correction. Really Thanks for the time You took sharing Your good Knowledge ❤
If Your Vespa has the battery the fuse should be located above or behind the battery. If You don't have the battery You may not have even a fuse. Due to different regulation depend of Your country May be some differences. In my Vespa with the key in on position Lights and turn signal doesn't work. It just work only the horn. I have a Vespa with electric start and battery.
Super nice video, thank you. Turns out my brake switch looked pretty new, and the problem was the brake pedal sticking! Lots of cleaning and oil and it's returning well, and brake light functioning correctly!
Sorry, if You still interested here is the video on how to remove and clean the carburetor ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Vae9Jv5ANVM.html This video was mean to be the sequence. Regards
Your vespa is 125? If it has stock engine should be between 20 and 25 unless you go very fast. What do you mean that the petrol go very speed engine Crack case? Looks like a carburetor problem. The engine run smoothly at all rpm?
You mean that the engine stall at low rom and you need to keep rom above 2000rpm? Start to clean the carburetor specially the minimum jet. I made a video on carburetor cleaning on a Vespa
That was a brilliant work! You are not a professional mechanic as you've mentioned but your work style is more than enough for you to qualify to be a pro! Thumbs up! Mazda owner here too!
Yes, it should be the same. What do You mean for sealed beam? in the 1980 Vespa You should have the same lamp assembly that I show on this video. Let me know if I can help You. Marry Christmas
This is for a full cleaning and rebuild: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Vae9Jv5ANVM.html To adjust the AFR ( Air Fuel Ratio) I have still to make a video.
Hi, thanks for the video, I was looking for wiring diagram and I found this video usefull because I was able to see the colors of the cables and now my vespa works great
