Dose any one know of any decent scooter shops in or near Leeds my vespa PX 125 was leaking 2 stroke oil from the out let at the bottom of the tank.
And in short I have snapped the metel auto feed pipe connecter that screws through the tank and can only find them abroad on eBay any ideas were I can get one from
Cheers

There's the bike shop on the a64 that do new vespa parts or lammbretta Leeds next nearest to us is buzzsolo in Halifax.but I say do away with it and pre mix you know it's right every time and you will only constantly worry about the autolube when it's fixed
There's a shop in Shipley aswell but I won't name it because there a massive rip off on price

I've used these for MOTs and some bits.
www.dyronsmotorcycles.co.uk
and these (who are very well known and respected) have done loads of work on my scoots for me. Top class !
www.chiselspeed.co.uk/
As rab sez I'd get rid of the auto lube and premix. If you want to do this yourself you'll get help on here if needed or both the above places would be happy to do it for you or supply the parts.
Cheers. |

I've noticed that 2 stroke engine tends to be less smelly and smokey with autolube, if that matters.  |
