PX200E running prob

[nik81]

Hi
After some advice pls
Renovating the scoot after years being idle.
New clutch plates & backplate & bush as it was split. New CDi. Had petrol tank out but all pipes etc connected back and in ok.
Starts ok and runs with choke out but as soon as choke off engine dies. Initially revs as choke put back in then cuts out.
Engine runs if I keeping revving it but won’t idle at all - just dies. Had carb out and checked/clear whole carb n jets with compressed air. All jets look clear.
Got new carb gaskets on order but just wondered
if it’s not that, what the issue cld be?
Thx in advance

Is it the right size for a P2? 24mm I seem to reckon…

[nik81]

Yeah it’s a 24mm dellorto carb. As standard

Best way to clean carb is with an ultra sonic cleaner, compressed air won't be enough to remove all the gum from evaporated fuel

[ironsloth]

What jets are you running, also what exhaust, have you drilled your air filter etc? As Adrian said, have you renewed your fuel pipe? Have you looked/replaced the fuel tap?

Its difficult to diagnose... But it sounds to me fuel.

The idle circuit could be blocked.

Check petrol tap and filtwr
