Doing a rebuild on my engine,fitting a DR177 kit,the casings have already been ported for another kit and are larger than the DR177,would you trim the gasket and port the barrel to suit the casings?also fitting a 24/24 carb so going to have to port there to suit the carb,any advice would be well appreciated,cheers folks

I'm in the process of rebuilding again because was'nt entirely happy with it after a mild heat sieze and was thinking of changing the clutch to a different one and was just wondering what the benifits are of a cosa clutch,I've already got a 21T,dropped the engine out so will start messing with it this week,cheers for all the info folks

What benefits would I get from one of these clutches? Would a 23 tooth be too much for a 177 kit,should I go for a 21 or a 22 tooth clutch on a px125e?cheers

Just brought this cutdown,it's mental,going give it a proper going over tomorrow,got loads of spares with it in the deal so all good I think,just a PX125 tuned up,side panels,legshields and tail cut down a touch.goes proper nice,166 kit on,ported to suit,pinasco pipe,new clutch,he's put on a different carb and reed valve assembly gotta check that out see what he's done but runs proper sweet and loads of power reckon easy pull 70mph plus

I've got a standard 1984 PX but I've dropped on a 86 PX cutdown that looks proper mental,thinking of buying it as a toy to just rip round on,just wondering what the thoughts are on cutdowns

What's your verdict on cut down vespas?should you leave them original or would you go for a cut down?

What's the difference between these two carbs?
|

Post by kidda on May 22, 2015 22:33:39 GMT
Question,could you get away with a 177 kit and just a 24/24 carb or would you have to adjust the main jet size in the carb?

ebay.to/1Ak637X I've seen this would this be ok for a 1984 px125e non battery scooter?

Post by kidda on May 19, 2015 5:19:50 GMT
Also how much would you pay for one?cheers

Hiyya folks,I'm going strip the engine again and whilst I'm doing it I'm going replace the stator,I've seen some on eBay that are universal and quite cheap,any recommendations on this part and what I should be looking for?its a non battery scooter without electric start.cheers

It bump starts and runs ok but won't turn over with the kickstart so I think it's another strip down job.

Got a problem with my kickstart it just slips and does'nt turn the engine over,any ideas what the problem is and how much of a job is it?cheers

Haha, oh yes I did get it goin with a bit of running up and down the street and a right sweat on,even took it 4a spin up the street and it did run like a bag sh*te but I will confess to it the piston was the wrong way round,oh well trial and error haha,quality.

I've gone to full premix at a touch over 2% because of running it in,was a strange one I got to just about the same distance then just cut out again(same route aswell about 4-5 mile)this time it would start back up but try and get going I'd only get a few yards then it would die again,had to push it to me folks house and mess with it,looked like a fuel leak on the banjo joint so sorted that but made no difference it cut out again after a few yards(cdi not red hot just Luke warm),fetched a new cdi (swapped over/spark at plug) also swapped atom to a be5,wouldn't start,checked fuel again looked like an airlock in fuel pipe,sorted that and got it running,Managed to get home it run but not 100% seemed a touch sluggish not the same as start of the journey,going check the length of the fuel pipe and swap the main jet to a 115 instead of a 105 see what happens also swap plugs from a b6 to a b8,proper x-file

Post by kidda on Mar 19, 2015 21:04:01 GMT
It dunna feel 2 bad be honest,think its a fuel issue just the case of trial and error I think to get to the root cause,I'll up the jet size and replace fuel lines again,bloody nightmare!!

Post by kidda on Mar 19, 2015 19:23:38 GMT
My god I've had a nightmare!!!same again did about 4-5 miles it just died on me! Had 2 push her 2me folks house mess with it, replaced cdi unit then wud'nt start,airlock in fuel pipe,changed the atomiser from a be4 to be5,got it going and got me home,what atomiser would you run with a 105 main jet with a malossi 166 kit or should I upjet bigger,it felt rough running after it died again,I'm running full premix now aswell

Post by kidda on Mar 5, 2015 23:31:17 GMT

Post by kidda on Mar 5, 2015 5:33:52 GMT
Cheers,to be honest it looked ok when I stripped it down again a nice choclatey brown in colour,I'll go 2 premix then keep an eye on it,it just threw me abit with different ratings for different plugs ie b6 runs hotter than a b8 so was wondering wether change to a different rating plug,cheers

Just a quick one about spark plugs, I'm sure I'm running a B6HS (off the top of my head because at work and can't check)do you think this plug is too hot for the malossi 166 kit?cheers

Post by kidda on Mar 3, 2015 23:29:44 GMT

Think it was but thought going order a new one just in case, to be honest I'm thinking it was down to the oil leak from the gasket was the cause of the partial sieze but also thinking the cutting out was due to a fuel starvation from the tap
