The double nut trick works very well and easy to do, have a look on YouTube 👍

I have never had a problem putting back in . Measure how much is at the top on each , and put back to same height above cylinder 👍

If its never came off before it will need some welly, that's normal it'll be threadlocked. Tighten the bolts up very tight into each other before using the bottom one to undo. Good luck. Why they didn't let the barrel side out is beyond me and obviously beyond vespa too.

Cheers scooterbooster. your right about the barrel not being able to slide off I was hoping it would but I didnt want to take off cables and pipes to drop engine a couple of inches to slide barrel off. Cheers everyone.alan.
