Vespa 100
Got a 1981 Vespa 100 (douglas) to fix up. It's got a couple of missing parts. Shoulkd it have a plastic or metal cylinder head cowling? Should it have a coil or CDI and regulator? What parts are needed to make complete throttle internals? What colours was this model originally made in? Cheers, Ian

Carb and jets not loose, throttle cable not snagged anywhere, obviously I've adjusted the tickover screw to where it sounds fine but once you blip the throttle it revs like mad and takes a long time t...

Re: T5 stator problems?
After trying again, now getting over 1000 ohms from the pickup(red) and nothing from the LT (green). Looks like there might have been some "operator error" around the multimeter, earlier, sorry . So, once I've got a flywheel puller, I'll look at replacing the LT coil then, with Piaggio or ...

No resistance showing on multimeter from either pick up or the coils. I've tried a new spark pl...
