Autolube Removal Overkill!

Hi All, I have tried in the past to find a description with pictures on how to remove the autolube and couldn't find any.

Re: Vespa PX Steering Lock alternative

Mine has 4 wires from the switch PX200E but battery removed. A lot of the wiring has been fiddled with previously.
Thinking about it, would like something different ;)

Vespa PX Steering Lock alternative

Hi all,
Dropped forks, looks like the inside of the welded tube damaged allowing barrel to move to a locked position.

Tks

Re: Vespa PX Steering Lock worry

Hi All Since buying my PX 200 some years ago the lock barrel occasionally used to come out with the key a bit but always went back in again and it never caused me any concern. A while back, i returned to my parked up scoot and no matter what with the key in, the barrel would not turn and i was stuc...

Re: PX Autolube do you clean yours?

Hi Paul, As most "Self Service" I just wondered who regularly maintained it as I think many leave well alone. I was shocked at the wear and swarf collected after 11K. I have umed and arred about going premix but the autolube is spot on if maintained so for now will keep it. Just putting it...

Re: PX Autolube do you clean yours?

Should be 3 pics. After recent rebuild was going to disable autolube but decided to overhaul it instead. Cleaned mine out and compared with another 24/24 PX200 carb.
