vespa spitting back
Posted: Tue Feb 05, 2013 8:27 pm
Just taken in a very straight Motovespa P200E 1981.
Was put away in 1986.
Got it started it wont rev and it spits fuel 3 feet in the air without the filter on all over the seat and back light.
So far have tried 2 spotless carbs.2 CDI boxes plugs and HT leads etc.
Have filled the crankcase opening with 2 stroke to check the sealing pad 20 minutes without loss.
Gearbox oil doesnt smell of petrol and have have checked the timing.
Any ideas !!!!
Possible piston rings or bore damage 30000kms 22000miles from new ??.
Thanks in advance.
