Hi all, yesterday I started the old girl up (lis150 with muggy 225, scootrs exhaust with sterling end can and 30mm delly) she fired up straight away and I ran her for 30 mins or so, set tickover and she was running as sweet as usual and then put her away. Then this morning tried to start her up agin but she didn't want to start, I could smell 2 stroke and on looking at the kickstart I noticed a regular drip coming from what looked like the end can gasket. On closer inspection it's coming from the bracket that the end can fastens to. Apart from needing a new pipe (which just showed me I've got a crack), anyone got any idea why the pipe is full of fuel? I've checked the float as I thought it had sprung a leak but that's fine and works as it should, I also cleaned the starter jet . I've got a good spark and now I'm stumped as to why it won't start as I done nothing to it since it last ran.
Lambretta's don't ya just love 'em.!
