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. Lots of swarf in the tray indents under autolube mechanism, but look at the finish to the trays under mechanism, wear to the arm nipple (and arm wear?) and differences to the cog faces(one has a dip).

Cleaned out tray, swapped over to the non worn arm and the flat face cog. New gasket and all appears to be drawing in oil and working fine.

Was always told to leave it alone, just wondered if everyone else did a regular clean/service of theirs?

Guess no one does it?

Good post! Stupidly I never did the above. A slightly leaking oil seal along with 1% 2 stroke with petrol for the kit kept my engine alive. I was travelling with a guy who wondered whether his p200 or my t5 172 had burned more 2 stroke. I wasn't a happy camper when I removed the oil cap to have a look and the tank was still full to the brim. We'd covered 350ish miles! Each to their own but on a scoot with more than 15 thousand miles I'd be taking apart the pump as shown in this thread to investigate.

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 out there.

I always remove mine and premix, I like to keep it simple and reliable 1 jug for 5 lts of fuel
