My scoot runs so good now I think I better do the plug chop. These 2strks always run best just before they seize.

hey Art I completly dismantled the carb and cleaned it, its back up to speed, thanks. I looked around for some torch tip cleaners but couldnt find any and the welding shops were all closed. It looks like (printed on the jet) I have a #80 main jet I'll have to get the tip cleaners and work on that. For now its just fine I walk away from all other 50cc bikes and reliability is nice too.

Sounds like I'll be in to it this weekend and I will figure out what I have. I had to rebuild my sprint motor too those booges from asia are a little scary but I have heard some success stories sounds like you might be ok. The paint on mine is bad but I'm going to leave it. I shined it up and it looks pretty good. Thanks for the pointers.

Yah not many know about the people 50 but I like it better than the zuma, I had a Ruckus for a while, slow, too many strokes but still cool. I have a 74 vespa sprint too, a barn find, 4k original miles and paint, its very cool but there is something to say about modern scoots (easy). I got the air box off its tight in there. It shows I have a 85 stock jet where do I get the right parts- #90 or #95? SW, Provo?

I have just under 5k on the Od Ive had this scoot for 5 years. I suspected carb cleaning . I used to talk on another forum a few years ago but there just wasn't much action. Was happy to find this one. I did a stage 2 on a Zuma several years ago had a soft seize, fixed it, rode it, but got tired of the noise so I bought the ppl and sold the Zuma. So what should I soak that carb in?

My 00 ppl has never been as fast as my 05 but now its just getting bad on the steep hills, The rollers and the belt have about 2K kil on them and they look fine. This is a derestriced scoot but no up grades except the boss, Its seems normal on the flat about 45 but the hills it just is a dog.
