Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

it doesnt have a CVT, its a two speed auto.

I have an 86 spree and 82 express. The spree runs great with no problems and is in near mint condition although the express couldnt be further from the same. The engine, carb and transmission are actualy in seemingly good condition although various problems seemed to always appear when riding it ...

well, what i realized the main problem was was that the air fuel mixture is much more precise and signifigant than i had assumed. The problem ended up being that the air filter cover wasnt sealed well enough that was causing the bog downs and stall, after sealing that up (with duct tape) it ran on ...

nevermind, fixed it

I have a 1982 honda express tht will start up and run poorly for about 25 to 30 seconds and then it dies out but will start right up again. Any suggestions as to what the problem may be?

I know people are probably going to make fun of me for asking this but, What is a dio? Where can i get one? and how much do they cost?

Ya sory, i dont have a manual and i didnt know there were ones on the site. I found that right after i posted and i put it at 1 3/4 and it runs well again.

I was reading on all hte different muffler modifications that help by causing less restricion on the exhaust. I figured to test if this helped i would take off the muffler compleatly and run it. After doing this it went no faster, posssibly even slower and at full speed backfired and sputtered. It ...

On the carb which screw is the idle speed and which is the air fuel. How many turns should each be at?

Thanks

ok thanks

THe first problem on my 86 spree is that occasionaly after hitting hard bumps or just randomly my spree looses electrical power and just comes to a dead stop, i previously posted the problem thinking it was a problem in the carborator. I cleaned the carb as directed actualy twice. Unfortunataly the ...

alrighty, thanks again.
