Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

I have to increase the idle for my 86 spree to start and then lower it once it starts up to get it to idle normal.

is this made by honda? another company? or a custom thing? thanks.

tried putting 65 back in just to see if it would run, but nothing changed.

spark plug is a few months old, carb has been cleaned several times, airbox is on, the last it ran was when i had a 65 main jet in the carb, when i changed to 68 it started giving me these problems.

will start if i give it full throttle then die after a couple seconds, after a few more tries it wont start at all, but if i empty the bowl it will go back to starting and stopping after a couple os seconds, any help would be appreciated, thanks.

will try again, but is that the only thing that can be causing my symptoms? are there other things i should also check? thanks for the help bear.

i have done that 3 times already

ok, here are the symptoms,

1. as of today my 86 spree will not start
2. when it did start and run, some liquid was coming out of the exhaust and it would cut in and out during acceleration as well as when i was at top speed and i would always have to adjust the idle everytime i turned it on, it ...

at first it would bog around 20-25 mph and cut in and out, now as soon as i give it gas it bogs, no power, help please.

Could not find it in the manual, anyone know? thanks

Everytime i would give my spree gas it would shut off, so I cleaned carb, changed air filter and now it doesnt idle unless i turn the idle up really high and when i give it gas a lot of white smoke comes out, any suggestions? thank you

86 spree

anyone know what size the the clip (e-clip) holding the throttle needle is?

just got it in the mail, looks like its already soaked in something, does it come soaked in gear oil?

between petcock and carb. opinions on this......thanks
