Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Thanks for the info.I tested the bystarter and needle does not move when I put battery power on it (yellow to pos-Green to neg).I have a bystarter from a 85 will that work?It does have diffrent connections but I can splice in old leads.Thanks

Thanks,I will go out and bench test the Bystarter now,Can you Disconnect the bystarter and will it start and run without it?

Thank you ,

OK, I got to work on carb replaced neddle valve in carb.Gas not leaking but very hard to start and when it does start it runs for a few minutes then dies.It now stays at a steady idle but for some reason it dies.At times when you first start it and give it some throttle it just bogs out.Any ideas ...

Went back out and double checked everything.Air box cover a little loose so I tightened it.Let engine run for about a half hour and it would go from normal idle to very high idle without touching the throttle it would run high for about a minute then go back to normal.Then gas starting leaking again ...

Brand new air filter,air box is tight,hose from carb to air box fits good.Any other ideas?

I have a 1986 honda spree nq 50.Gas was leaking from the carb overflow tube.Ordered a float kit (did not know the little valve did not come in the kit) anyways i replaced the float.Carb is not leaking,but it seems to want to stall out and bogs down when you give it gas.any ideas what maybe wrong? I ...

Sorry,end result was I took carb apart again and cleaned the float put it back together and it runs great.

OK Guys it up a running like new.Thanks for all your help.

OK throttle valve is fixed.Engine is running but I have gas coming out of a tube on the bottom of the carb bowl,any ideas.Thanks for your help,I'am going to get this thing right yet.I did take the carb apart and cleaned it did I do something wrong,putting it back together? I was very carefull.

HELP! Which is bad.When I look down the throat of the carb,and turn the throttle handle,the throttle valve does not move.But the I see the the end of the throttle cable going up and down.Do I have a bad valve or cable or both.I have taken the carb apart and cleaned with same results.

In a 1986 spree NQ50 is the throttle valve and cable all one unit or can you replace throttle valve and jet neddle. The book say's after 85 the cap cannot be seperated from assembly without causing damage to the cable.Does this mean I have to replace the the whole cable with valve attached?

Thanks bear it was a bad starter motor.Now onto the carburator. thanks again!

Thanks for the info I will give these suggestions a try.I have fixed the tail light problem.Is the solenoid built into the starter?or is this a seperate part? Thanks Again

I just got a 1986 honda spree NQ50.Which has not been started in about 10 years.I first thing I did was reconditioned the gas tank.Took side panels off and noticied some melted green wires.I proceeded to try to rewire wire these melted wires.
Coming out of the harness there is a thin green wire ...
