bumpppp

ok, so i wasnt able to do a full "plug chop" but i was able to put a brand new bpr6hsa spark plug in the spree and ride it around the block a few times... the scooter acted up after about 2 minutes and stalled out on me. I pulled the plug and it is whitish on the top. Here is a link to a picture for ...

I did not do a plug chop. Could i do this with the scooter on its rear stand or is it best to be moving?

care to elaborate on that a little bit bear?

From doing a little more research, it looks like my plug color means that it is too rich, meaning the carb needs adjusted... can someone instruct me on what exactly i need to adjust? Also if the jet is the one that is supposed to be in there (65) and the plug is correct (Bpr6hsa). thanks

Ok, so i finally got the plug out and its very oily and black. the plug type is Bpr6hsa. I also took a picture

So i tore apart the carb and cleaned it well. I also removed the main jet and it looks like it is a 65? I took the scooter for a ride afterwards and it still was bogging down... adjustments? different jet? What do I have to do to get this thing running the way it should? Thanks for your help guys

Well my filter cover finally came in... I installed it and took the scooter for a ride. It seemed to be doing much better than before and accelerated smoothly all the way to about 30. I rode for about 3 minutes and it started acting up and bogging.... then died. There was only a tiny bit of gas in ...

brake down the carb and set it up by the book ... new hi jet and pin in the middle ..
what was you top speed with the pop cap thing ????

The scooter would climb to just about 30 and not bog at all with the bottle cap setup that it had when i bought it. Now after installing the ...

yes it did, But the hole was about the size of a quarter, which as you know is just about the size of the intake hose. So it really did next to nothing.... maybe the previous owner had adjusted the carburetor so it would run like that? Im really not sure... I just want it to run good with the ...

if that is the case, why does it run great with no filter and no cover? No bogging.

Well I have a cover coming in (Supposedly, i purchased off of a member but he hasn't got it to me/returned my emails) when i put the cover on I would think that it would even bog more being that there would be less airflow coming through. Do I need to adjust the carburetor pin? if so, how many ...

When i bought my Spree it did not have a cover or airfilter.... just a bottle cap with a hole in it over the intake. Well i decided to pick up an airfilter and now the spree bogs down past 3/4 throttle. Im just running the airfilter, not the cover. What should I do to correct this problem? I know ...
