Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Ill check that- sounds like where it is coming from

there is a rattle that starts out slower when the engine is running at lower RPM's and then speeds up as the engine does. It kind of sounds like a rattling bolt somewhere- i've tightened all of the ones on the covers and no improvement. Any suggestions?

And thank you- I got the bulbs in and they work great!

Should I post some glamour shots?

OH oops ok- i think what I meant was a stage one bbk, but before that- what is the first step to gaining speed? (From easiest to most difficult/expensive)

Both lights now out- never been replaced- so i'm gonna put new bulbs in- what kind should I order?
Also where can I order a set of jets for the carb and a big bore kit (preferably 28mm)

Hi, just adding a few things- is the air filter absolutely necessary to run the spree or can i just lower the amount of air in the fuel mix? I took it out and it disentegrated in my hands... I can order another one though if necessary.

Thanks for your help- I had suspected that might be it- might also be crap from the gas tank. I did not know that an inline fuel filter existed- so thanks for the heads up.

I used the guide by Noiseguy from Wikispreedia.

Hey, I just tried to get a 1984 Honda spree running, and when I began, the gas tank was entirely rusdted and the carburetor was junked up.

I cleaned the carburetor with clr, denatured alcohol, and mineral spirits and it looks almost like new. Then I took off the carburetor and cleaned out all ...
