Same thing that kept my Aero 80 down Tjamz, a little tiny tiny bit of gunk, blocked my slow jet, EVEN though the jet was just put in, dirt must have come in the carb and settled in it.

More confusion :confused:

This scooter is truly a mix of interesting parts.

I am trying to figure out if this a polini corsa or contessa.

The head has the markings of a contessa........but the ex port is stamped with a SP (corsa)

Maybe the PO used the contessa head to lower the compression?

Just ordered/bought my crank bearings from Autotech on eBay.

Now I need to figure out what the crank seals are (Honda part number/s)...

Once I get all the parts, it should only take a couple days to put it all together. :thumbwink:

Were you able to get ahold of VT cycles?
