    Thank you very much man. Got a 1986 spree from my uncle and I was going half insane trying to figure out why it was dying after giving it gas. I'm not very good with cars or scooters but watching this made it so easy to follow along and now it runs like it's supposed to. Thanks again!

    Thanks man. I inherited a 1985 Honda spree from my uncle, but it hasn't been started in a couple years. Same situation. So this is really helpful to get her up and running. Thank you and wish me luck!

    I got a free one from the side of the road with only 2k miles, it cranks but the carburetor is not functioning correctly and the starter scratches after multiple tries (almost seems like the engine is building too much pressure) any tips? I’m gonna follow this video to clean my carb but I’m not sure if my starter needs work, it looks like it was just loose and not fully inserted into the starter motor but I’m no mechanic (it’s my first project). Hahaha idk if I’ll get any response but loved this video thought I’d ask

    I just finished restoring a 1990 Elite E (SB50P), and I've sonic cleaned the carb, and have cleaned it with carb cleaner twice, The Pilot jet keeps clogging on me; I've cleaned all the tanks, replaced the fuel line, cleaned the fuel filter; I'm about to clean the carb for a third time, and replace every frickin' line that I haven't yet (save for the oil line). I'm told the Jet is a press fit, and the only way to properly clean it is to remove the pilot jet. Any advice? It's gotten to where half the time I need to unplug the bystarter to keep it running so I can get home because the pilot circuit clogs up again. Oh, and I'm running Klotz 2-stroke injection oil, the snowmobile stuff, which is a little better than the scooter stuff they make; It's easier for me to get locally. as for fuel, I run 91 octane premium fuel with zero ethanol.

    Nope...not many 2 strokes have timing chains , camshafts, rocker arms, or overhead spring valves. 2 strokes are way easier to rebuild then 4 strokes. Best you can possibly do is a whole engine swap. ... I would just buy a complete used broke down gy6 scooter for cheap & rebuild it yourself. Stock gy6 parts are super cheap. Or Consider rebuilding your 2 stroke. They are super easy.
