Scooter only starts with spray.!?

Hi all. On other Dio, it fires up for a second or 2, only if I spray some flammable spray like carby cleaner in the mouth of the carby. So I know engine and spark are fine. I suspect fuel is not getting to the carby. What should I do and check?
Many thanks.

Re: Help. Scooter starts but doesn't rev.

Well, after removing carby, removing jets and cleaning it all, reinstalling it. I thought surely this has to fix it now.... But NO! So I remembered someone said something about exhaust. I had a spare pipe lying around, so I thought it couldn't hurt to try... It's only 2 bolts and 2 nuts. So I replac...

Re: Help. Scooter starts but doesn't rev.

I would clean the carb out with some compressed air and carb cleaner. Also make sure the pilot jet is clean. Then clean the air filter. Do that and tell us if that fixed the problem. If not we will find the problem. I would also check the muffler for carbon build up. Taz Hi Taz, thanks for your adv...

Help. Scooter starts but doesn't rev.

Hi All. I'm at a loss with my Honda Dio SK50 SR. AF18E. (Completely stock.) It starts easily, and idles, but when you give it throttle, it tries to rev but doesn't and then wants to stall. I put a new spark plug in, no change. I pulled the head off and replaced a suspect looking gasket, no change. A...

Variator question

G'day all. Thought i'd stop by and say hello. Hello. :hi: I have recently renewed my interest in rebuilding my scooter. A 1992 Honda Dio SR. I bought it as a parts bike, as it was stripped down a fair bit. (although I think i may have bitten off more than i can chew :confused: ) No dash, handle bars...
