Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

it turns out that i dont have a compression tester, but i can get one at harbor freight for like 15 bucks, nbd. im probably not going to even attept to start the engine for a couple days, until my jets and rollers that i ordered get here. im going to get my engine re-ported and polished at the local...

your bike is basically stock? all you have done is drilled the exhaust and removed variator plate? a stock unrestricted elite uses a #78 main jet. the restricted P model used a #68. when you look at the air filter cover, at the top you will see where the air flows through. right next to it there is...

dun rite wrote:out of curiosity, have you done a compression test?

im going to be doing that later i know it should be around 114-117 psi (7.0:1) correct?

if you want a fast bike buy a polini corsa pg long 7.1 gears ct chrome 28 oko kelly pulley sef ramp wit polini guides s trans or zx trans 15 center spring n 3000 clutch spring wit 42 or 39 gram weights. my dilemma is that im spending 40 bucks, and my scooter will get me from point a to point b. whe...

and i didnt rejet it but im looking at a kit on ebay that comes with an 85,90,95,100,105,and 110 so i have some options to see wht works best. do you think its worth getting?

ok i just put the carburetor on. its been soaking since 12 noon. its 1030 pm right now. i tried tuning it, and theres still no difference, it just bogs. should i buy a set of different main jets to test and see what works best with my engine?

i didnt see other post, so is this an elite? if so and you derestricted everything(vari,exhaust and airbox) did you up jet any? my elite runs with a 95 jet, but weird thing is my neighbor did all the same mods to his as i did and his wont run on 95 but on a 78. your restricted elite still has the 6...

I'm not sure exactly if all you did was open the exhaust and not the air filter as well. Did all the happen after you drilled out the exhaust. the air, fuel & exhaust flow in and out of the engine is designed to a balance by honda, by opening one and not the other would say that it is now out o...

try to keep your posts in one spot. just replied to this in your other post, although it didn't explain it as well as this one. sounds like the main jet is dirty or to small due to the exhaust derestriction. You are doing all this with the airbox and filter in place? yeah the airbox is attatched do...

a thorough carb cleaning might be in order. use the wikispreedia under technical. follow the carb cleaning guide and check out the picture tutorial. if theres a lot of scale & or varnish, get a carb cleaning bucket kit from auto parts store and soak the carb. overnight. spray cleaners don't alw...

Ok so i just fixed a vacuum leak on the bottom of the intake mani where it meets the other gasket for the reeds. I had it running all the way lean before this to accomodate for the vacuum leak, but now it wont run that way because it is fixed. However, i put the carburetor back to stock settings, th...

ill be getting one today actually. do you think it might be the fix to the problem?

ok so i downloaded the manual, and i did exactly what it said 1 7/8 out. i moved the screw from all the way lean to all the way rich and it still kept bogging out. i dont know what to do i tried every adjustment possible

holy s***.... looks like ur gonna spending some time with a MIG here shortly... lol Honda scooters, ftw

I have a 2000 Honda Elite S. It has the AF16E engine, and i just fixed a vacuum leak. the problem is that i need the stock carburetor adjustments/setting because it is tuned to run with the vacuum leak right now, and i cant seem to get the carburetor right.
