Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Edit: Just purchased these 1/4" vacuum line caps off of ebay to plug the ends of the oil pump lines.

Anyone have a spare oil pump with good seals that they could sell to me? Might decide to just replace it

Interesting. Looking forward to getting this thing running again. Thanks for all the help!

Please tell me that you BOTH aren't this stupid.

Definitely would consider running premix if I can find an oil pump plug. Anyone have one and have a write up on how to install it?

Awesome! How much for part #4 shipped to 54729?

Kickstart wont work without the piece youre missing. On the diagram below, you are missing part #4....Therefore, you cannot use part #3....Put your cover back on WITHOUT part #3....then try your electric starter. http://www.partzilla.com/parts/search/Honda/Scooter/1986/NQ50+A/DRIVE+FACE/parts.html ...
