Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Here's how it looks now, I can't seem to get it any more "glossy" but it is cleaner.

What's the verdict on this?

Few more pics

Got it off, took pics. They speak for themselves. I took it apart & it's soaking.

Thank you, I will do the following and read into the link. Any tips on pulling carb off w/o getting fuel everywhere?

Hello all, I have an '85 aero nb50m that I just got all back together & saved from the scrap. I can get it to start & run with throttle 1/2 way down or so. Wont idle or start on its own without giving it gas. Also, while it is running there is a bit of fuel trickling out of carb overflow. So...

Better video, starts by giving it gas. About 1/2 throttle and runs by holding at 1/2 throttle. As soon as I let go it dies. Still leaks gas while its running.

Its on charger now, all this trying drained it

https://youtu.be/8agEVxH2B8Y Here's the scoop. I did research on the bystarter and figured it probably isnt warming up, which im not sure that it is. I did an infrared temp reading & it doesnt change. Maybe it still is. Anyway, checked my green & yellow connections (shown in earlier thread p...

I've tried the settings on carb to 1 3/4 th out and 1 1/4 out. Various air filter configurations too. H...

Greetings: Honda changed the tank fitting diameter in 1986 for ALL models, not just the Spree. The 1985 petcocks don't fit later tanks, and vice-versa. If you have an '85 you must get a 1985 petcock or a later model fuel tank as the '85 petcocks may not be easy to find. Yeah I understand, I got a n...

She runs!!! Took a few short bursts with the elec start since thats all it has. Ran for a few short seconds. Airfilter & cover should be here in a few days. Oil to pump is good. Spark is good. I'll post a link to a video asap. Cheers!!

Yup, im going with the on/off/reserve style no vacuum line. M14 equivalent to 16950-187-671

Thanks! !

Hmm, i'll have to research how this is done. Heard about the 11mm on/off valve
