Re: 97 Honda Elite 50 Carburetor hose routing

I hear ya.

I am kinda a purist. Like to use original parts and everything is in place out of the factory.

Elite 50 RPM, How to Measure

The manual states the RPM should be around 1,800

How are you folks measuring the RPM?

I have an inductive type device, that attaches to the spark plug wire.

1997 elite 50 bystarter

I believe the bystarter should have a seal at the end? Mine was missing, but pic shows it as I added one.

Correct?

Re: 1997 Honda Elite 50, float height

Thanks for the tips.

Carburetor is completely clean. Maybe the float was originally out of spec? Only has 131 miles, hard to believe either the float or inlet needle is worn.

Re: 1997 Honda Elite 50, float height

Bought the scooter non-running. So, I have not tried to start it as I am waiting on a gasket kit. Figured I would check all the specs and measurements. Notice the float was not within spec. Unfortuntately, there is no range, just a measurement of 12.2mm
