Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Thats the way mate, dont let it get on top of you!

Yep, I've got a nice blue spark. Will whip the reeds out this weekend.
How should I go about the adjusting of the float level?

Just been out to the shed and have established that I have compression. I have also adjusted the air fuel screw to the recommended level ( 1 7/8 turns out from full in), loosened off the idle fully, and yet I am still flooding rhe chamber each time. Even with one press of the button, the plug is imm...

Will be left alone with the garage this weekend so hoping to make a decent attempt at acheiving ignition. Will be posting pics once all is back together , after all, thats why I started the thread as a "see what I did and nick the ideas and hints" guide for other restorer types out there. ...

d***, I could have got a running one for $20 bucks less DOH!!!!
Yeah, the red one is what I inherited. Guess the wife wont let me buy another one "just for parts"

I shall consider myself enlightened then.

I'll go and sit my red face in the corner then

You only had the paint and you were more popular

Very nice Have you got the matching helmet and jacket?

I my have been led down the garden path by the parts dealer- I went to get a NGK BPR6HS as per the downloaded service manual, but all he had in stock was a BPR4HS. The current plug in the head is a BP5HS

I'll definitly try that thanks.
I did buy a hotter spark plug in order to get a cleaner burn, but the spark lead wont fit the new plug:(

Very nice
Well done that man. The two tone look will require cleaning to keep the best of apperances but I reckon its worth it. Chuck a good polish on it and the gunge will wipe off anyhoo

I dream of idle, I cant get ANY ignition!
