Greetings:
As I understand it, the Aero/Elite carb's bystarter fouls something on the engine side, so it won't fit.

Re: Looking for an engine.
Greetings:
Same engine as on the 86 and 87 Aero, and the Elites from '88 to '93. '85 Aero had no kickstarter pedal.

Sounds like it could be a dodgy electrical connection somewhere? Start at the coil and spark plug wires to see...

Greetings:
Yes the bystarter is on the wrong side of the venturi. It's for an Aero or Elite.

He sent me one of those Contra spring bearing seats too. RIP indeed. Don't suppose a pic of that Elusive Aero is forthcoming?

Re: 89 elite front rim on Aero question
Greetings: Memory grows dim from 2008, but I'm certain I used a Metropolitan front rim on my 1987 Aero. If I recall correctly I just had to use an Elite 1994+ brake panel, because the Aero's front brake was smaller in diameter. I don't recall ever getting a 1987-1993 Elite rim. I wanted the Tubeless...

Re: Chinese Carb Success(?)
Greetings: 3 months in from replacement with eBay $20 Chinese carb. Still doesn't leak (like my particular Honda PA carb did). Still starts first kick, this time after sitting over a week, although it did threaten to stall before reviving. Also still likes some throttle when starting a warm engine. ...

Hmm, hard to tell on a video what you're feeling. Seals installed will create a little friction, though.

Re: Oil in carburetor
Greetings: If storing the scooter for a long winter, I recommend draining the tank completely, then run the engine until it stalls. A dry carb won't gum up over the winter and require a carb cleaning. If you do get a fuel shut-off installed, measure out some Stabil and put it in the tank to preserve...

Re: Chinese Carb Success(?)
Greetings: Just under 4 weeks, and fired up with a single kick this morning having sat for 3-4 days. Mystery why this is no longer an issue. Weird that it likes throttle to fire when warm, whereas the Honda would NOT want any. Otherwise: Still runs fine, but I'm NOT selling the Honda PA carb just ye...

Re: Chinese Carb Success(?)
Greetings: Another weird thing with this carb - in a good way. So far since it was installed, the scooter starts when cold on first kick. EVEN when it hasn't run in a couple of days. The PA carb would always "dry out" and it would take 10-25 kicks to prime and start. So far no leaks from t...

Re: Headlights and turn signals suddenly don’t work
Greetings:
If the symptoms appeared suddenly, it sounds like the alternator has failed. (or a wire connection - hopefully) That would explain both the 10-volt reading on the battery AND the headlight not working. Good luck with the alternator.
