Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Im going through the EXACT same process right now, jakub....BBK, Mixing 50:1 with oil pump, smoking pretty good, oil seeping from exhaust connection, looking for oil pump delete plug remedy...ALL THE SAME! I did 3-4 heat cycles and started riding it very gently at low to half throttle. Keeping it be...

I know this topic has been beat to death but heres my concern. Since apparently an Oil Pump Delete plug doesn't exist for the NQ50, Im told to use just a rubber stopper in the hole. First off, Im not doing this. I read wikispreedia and understand how the plug needs to fill the internal crankcase vol...

That plug doesn't fit the Spree. Does anyone know where I can get one that DOES fit a NQ50? Can you post a pic of what one looks like that's been done? Id like to "dump the pump".

I went looking for a plug for the oil pump hole and didn't see one. I guess I'd also need to plug off the outlet line to the carb. Can someone provide a link to where I can get those? Someone suggested SSS but I didn't see one on the website.

thx Wheelman. Ill change it and report back.

I need a new petcock and strainer. If I go to my local O'Reilley's auto parts, what should I ask for? I know if I ask for a Spree petcock they wont have one and will look at me weird.

PERFECT! THANK YOU!!!

I will be doing the gear swap in the ol 85' Spree and cant find a decent write-up. Ive never done it before and would like a bit of guidance. Service manual is useless. Also, while I have everything apart, I want to replace the belt and possibly the clutch too. Which belt/clutch should I get and whe...

Yep, just got my Taz 48mm bbk in my 85 NQ50 on Thursday. Trying to go through the break-in period now. It really wasn't too tough but there were a few head scratcher moments along the way. Oh, and DONT put a ring on upside down or put your piston in backwards. Ask me how I know.

Yeah, I have 50/1 in the tank now and it smokes. Its not terrible but it smokes more than it did before the bbk.

So if 32/1 is the proper mix for my set-up after "break-in", how much does the stock oil pump produce so I know how much additional I need to add?

85 Spree with a fresh 48mm BBK installed. I plan on keeping the stock oil pump on (for now) and just adding some oil to the fuel to compensate for the upgrade. Taking into account what the stock pumps delivers, what mixture should I have in the fuel tank? Also, during the "break-in" period...

Service Manual says to "lube" the starter gears. Could that be the culprit?

Yes, still running oil pump and just adding oil to the gas tank to total 50/1 together.

Did the new bushing solve your problem? Where can I get one online?
