Another find...Verucci Veneto? 49cc

yellowxj · 05-07-2011, 06:01 PM

Picked up a bike for her today...$200.

Its a 2005 model w/ the original tank of gas in it...bleecchh...its got 33 miles on it. Just pulled the tank off and tried to clean out the valve/fuel line...think the carbs gummed up too...if I have to I'll take it to the shop but does anyone have links to video on how to clean the carb? I checked on youtube but must have missed the one I needed. Pics soon.

Is it a two stroke? Carb clean should be pretty standard.

www.scrappydogscooters.com has parts.

Weldangrind · 05-07-2011, 08:46 PM

Remove the carb, take your time and remove the bowl from the bottom. Spray everything liberally with aerosol carb cleaner and make sure it's perfectly clean.

Sounds like a good score!

yellowxj · 05-07-2011, 08:54 PM

4 stroke

The reserve valve in the fuel tank is blocked up a bit too I think...unscrewed it and sprayed some carb cleaner through it but I think there is a part that I can unscrew on the bottom too..going to take it all apart tomorrow after church :twisted:

Good luck getting through Church without thinking about your new bike. I can never do it.

katoranger · 05-08-2011, 09:28 PM

You remembered what day it was right?

katoranger · 05-08-2011, 09:31 PM

That has a honda horizontal engine.

Lots that can be done with that.

Does the carb resemble the one on your lifan?

yellowxj · 05-09-2011, 10:05 PM

Really looks like I could swipe the 70 off my sons Honda dirt bike and pep up the wifes scooter. Same style carb/motor pretty much. I dont remember the lifans carb...hope to get to work on it wednesday.

katoranger · 05-10-2011, 07:55 AM

You can easily pep it up if you want. Carbs are cheap.

Weldangrind · 05-10-2011, 10:20 AM

So are big bore kits.

katoranger · 05-10-2011, 06:10 PM

I got a 110 parts engine and a 22mm carb. :wink:

yellowxj · 05-17-2011, 10:06 PM

Cleaned the carb today...and the fuel tank valve...fired up on first try...wife took it on a test drive...turns out its a two speed? weird. hits about 35-40mph right now. Needs more tuning. She was happy to be riding though.

katoranger · 05-18-2011, 08:37 PM

That is pretty good speed for a 50cc engine. At least its flat in FL.
