Thanks for the support!
Super helpful and perfectly concise. This is the quality UA-cam was made for.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the positive comment 😊
Jeff, We can never thank you enough for these videos.
Couldn't do it without you guys. Thanks for the support!
@@VespaMotorsport Is Robot's name Jeff?! Doesn't matter. He'll always be Robot, or Mr. Robot to me.
Great video, thanks! I have a 2008 S150 that I bought in perfect condition with only 125 km on it! Having hard cold starting issues now. I cleaned the carb but may have missed the tiniest jet! Your change to a vacuum activated petcock was a nifty work-around to the damaged fuel pump. You are a big inspiration, thanks again!
That was a great video
I wish that I lived near your shop so I could deal with you guys in person.
I would be a customer for life . Thanks
Mark from Maryland
Maybe one day!
Thank you for the long video robot I appreciate it and the comprehensive intake on everything you're doing in these videos thank you so much
Glad you like them!
I love your videos as a home scooter mechanic your such a help when it comes to vespas if I need parts or even a new scooter, scooter west and your dealership is where I’m buying from.
Awesome, glad to help! Thanks for the support!
Me: Thinking about an S150 as a second scoot (GTS300 Super in shop since 05/20/2021 for repair after accident, still awaiting parts).
Watch several VM videos about S150s and their idiosyncrasies.
Me: Thinking about a *fuel-injected* S150….
(Once again, great work, Robot.)
Wow! I bought a 1974 BMW R90/6. It needed work. I rode it for two months while I collected needed parts for it. My buddy is a airhead master. We put it on the lift and he started looking it over. He laughed. I said what’s funny. He said I was just wondering what was holding this front axle in. He then pulled it out with ease. I rode that bike for two months.
A lot of good tips, ideas and what not to do on this video. Thanks robot
Glad it was helpful!
Good morning. Enjoying your very informative channel!!
Glad you enjoy it!
Can't wait for some more scooterwest videos
Thanks, we're working on it!
Thanks !saved me hours of tinkering
I am following few tips to repair like professional not fully ,scooter called Aprilia in India ,this is 150 cc vespa engine, happily enjoying my repair work and confidentiality replace the part and save money .scooter is working very well
Have you face missing problem?
GOOD JOB ROBOT..RETIRED LARRY IN INDIANAPOLIS..
Although I miss the assembly of the vacuum fuel pump in the video I have to say, the video describes approximately my experiences with my Vespa GT. Countless hours of tinkering and at the end the carburetor is replaced :). In contrast my PX: First kick and the engine is running ;)
Shout out to Capital City Scooters, Cbus Oh. They just did a deep service on my lx150 w Scooter West products. Vespa runs like new!
Hi Robot, thanks for another amazing video. Could you do a video about what to do and check after the Vespa drop off with engine running and parked. Thank you again
Great video once again! Could you please tell us why they moved to electric fuel pump on a carburetor setup? What are the advantages compared to vacuum tap? Thank you!
Great video. Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
I feel the pain, Robot!!!
This dude looks demented after working on so many vespas. I don’t think I would trust anyone else on UA-cam lol
They don't call him Robot for nuthin!
This scooter probably needed a few hours re-commissioning by an experienced technician at a modest cost. It looks as if the owner didn't want to spend anything an now they are left with an even more expensive bill, compared to dong it properly in the first place. I guess there's a real good lesson here! Thankfully, it's likely to be repaired properly, after all!
Would love to see a video of this ultrasonic parts cleaner mr. robot. this clip is Designer approved ❤️🛵🤖
It's in a few of our videos somewhere...we'll try to feature it in a video at some point. Thanks!
Nice video
Thanks for watching 👍
I'm leaking fuel on my LX 150 from the accelerator pump as you mention at cca 19:30. I've already replaced the float bowl as I tought the accelerator pump mechanism is leaking and I still have leaks with the new float bowl. Does the rubber bellow part keep the fuel in or it should not be leaking at all? Possibly the float is overfilling the carb? Thanks!
Can you male a video tutorial how ti change coolant on a Beverly 350? Thanx
I feel your pain I have put so many cars back together after people attempted to fix it themselves it would cost a great deal less money if people did not do that.
To be fair Robot makes a ton of vids to help people fix it themselves. Unfortunately whoever messed up this scoot never watched any of them.
What's the part number for the diaphragm and clip on the accelerator pump mentioned at 19:32 ?
I wish you would have talked about the battery terminal screws. Are the M5 or M6? Do you carry them as spare parts? They are hard to find.
Right, just used the hardwarre off the old battery, when I lost one of the nuts. If you haven't replaced a batteery before you might find out you need to slide a small screwdriver under the nut to steady it.
Can I use the parts in the description of this video for 2008 Vespa S150
Did you remove the fuel pump entirely?
My customer has an 09 150s like this one but as soon as we give it throttle it dies. So strange. I hooked up a cheapy Amazon carb that looks identical and it ran great so we know the original carb is the problem. Any idea why a carb would idle but nothing after that? No fuel in primary circuit maybe?
Electric guitar sting wire may be able to clean your idle jet.
I have problem with my Vespa LX Italy 2009, sometimes it's not working or hard to starting if I don't use it daily. Do you know what cause this? Is it the trouble with the fuel pump or carburator or anything else? Need your advice.
Can you put a rear rack on a 2008 Vespa 150 s?
I am restore it my 07 Piaggio mp3 250ie it been sitting in garage for 13 years! Dealer use to rent it out and put it up for sale had 003708 miles on it!
I'm having a problem on my scooter. It's an aprilia sr 150 with a carb. On accelerating sometimes it feels like it's skipping or stuttering for a second. This usually happens when accelerating from a stop or when slowing down then accelerating. Care to give me a Idea Robot or a solution. Big fan of your work! Appreciate for your informative videos. If anyone can help. I'd really appreciate it.
Air in fuel line due to low fuel level in fuel tank?
The spring clips on small hoses work far better than screw type clamps because they continuously maintain the tension, screw-type clamps has the hose ages lose their tension causing leaks.
One of the fundamental problems I have encountered with do-it-yourselfers is they remove parts heat shields all kinds of things from vehicles. I don't need that the fact is if it wasn't needed the engineer would not have put it on there because putting things on vehicles cost money and they're trying to make a profit.
Well said, thanks for watching!
VespaLX150 2014 model won't start what's the problem
I bought a brand new 2020 primavera 150 and the engine stalled after a mile of riding and doesnt turn on no more. Pressing the start button just creates a sputtering sound. It only has 2 miles on the odometer. Any ideas what could have caused this?
Did u turn gas to on position?
How much would it be to ship a Vespa to u

Brilliant help, would nt like the owners bill
Ciao complimenti per i tuo video per una maggiore fruibilità puoi mettere i sottotitoli in italiano? Grazie
The owner gave a 👎🏼
@john harris $230 from Scooterwest so you're about half right. Owner probably picked up that bike for a song and still came out ahead even after a new carb. Lesson learned for them.
No new videos, surprised?
At 32.54 the bloke giving the f*** off fingers behind robots back , he needs a warm ear !!!
That why buying all the parts for it! The Belt and rollers dry out and crack the fuel was bad flush fuel tank replace fuel pump system! Only things left flush out antifreeze and order other key. Mr. Robot
