Re: Who Plays?

Re: Now what?
Just went through this with my 86' Spree... and it WAS the pipe from the Air Box to the Carb... sealed it tight and was off like a rocket Bear was the one to mention that to me too... and he was so right

Re: 86' Spree dies past half throttle...
Yes, as far as I can tell the air filter box and hose are attached correctly... and I re-oiled the filter last week... it was pretty clean already but thought it wouldn't hurt to do it. So too lean meaning too much air or too little? I'm kinda new to the Spree stuff/small engines.

86' Spree dies past half throttle...
Just got the Spree a few weeks ago and it runs ok... usually starts on the first try. I'm loving it...other than the fact that it wants to die if I give it too much gas while riding. I've cleaned the carb, air filter, checked hoses and kicked it a few times... but nothing seemed to help. I can get i...

Re: mopeds you ride (pics please)
Oregon law is a lot like Michigan... reads about the same. A Spree is considered a Moped even though it doesn't have pedals. Less than 50cc, 2-3 wheels, no more than 30 mph... and must be registered, titled, and insured and carries a Moped plate. So, though I usually call mine a scooter, it IS consi...
