my scooter stinks!

[delux68]

i have an all stock 1986 aero50, I've had it for a few years now and its been great! i'ts never really given me any trouble and i've done almost no maintence on it. I've always kept it outside under an overhang but now it lives in the garage. The problem i'm having is that its stinking up the whole garage! It smells life fuel/exhaust. its always smelled like this but didnt matter outside. ther eare no leaks or puddles under the bike that i can see, but it is pretty dirty with caked on dirt/oil/stuff under the plastics. i'm thinking theres gotta be something i can do to eliminate the smell. any suggestions?

It's wash and degrease the underside for a start. All that crud is a sponge for vaporous lubricants and fuel. A clean scooter with no leaks should not smell up the garage. Once you get it clean, the chances of finding a leak are better.

i've been wanting to take all the plastics off to degrease it and pressure wash everything. any specific spots that are prone to leaks?
