nifty 50 (spree) stalls when stop and brake

Post by bbau78 »

Hi guys, new to the forum, from Australia our nifty 50 would be like your spree over there, anyway when you stop her with the brakes or slow right down it stalls.. any ideas ??? also how to tune it in, if that's the problem... found a wild idle screw on side which makes the wheel spin faster and I also thought there maybe a mixture screw as well but l don't know where that is, the is a little one you can screw near the idle on... any help would be great

thanks again

Download the factory workshop manual from this site below for free, and it will show you the location of the idle mixture screw on the carb.. it will also tell you how to properly set the idle speed and many other things you will need to know:

The Spree workshop manual itself is at:

This sounds really dumb but try grounding the engine to the frame directly. In the past ive had issues with the engine stalling at a dead stop. Also you cant be too grounded.
