Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Well riding home yesterday from work, I got caught in the rain , I was wot about half a mile then turned off the highway,also right before goin wot I had got some gas,, anyways, turned off the highway and get on the gas and it's starting to sputter like an ignition problem or misfire or something.. So I turn it off turn it on go for a ride and it's still sputtering like held back,, so I change my plug and try to start it again and it straight up jus will not start,, I'm getting spark and gas ...any ideas?? Would reeds be something to look at next,, ? A few times it sounded like it wanted to them dies off, after kicking forever,, also starting fluid does nothing!! Appreciate the help!!

I kno the big dawgs can help

sounds like your getting too much fuel, might have to get in there and tear the motor down, i would check the reeds, flywheel, and at least take the head off and see if everything is on tight, what type of filter are you running i have a feeling if you are running a pod filter you probly sucked up water

It's the same setup I've had.. It's a uni pod filter..

Figured it out

Please share

what was the prob? im interested.

It was the gap on my plug.. I overlooked it so many times because I was so irritated.. I fixed the gap.. Kicked once n it fired..

I would also suspect the gas you got. If it was running fine, you got gas and a problem arises with running, poor quality or wet fuel is always a suspect. Oh and regapping the plug would overcome poor quality fuel but not wet fuel.

yea the fuel was a big concern..but the d*** gap on the plug was all the way shut..im guessin tryin to put the plug in with the angle it has i must of hit it i dont know..
