Ignition Coil
Sorry if this has been posted before, but my ignition coil is turning into dust and my Stella is having a few issues, I think that may be the culprit. Will any scooter ignition coil work for a replacement for a Stella 4t or is there a specific one needed for the Stella 4t?

It looks like it has been mentioned in the thread already but I had a similar problem. It was the kill button and the evap system. The fix was replacing the kill button and removing the hose on the evap system to the air hose and sealing the hole on the air hose. This fixed the vapor lock issue and ...

Question About Extra Weight on Stella 4T
I have noticed when I have a passenger on my scooter it leaks a few drops of gas under the oil holder. When I ride solo it does not leak gas. This makes no sense to me. Maybe the extra weight is causing a bend in a hose, which I do not see any evidence of? Or maybe the extra weight for some reason i...

Well I think I got it fixed.

It has a pic of what became disconnected. I put gorilla glue on the air hose/manifold hole. I did not seal the small tube. I have not had any leakage that I have noticed.

The stalling would happen to me occasionally. It would always happen if I put too much gas in the tank. It would also sometimes randomly occur. One day it stopped and I never put much thought into it. However, one day when I took the cowl off the right side I noticed the rubber line from the evap sy...

OK, this is an interesting one. A Vespa made by PGO, Taiwan. According to the seller, this was made in 1984 and has a manual transmission. Looks really clean and 150cc 2-stoke? Yes, please.

Question about front wheel alignment
I have noticed my Stella 4T seems a little off lately when driving it. When I spin the front wheel it does not spin true, it goes left to right a bit. I put the spare on it and it does the same. Wasn't quite sure where to start to try to remedy this problem. Anyone have any suggestions?
