Anyone have a Vino 125?

Post by DennisD »

Finally got my Buddy started up. It and my Vino 125 have been setting up in the garage since my accident last April. My Vino 125 is another story. It wants to run but when started it runs a few seconds then starts to balk and fuel runs out of what I think is a vent hose coming from the carb. Then it dies. Messy, stinky, frustrating. Do I have to go into the carb? Never done that before but...

There is a Vino 125 forum and a fair amount of information about troubleshooting and repairs.

well unless you treated the gas with seafoam prior to stroage you will have to drain the gas and clean the carb
no doubt about it you have stale gas and a gunked up carb
