How to clean the air filter on a PIAGGIO Motorcycle to improve performance?
To clean the air filter on your PIAGGIO Motorcycle: dismantle the sponge, wash with water and shampoo, then soak in a mixture of 50% petrol and 50% of specific oil (Selenia Air Filter Oil), then squeeze lightly without wringing, let it drip dry and refit. A dirty air filter can cause poor engine performance.
What to do if the rear wheel of my PIAGGIO Motorcycle spins at idle?
If the rear wheel of your PIAGGIO Motorcycle spins at idle, it could be due to: * Idling rpm being too high: Adjust the engine idle speed and the CO%, if necessary. * Clutch fault: Check the springs / clutch masses.
Why is my PIAGGIO Motorcycle performing poorly?
Poor performance in your PIAGGIO Motorcycle can stem from several factors. A dirty carburettor, damaged fuel pump or vacuum valve can cause this issue; consider removing, washing with solvent, and drying with compressed air, or replacing the affected components. Excessive scale in the combustion chamber may also be the cause, requiring descaling of the cylinder, piston, head, and valves. Other potential issues include incorrect timing or worn timing system elements (re-time the system or replace worn parts), a blocked silencer (replace it), or a blocked or dirty air filter (dismantle and clean the air filter). A defective floating valve (check the proper sliding of the float and the functioning of the valve), automatic starter failure (check mechanical movement, electric connection, and fu...
