That thing sat outside in the elements for at least 4 years so it's seen its fair share of water.

Also looks like it's missing a fuel pump. So I might be ordering more parts for her. I might have one for you. I’ll check when I get home. |

I treated it like the proverbial red headed step child because of its 4 stroke motor. I'm actually surprised that it held up as well as it did, all things considered. It goes to show Honda's quality. |

Hey spaz, did you ever try to get it to start? What happened when you turned the key? When I do it I get nothing, just one brake light flash as soon as I turn the ignition on then no horn or turn signals or nothin.

I have noticed it's a top mount motor. So worst case scenario I'm bolting up a minarelli motor and rewiring it.

Bought it, brought it home with the intention of fixing it up and then some things happened and then I moved to that apartment and never got around to it. So it's sat like that for about 6 years. |

Ya I just looked, and he wants $200 for the mount and it'll cost me $350 for a stock af16 plus parts.
I just picked up a running tng scooter w a 2t Mina shortcase running for free. Guy wanted $100, but I run a tough bargain haha. Free is way better than $350 plus parts.

So, anybody with a metro wanna do me a favor? I'd like to ship my ecu to some other member with a metro or ruckus and have them plug in my ecu to check it and see if she works. It's the only way I know to test it. If it's bad just dump it in the garbage and I'll buy a new one off eBay.

I might be able to help you with the ECU/ECM test, and if yours fails, I might have another hanging around. I also may have a fuel pump. (I’ve got a bunch of Met and Ruck parts these days). PM me so I’ll remember to check tomorrow. |

Tried the ecu-reset trick (thanks jdjhillbilly) no dice. Lights come on like they should but nothin happens after the reset s complete.
