Damn seagull never showed up jloi. Don't think pipe was silicone lines. Today though I managed to get some 3/16" / 4mm vacuum pipe specific from local shop so that's sorted hopefully once I have double checked in the morning it starts ok. Then go and get there last packet for future use.

Today I put the original carb back now I have worked out the cold starting technique of the other carb kin cold freezing weather. Twist like mad while using starter and it fires straight up. Never had a bike or scooter had to do that on before. Never to old to learn new tricks 😊. Glad i didn't have to go down the electrical nightmare route😱. Old carb working fine now know the procedure. So aeroxbud it has had its upgrade and the other carb can go back on the China scooter. Funny how Chinese one has 85 main and the Vespa one has a 72 or 75 main and they both run the same when out on a 8 mile trip today

It's mad how different jetting can on different bikes. My typhoon was a 53 standard, and aerox 66 main jet. Perhaps the Vespa needs a next size up pilot jet? I know my typhoon hates the cold. Anything below 5 degrees left out it always takes a bit to start.

Well would you know it. Off with the old original carb and back on with the Chinese one. Starts again now.
