Converting my PX125 Lusso to premix. I got this to block the hole from the drive shaft on the clutchside.

https://www.scooter-center.com/en/plug-with-o-rings-for-oilpump-hole-oem-quality-vespa-vespa-px80-px125-px150-px200-t5-125cc-cosa125-200-alloy-3331048?number=3331048

That's all fine, but those instructions is not the best. I get that I put the plug with the o rings in the hole, but what the hell am I doing with that tiny rod and the screw? Anybody here have any experience with this item?

I think the small blank is for the carb by the mix screw

I've seen a youtube video out there before or posted here at some point.

Thanks! That might explain the small blank, but I'm still puzzled about the self tapping screw.

Does the expanded detail say " screw the supplied screw into the existing bore hole"?

I know But the plug already goes in that hole. Confusing "instructions".

BTW, is anyone aware of other options for blocking that hole? Do you really need to block that hole if you have a non injected carb box without the matching hole.
