Modern Vespa

Hey guys, so my et2 starts after a few kicks and holding the throttle all the way, but then dies and pukes fuel out the very top of the carborator,(the black part where im pointing) is this a tuning issue or is the carborator bad or what?

There's a gasket that goes under the black cap. Yours is probably torn/non existent causing air/fuel issues. Order a carb rebuild kit and refresh yours.

Two stroke scooters are definitely finicky when everything is not air tight.

This is a brand new carborator and I remember having the gasket in there, is it possible for it to break so quickly? I only rode it once before it had this problem

The plastic broke?

Is this a genuine Piaggio carburetor or an eBay generic?

What's the status of the rubber manifold the carb plugs into? Cracks?

It's a ebay one, and there are little cracks on the manifold, this is my first motorcycle of any kind so I didn't really know what to buy. When I bought it the carborator was clogged but when I tried to clean it I broke it so I bought this one and after messing with the tuning I got it to work but then it broke again, this fuel issue is new though

I too have been tempted by the cheap chinese carbs, but never ever have I been satisfied by them. Don't waste any money on key components for your Vespa with chinese parts.

So you think I need a second new carborator? But name brand this time?

Use reputable parts from a reputable dealer. ScooterPartsCo is a good choice.

next time when ordering cheap knock off carbs off eBay or temu or ali express makes sure you buy them by the box full, (half dozen)

or you can buy 1 decent one and not worry about it

Ok ok i get it lol, lesson learned. Ordered the carborator and electric choke from treatland, and the manifold from scooterpartsco. 180 dollars worth so hopefully this fixes it🙏🙏
