Modern Vespa

My wife's 200 has been sitting in the garage for a year, and I decided to get it out the other day. Problem is it that it cranks, but won't run. The battery's good, and the tank's full. I pulled the plug for a look and it seems fine too. I suspect a fuel problem since I can see the fuel filter and it doesn't appear to be full. I pulled the fuel line from the carb and while there is some fuel, it doesn't gush out like I expected. Anybody have any suggestions?

Probably gummed up if you didn't put some type of fuel stabilizer in the fuel before you stored it. From other reports on the forum, there is also a fuel pump on the GT200 and it may also be clogged with gummy fuel.

I'm still thinking your battery isn't good. I would get a new one and see if that helps. You can always take it back. If you didn't tender it i'm betting it has enough juice to make it "look good". Also throw a double shot of SeaFoam in the fresh tank of gas and that should help with getting the "gunk" out. Might need to do it more than once. You can get some at any auto,marine or WalMart store. I would really try the new battery before you start pulling things apart. Good luck
