You are very good at fixing these little scooters. you should soak that sending unit in some CLR.
Thanks man
Just picked up a 1988 lx. Thanks for this video.
Those are sweet! Nice find Nicky👍🏼
Thats brass piece is called the emulsion tube
That's one smooth one for free99
Sometimes you get lucky😉
Clean the fuel sensor with cleaner and get all the corrosion off. Should work
I’ll give that a try thanks!
Very nice
Here in Florida these are dime a dozen for parts if you check the right places. Even my 125 and 150 can be found here I bought 2 in the same week cheap. Right now there is a 50 on Craigslist for less than 400 complete and rideable.
Wow!
I had a 150 Deluxe new in 86 and rode for 9 years. Best bike I ever had. Finding these is my mid life restoration crisis. The 125 only has 6K miles and the 150 has around 3500. 125 is compete and roadworthy picked up for $300 on Craigslist. Blue was a barn find gift from friend helping clean out the new garage at his shop. Tag last registered in 2006 and carb gone probably as ling from cobwebs all over everything. I stuck a battery in, sprayed starter fluid in the intake and it fired second try. Cant keep a real bike down.
Awesome 👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾
Now THAT is a project! I gotta ask, what's up with the yellow dust all over it, is that pollen?
Edmund Breaks Stuff just dust from sitting so long!
Nice where did you get the scooter from? Also where do you buy your other scooters/mopeds from such as Honda Sprees ect?
I find all my stuff on Craigslist and Facebook marketplace!
Me: 2 days to paint a cvt cover
Mechanic kid: 2 seconds..
that made me laugh🤣
Hey, I'm new to 2 strokes, don't tell my ruckus group lol.... but I have a 87 elite s 50. It only starts when I block the carb with my hand "self choke method " I put a new bystarter cleaned carb, petcock seems good, still same issue... anything I'm missing?
Armor all on the tires? Be careful..lol

Sender unit may work when grounded to tank
Did you do a full service on it? I just picked one up but not sure how to change the oil on it.
I show how to change the gearbox oil in this video: czcams.com/video/m17rywXrHNA/video.html GO TO TIME: 33:26.
This is on a Honda spree but it’s basically the same location and oil for the elite. Also, I highly suggest switching to premix (40:1) and plugging off the oil injector line. Then you don’t run the risk of it failing and then your bike overheating. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions. But go checkout the spree video because the bikes are basically the same.
@@Mechanic_kid Awesome thank you!! I plugged off the oil injector. I don't trust them either lol great videos! Looking forward to more.
SOMEONE PLZ HELP! so I'm not getting fuel. 87 Elite 50 S. If I suck on vac hose fuel comes out of fuel line but when vac hose is connected to carb no fuel from fuel line.. good petcock from running parts bike, cleaned carb and in tank filter. Any suggestions would be appreciated..
Did you have to clean the gas tank?
Hi I have a same scooter and is working good before but now work for 5 minutes and never give me maximum power and is off
I was think is carburetor problem but now with you video I'm not sure
What u think is the problem??
Thanks for u help
Probably needs a carb clean. They get clogged up very easily and won’t run right. Hope you figure it out👍🏼
@@Mechanic_kid thanks
are you from the northwest? can't help but notice the trees and roads... seem familiar to Portland or Seattle area's
Yes, i’m from the PNW
@@Mechanic_kid same, grew up in Oregon city 👍. Love the videos.
@@amatureskater15 Very cool! Thanks for the support🙏🏼
Hey man I have this exact make and model could you give me some pointers on installing a new carb on it?
Do you still have the stock carb? Clean it out and put it back on. They run best with the stock carb and air box👍🏼
I have a video coming out in the next week on my 1984 Honda Aero50. Basically the same engine as the elite. I show how I install the carb in that video. Very simple. Keep a lookout for it👍🏼
@@Mechanic_kid thanks man your a good guy
Yes a rebuilt, and I mean really rebuilt not spray washed and gaskets, carburetor will always be better than a cheap made aftermarket chinese throwaway carb. They are made cheap just for that purpose and your classic bike will reject it quickly.
that thing on carb is the electronic choke!
Yep! Stupid things never work🙄 I just block them off
Honda called them Auto ByStarter ... My 125 and 150 have them unfortunately.
Where did you get if for free at? Also nice job fixing it, looks good. 👍
craigslist
Considering selling the complete motor I’m interested
No I actually fixed it up on another episode and it’s my favorite scooter I own now!
@@Mechanic_kid would you sell your motor off the aero 50
@@Burronster no haha. If I come across a good engine tho I’ll let you know👍🏼
@@Mechanic_kid I’m looking for af16 or af18 if you ever come across one I’ll buy from you thanks
@@Burronster been looking too those are very hard to find!
Whats the name of the broken part?
Which broken part?
@@Mechanic_kid the piece that attaches to the carb. The 5 second shut off part.
@@richielebron5898 the Bystarter? It’s basically a automatic choke
I want to buy this from you i csn pick up today how much?
I can even give you cash and another project bike or something yamaha qt 50
Wasn’t really thinking of selling it at the moment but What’s your offer?
Im not sure does it have a title ? I also have lotz and lots of honda trail 70 parts and z50 parts so mayne if you need any for your builds could trade some stuff or cash just let me know a price
I also have more honda spree frames and extra parts then you could imagine if you need anything for a spree i guarantee i have it
$250???cash Or 200 and like 200 worth of honda parts ??
Pressure washer that thing first.
Tyre shine on a bike is a bad idea.
Without stock airbox it will always give you problems
I have not had a problem with that
@@Mechanic_kid lucky... keep the old scoots alive man.. nice videos
@@volvo850r3 Appreciate it man! Tryin my best👍🏼
I’m currently into an 1985 Yamaha Riva 180 deluxe.. what a nightmare..👎🏽
@@volvo850r3 no way! I have one also. The wiring harness is all burned up on mine! I don’t know if I want to pull everything off and replace the harness. I don’t even know if it runs haha. It’s a big scoot!
Prolly not enough motor for an adult, say, 195 lbs?
dominican style 2022
2 year later he admits he paid about $100 for this scooter.
