Piaggio NRG probs

[Chezzy]

Hi
Bit of a newbie, both to the forum and mechanics of the scooter. Have a problem with my W reg Piaggio NRG. The bike is stalling after about half a mile or so. It starts up OK again after a while but promptly does the same after another half mile. It is idling perfectly well. I've tried the local garage who think ££Pounds sign whenever I walk in there! Anyone got a few clues to make sure the doesn't rip me off.

I put new spark plug in yesterday, still stalling, could it be the mixture, think my lad messed with the adjuster button. Any ideas how to adjust it to give correct mixture.

you cant adjust the mixture other than the idle mixture without changing jet sizes. I severely doubt that the mixture will have changed. Is the bike air or water cooled? if it is water cooled what does the temp gauge say?

change your air filter.

the plug you took out, was it oily or sooty (ie totall black)

after that replace any fuel filter

then check your fuel tap.

The plug was quite choked with black.
The bike is Air cooled.
Will do as suggest with all filters etc, when I work out where they all are. Will come back and let you guys know how it goes.
