    hi there
    piaggio nrg 2001 my first moped
    i have a leo TT and roller , clutch springs
    the spark plug is very black and oily ( iv put a new 1 in and i have tryed tuning the mian jet about 1.5 turns out )but no gr8 diffrents
    i have like not bottom end maybe take off at 5000 revs maybe more is this normal ?
    so i think the jets need changing ? if so what jet do i need to do pilot or main and whats sizes do you think is a good start
    thanks a lot hope you can help

    yer fule mix (sorry and im trying 2 turns out now ) but still looks rich
    and take a small time for it to pick up speed ! (maybe clutch)
    do yo thinka bigger jet is needed ?

    you say youve fitted a TT pipe...

    have you tried stiffer clutch springs to improve your take off ??? youll need lighter rollers too, or you wont have very good bottom end performance ;)

    hammer the next socket size down on to the nut, and gently undo it with a ratchet ;)

    cold try dressing the sides you can reach with a file, to help the socket on.
