    Hi got my self a gilera runner 50 lc project
    Am having issues with getting vac for the petrol the tap works because when I suck on the pipe it pushes petrol threw

    So under investigation I realised I wasn't getting suction from the inlet so removed the inlet and reeds messed about with them put them back in notice the inlet had cracks in but didn't look to be Al the way threw turned the bike over a few times and it worked was feeding petrol to the carb
    But now for some reason after messing with the carb and petrol pipe it won't work again
    Am thinking it's not seals as it worked for 5 mins
    Any help or advice plz

    Compression? Crank seals? The inlet gasket? Split vacuum hose?

    Yeah, try that then look at compression if it still doesn't start
