check the spark plug it could be oiled up or sooty thus giving a weak spark

Make sure you use Motorbike oil mate as car oil is not the same... motorbikes have a wet clutch system that is imersed in oil...

I use Castrol 10/40w .... around £10 per litre !

Halfords | Castrol Power 1 Racing 4T 10W/40 Motorcycle Engine Oil - 1ltr

Yeah, car oil has additional slip properties which are no good to the wet clutches, if you do use car oil eventually you will get clutch slip.

Give HT lead/s a spray with WD40 and it won't harm to give electrics a spray whilst you're doing it. Can't remember what oil I used in my 'blade, know it was Castrol and cost about £28 for 4 litres. Also check fuel line or filter, could be clogged.

i used to put 5/40 fully synthetic in the mrs and it ran better, you are supposed to change the oil every 600 miles in them scooters

if its not starting i will bet its nowt to do with the spark and more to do with fueling as it doesnt have a pump its vacuum fed (unless they have updated them)

might try that one mate (synthetic in the mrs and it ran better) anyway got the oil sorted, thanks for you all help though.

Might try some oil in my mrs and see if that gets her going. Never thought of that she said she felt a little sluggish this morning.:roflmao:
