Had the same problem, had to cut the cable and use WD40 and tweezers to free it BUT i'm sure there's a better way.

The Tank is attached to the frame via one bolt under the tank nearest the seat and after you remove the fuel lines the tank lifts up and off, lift seat end up first.

Hope that helped.

I have just bought a 1988 vespa px 125 under the seat there is 2 holes one for the petrol and one that says oil ive put 2 stroke oil in the oil tank and petrol in the petrol tank today i hit 50 and the...

older Vespas without separate Oil-tanks need a premix of 1:50 oil in the gasoline - but yours is an automatic oil-mixer type.
check the oil-level-glass under the seat near the choke.
it must be full of oil - the oil tank can hold about 1 liter of 2-stroke oil. How much oil did you fill in?
Probably the previous owner removed the oil supply tube and filled always an oil-gasoline premix. You better ask him about it. If the tube was removed then there was no oil supplied to your engine and it got stuck and the engine bearings are blown.

Motorbike will not start

before you stored it for the 3 months did you drain the carbs and petrol tank... if you havent then your probably right to think that fuel isnt flowing to the engine.. overtime petrol additives eveporate leaving a gunky residue in the float bowls of the carbs and clogging up the jets... so drain all the old fuel, clean the carbs and hopefully that should get you back on the road

THE CHOKE OF MY SUZUKI 2004 Z250 HAS TO BE ON IN ORDER TO USE IT. WHAT WRONG?

If choke is needed it must be starving for petrol check there are no kinks in fuel line an also check and replace petrol filter check if you have a tap on tank (properly not) there may be a filter behind tap clean it.

How to change throttle cable on 2005 rm 125

The carburator end...you will need to remove the seat and gas tank.The top of the carb will turn off counter clockwise, then you can pull the "slide" up out of the carburator. Note which is the front for re-assemble. There is a spring between the slide and cap, and look into the slide to see if your cable clips in, or may have a phillips screw and plate to remove to get the cable free. I use needle nose pliers to hold the spring back to remove and replace the cable.
The throttle end is easier. Remove the plastic cap and unthread the adjusting worm nut. The cable end "ball" will come out with the help of needle nose pliers also. Pull the cable slack up to rotate the "ball" out of the throttle tube.
Hope this helps!
