Hi i have a gilera stalker 50cc , i have two questions for you . 1. inside the foam filter inside the air filter(i think) it sais to use a 50-50 solution of petrol and oil, wondering what oil i would need to use. 2. the bile will not start, i had it previously started and it was running fine, but now it will not start, have bought a haynes manual and cleaned out the carbarator but is is leaking fuel from the float tank at the bottom, looks like some kind of nipple but is is hollow and i did not remove anything from this when i cleaned it. any help will be very much appreciated.

Stalker was also known as the SKP, made by Piaggio and basically the same as their other models, NRG, Typhoon etc. think those bars just held to fork stem by a single clamp. simple enough to remove upper and lower handlebar covers but you might find it a bit fiddy taking of the throttle grip as cable will still be attached, and left grip will be glued or pushed on tight, sometimes have to cut them off and fit a new one, stick it warm water to re fit, bit of soap maye, don't grease it up or it'll spin round forever. try a dutch website call easyparts nl or do google seach fot that, they have parts lists with pictures for most scooters and all the Piaggios, at least you can see what goes where.

Don't do the gas down the spark plug thing. It's a bad idea. Do the following >
Remove the water trap bowl at the bottom of the petcock, (gas valve). Is there any water or trash in the bowl? Drain a cup of gas from the tank. Is there any water or trash in the cup? Dump it, clean it and re-mount it, ( not all bikes have a water trap bowl ).

Drain the carburetor. There should be a screw on the lower side or bottom of the carb float bowl. Remove the screw then replace it after the fuel drains. Turn the gas back on and wait a minute for the carb to fill with gas. Install a new stock NGK spark plug and try to start the engine. If the bike doesn't start and run properly then shut off the gas and remove the carburetor from the engine.

Remove the float bowl and clean the entire carb with a spray carb cleaner from the auto parts store. Wear protective goggles to avoid getting spray in your eyes. Spray into all the little airways and fittings in the carb. Remove the idle screw and the air screw on the outside throat of the carb and spray into the screw holes as well.
< < READ CLOSELY > >
Be sure to put these two screws back in the same hole they came out of. IMPORTANT > do not tighten these two adjusters down. Only screw these in until they LIGHTLY seat. Now turn each adjuster one and one half turns outward. Put the rest of the carb back together, clean the air filter and install the carb. Let the float bowl fill then start the engine. This process should get you back on the road.

Please rate this solution. Thanks!
