I have been having a go at getting an old V50P going (see projects) - well it was going when I took it apart!!

What have I done:

I have replaced the piston,

changed the original fuel tap for a on off type - this has a slightly smaller outlet than the original.

replaced the points and set the timing.

put on new exhaust.

The problem is that it works fine in first gear but has no power at all above 10mph or up hills - basically wont go in 2nd or third.

The clutch is OK.

Any ideas as to the problem.

Ta KAYOS.

Ah no the piston is in OK - the condensor - that should be by the points, I have not touched that - I will have a look.
