How to take care Vespa

Vespa is identical with the spark plug. This is due to two-wheeler Vespa is the most frequent change spark plugs. But if the Vespa we can not mutually exchange plug contrived? The answer could be. Spark plugs are long-lived (morbidly mutually) is not difficult. prerequisite is the painstaking care of the vehicle user. In the language of a mechanic shop "plug NO DEAD". Is it true those words? Below is a small research experience has shown, that the spark plugs Vespa motor necessary substitute for the ill, have a long life. Spark plug consists of two points of positive current (+) and negative current (-). Two points if associated with the setting of platinum / CDI will / sparks. This fire will burn gasoline that has been atomized by the carburetor. between the two points (middle) will be covered by an insulator. Like spark plugs in said OFF and must be replaced if the insulator layer is covered by a crust / soot in the combustion chamber engine block. Why is there a crust? the answer is on the quality of fuel and lubrication oil contained in the Vespa. remember Vespa 2-stroke vehicles, which burn gasoline contain so much oil.

Fuel (gasoline) with quality (octane) Low will leave a lot of soot in combustion components. If possible, vehicles should use high octane gasoline Pertamax like Pertamina or Shell super output. Likewise, the oil side, a lot of leaving the crust / soot if the side with a quality oil (additives) is low. And given the market many many brands of oil supply side, to the owners of vehicles scooters have an understanding of how to choose a good oil. Do not forget a lot of oil is also an outstanding addition to false.To overcome accumulation soot / crust on the spark plug (insulator) that you want can be done to clean it regularly. Open up the spark plugs of the cylinder cop. Clean using a brush with kerosene / diesel / gasoline. or it could be cleaned with a brush using an iron.Brush and brush are only able to clean the insulators are visible, how to part of the invisible?. Use 3-5 strands of steel wire rope clutch that had not been used. Fill the hole insulator with gasoline, lighters and hold the spark plug insulator that has no crust, having seen dirty, pour, and then filled again and the match several times. Do not forget the insulator holes in the condition they will be submerged by a kerosene / gasoline / diesel, so that the crust of the racing engines wire can be removed.Once clean replace the spark plugs right in the holder within cylinder cop. Remember when the spark plugs MUST be cleaned after the cold conditions. Never wash in hot conditions when the spark plugs (new cylinder cop who was removed from heat), because that is the cause of the short life of spark plugs.Remember how the above manuals must be with patience.There is also a manual method is more rapid in cleaning soot / crust in hole spark plug insulator. A quick way is of course the risk is large enough, by using battery water (water zuur) as well as mercury. The trick to do a few steps as follows:1. Pour a few drops of water into the hole battery spark plug insulator, allow a few seconds, then pour2. After being drained quite discard crust, do the washing by using a brush (Brush) soap soap and water.The model in this way only a few seconds immediately clean up the crust. But then again not too long, because if long, the layer of iron / metal that has no insulator layer zuur be eroded by water. if a layer of an advanced eroded the spark plugs will be too thin.Risks due to wear zuur water / mercury are also present, ie if the fumes inhaled our noses would be dangerous. Hm ... .. the risk is quite heavy. Heavy metals will enter our respiratory cavity. How to overcome that is not inhaled by wearing masks.Just you know, if there are people who sell spark plugs with no clothes, still clean, but low prices, please be careful, usually the result of the practice of this model. The result was amazing. After the crust removed, then scrubbed with a brush and soap, it is guaranteed dirt and grease oil will be wasted, plug so shiny like out of the factory.In addition to the manuals above there is another way to clean the crust is by using carburettor cleaner. But if the carburettor cleaner is usually no effect on the spark plugs, because when the liquid in the spray carburettor cleaner, spark plug temperature becomes too cold.If the spark plugs cleaned regularly (3, 4, or 5 days), and do not wait until the Vespa strike, guaranteed to spark ill will never die.The things that cause the plugs to die1. The electricity generated is too small spool2. Coil is too weak3. Platinum / CDI weak4. The low quality of Gasoline5. The low quality of the oil sideSo let's clean up continues, if there is an interruption of the five things above, usually accelerate the destruction of the spark plug. Because it still controls the fifth condition, or if you check regularly confused by the garage / mechanic.NEVER DISPOSING plug

If we were forced to change spark plugs should never be discarded, because the spark plugs are used and stored longer .... then used again, it is usually pretty good ignition.Having not worn spark plugs with kerosene wash and store. day after tomorrow or even next year is needed, god willing, can be usedplug TO MAINTAIN durableThe easiest road to maintain the spark plug is to maintain or improve the quality of fuel (gasoline) that enter the combustion chamber (engine block). The second step is to maintain quality of the carburetor, because the better the carburetor, the better the quality of combustion.Another step is a step quite eccentric, aka no Standard Operating Plant (SOP) of the plant it is to boil the spark plug. The last step is quite telling. yes at least not by the secretary tight dollars, like the child learner.Step SOP without this factory are as follows:1. collect some old spark plugs, new spark plugs or can be purchased. 2. prepare a pot of boiling water in pot on stove as much as half. 3. after starting the heat (turbulent), the input plugs into the pot, allow some time until the water runs out before. Remember do not add cold water, because the temperature will change the spark plugs.So how to boil it looks like people want to boil diamond. Do not let water run out, and do not always remove the spark plug if water boiling in the pot is still a lot. if standardized time is to boil for 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes and so on.The longer the boil, the longer it will spark heated, then the resulting quality of the spark plug, the better.Would be great if bought new spark plugs are also treated equally. Experience of my family in Tegal. new spark plugs used vespa through the process of boiling, 5 years  never replace the spark plugs.Once again, remember the adage NEVER DISPOSING plug

Caring batterybattery for the era now a vital thing for motor vehicles, including the Vespa.  need care because every time the machine is turned on, the batteries will have left an electric current.When an electric current into the battery, then the elements in the batteries will react. Reaction of the batteries has resulted in (1) temperature and then heated to evaporate the water battery, (2) heads in particular batteries positive (+) will be no clumping and usually causes rust.Because it continues to control and water content of batteries, at least once a month. Likewise battery head should be cleaned frequently with a brush that has been soaked in hot water use.If the batteries regularly treated durable and continue to be used. And do not forget, if we are old scooter ... .... not used better battery released. Castings / remove the batteries and store water in dry conditions and reversed. It means that there are holes under the battery. When about to be used, water recharge and water battery acid, such as new batteries.The above treatment only for liquid batteries, while for dry batteries do not apply. How to care for dry batteries?Dry batteries do not need water treatments battery checks, but because he was no water in it maintenance free. Just need to remember, dry batteries have enemies, namely the head of water splashed by battery (its main + nutmeg). If nutmeg + water doused the electricity produced is usually not optimal. The second enemy is the occurrence of batteries short circuit between the axis axis + -. because it's usually if we use dry batteries, all batteries closed head plastic coating.
