Video tutorial

You can dismantle the engine of the Piaggio Zip by loosening the screws that secure it to its housing in the centre of the frame: once the mounting screws are loosened, proceed to remove the intake and exhaust manifolds, disconnecting the appropriate connectors as well.

At this point, you can remove the screws that secure the cylinder and the cylinder head to access the piston underneath: the latter must be freed from its connecting rod to access the crankshaft and all internal components.

After replacing the necessary parts, you can reassemble the engine and check its operation.
