Part: Carburetor

Video tutorial

Remove the lower side protections and then the filter. Unscrew the screws holding the belt disc if it needs replacing.

Otherwise, you can clean it with white spirit, a brush, and a cloth, remembering to dry it thoroughly afterwards. Another useful maintenance task that will improve the health of your Ciao involves removing and cleaning the carburettor.

Opening a carburettor is simple as it involves unscrewing a few small screws. To clean it, use white spirit and a brush again.

Finally, rinse it and DRY it well. Refit the carburettor.

Other maintenance tasks we recommend include cleaning the exhaust and replacing the fibreglass wool.
