Title: Cold start stalling Post by: skodapop on August 30, 2015, 09:27:22 I'm currently running a Peugeot Geopolis 250, which I understand has a Piaggi0 250 engine.
When I start it from cold it runs fine with the yellow warning light still on, then when the light goes out the engine stalls. It restarts again straight away, with a touch of throttle, but will not tick over. I have also noted that the tick over seems lower, when its hot, than it used to do.It also has a tendancy to backfire slightly on overrun. A new development occurred yesterday, whilst I was running the bike on its stand, with a small throttle opening, the yellow light came on and the engine started to run rough. The light went out and the bike ran fine again. Anyone had anything similar? Title: Re: Cold start stalling Post by: Dave Milnes on August 30, 2015, 15:21:34 250 fuel injected?...dud fuel pump. It's been an issue on 250 Xevos and X8's and a warranty issue on a Piaggio but who knows on a Pug, but worth investigating.

I was wondering about the fuel pump, but it runs perfect off tickover, no misfire and it seems mostly OK when hot. Just a bit puzzled by it and because its a Pug I can't get much feedback from anywhere that speaks English. |
