if no petrol is getting to the spark plug rhis is due to the seel on the barrel first try putting ur hand over the mouth of the carb take the air filter of full frotle and see if pertol get on you hands if so thats fine then try the head and base gasket change them by removing the barrel and head clean and put new gaskets on hey presto should work make shore there is a spark first of all and more ?

about the electric start problem, i had the same problem with my nrg mc3, i took it to someone who could look at it and they sed i got a short circuit , so my starter motor isnt getting the power it needs to start with electric start . so i brought a new battery n it worked perfect but then after a few weeks it would start by electric , this might meen the generator isnt running properly or i duno but i got a solution tht is cheap , buy a battery charger n charge your battery to its max then try electric start it shud start if ur electrics are ok.mine does i only have to charge my battery every 2 weeks now so i think theres a loose connection tht drains it out but for now just going to colledge it does me fine.

Hello I have got a piaggio NRG mc3 on a 05 plate and it will not start at all it has got a descent spark and it's got petrol. Petrol doesn't seem to be getting to the spark plug which I think is stopping it from starting anyone know how I could fix this

i have an mc3 01 plate and i have the same problem its because the clutch shoes are engauging at the rond time because the shoes are to warn it wont start on electric start because it trys starting at higher speed then the kick start and it cuts out because it basicly stalls when you are tryiing to idle

it sounds like a compression problem.
i had a aprilia which doe the same thing because the exzausht was hanging of the manifold.
try tightning the exzaust, the boar, the spark plug, engine casing and anythink else that can make you lose compression

did either of you sort the problem?
My daughters biuke keeps cutting out whilst she is riding it.
It wont start on the electric starter but By the time i get to the bike to help her (maybe 10 mins) it still wont start on the electric but i can get it to start on the kick.
any ideas would be greatly appreciated
