So here’s the Gilera Runner.
\nWe basically don’t take on scooters \u2605
\nI’ve never swapped a carburettor before
 
\n
 
Apparently it goes on easy, so we’ll tear down the stock one.
\nWell, the carburettor bore diameter is different anyway, so it won’t just fit as-is…
 
\n
 
The stock L-shaped fitting works with the PWK. Hmm, I see…
 
\n
 
Install the vacuum takeoff nipple… (we’ll swap the intake manifold too \u2605 this time it’s just a temporary fit)
\nThe PWK doesn’t have a 2-stroke oil hole either, so we drill one, cut threads, make a nipple and install it…
\nWe figured it out somehow after some head-scratching. Come back once you’ve got all the parts together, yeah?
