1991 Aprilia Tuareg 125

I have been working on my Tuareg (Rotax 122) over the past few months (most of that time trying to find parts) after reassembling I cannot get her to run for more than a 20 seconds and only really with choke. Before I took the bike apart it ran like a dream so I’m trying to figure out what I have upset! I have taken the carb off and cleaned it put in a new air filter, fresh fuel and two smoke oil, cleaned the powervalve, decoked the exhaust and a couple other bits. I’ve tried taking the carb off again and I can’t see a blocked jet, I took the air filter out as I thought the new filter is chocking it but now I’m thinking it must be fuel. I’m thinking maybe the carb has an issue with the float or a fuel line has given up. It has a delloroto phbh28rd if that’s of any help. If anyone can suggest something as Ive hit a brick wall in thinking that would be amazing!

F1 auto centre ragging car?

Bit of a whine really but I took my car to my local f1 auto centre as I got a good deal on tyres through Asda tyres.
I hear someone revving my car followed by the tyres squealing out back before they come shooting past the waiting room and parked up. I’m annoyed I’ve not set my dashcam up in my new car now.

Xros corex 2.0 pods fake?

I was on holiday in the Netherlands and had to get myself some Xros pods as I ran out. It’s been a while since I had corex 2.0 so I might be going crazy but I just wanted to double check, the qr code seemed legit.

Best way of repairing broken wires?

I must now face my least favourite part of working on my car, wiring. What would the best way of repairing broken wires in my door loom be? It’s a 2000 Mercedes cl with a funky hinge that is known for flexing and breaking wires. From what I’ve read barrel crimps are long lasting but I wanted to see if there are any better solutions. Thanks for any advice.
