Caring for Busi
Vespa synonymous with Busi. This is due to the Vespa is a two-wheeled vehicles are most often replace the spark plugs. But whether the Vespa we can not substitute for the Busi contrived? The answer can be.
Spark plugs are long-lived (morbidly mutually) is not difficult. prerequisite is the painstaking care of the vehicle user. In the language of a mechanic workshop "NO BUSI OFF". Is it true those words? Below is the experience of small studies have shown that morbidly Vespa motor plugs need to be mutually exchange, aka long-lived.
Spark plug consists of two points of positive current (+) and negative currents (-). Two points if associated with the setting of platinum / CDI will produce / memercikan fire. This fire will burn gasoline that has been atomized by the carburetor. between the two points (middle) will be covered by an insulator.
Busi like saying OFF and must be replaced if the insulator layer is covered by a crust / soot combustion in the engine block. Why there is the crust? the answer is on the quality of fuel and lubrication oil contained in the Vespa. remember Vespa 2-stroke vehicles, so that burn gasoline contains a lot of oil.
Fuel (gasoline) with quality (octane) will leave many low-soot in the combustion components. If possible, vehicles should use high octane petrol such as Shell Pertamax Pertamina or super output. Likewise, the oil side, will be a lot leaving the crust / soot if the side with a quality oil (additives) is low. And given the market many many brands of oil supply side, to the owners of vehicles scooters have the understanding how to choose a good oil. Do not forget a lot of oil is also an outstanding addition to false.
To overcome bertumbuknya soot / crust on the spark plug (insulator) that you want can be done by cleaning it regularly. Open up the spark plugs of the cilinder cop. Clean using a brush with the kerosene / diesel / petrol. or it could be cleaned by using an iron brush.
Brush and brush is only able to clean insulators that look, how to part of the invisible?. Use 3-5 strands of steel wire rope clutch that had not been used. Fill the hole insulator with gasoline, matches and hold the spark plug insulator that has no crust, having seen dirty, pour, and then filled again and the match several times. Do not forget the hole in the insulator they will be submerged by the condition of kerosene / petrol / diesel, so that the crust of the korekan wire can be removed.
After a clean reinstall the spark plug well on the stand within cilinder cop. Remember when the spark plugs cleaned MUST be in the condition after it has cooled. Never wash in hot conditions when the spark plugs (new cilinder cop who was removed from heat), because that is the cause of the short spark plug life.
Remember the above must manually with patience.
There is also a manual method is faster in cleaning soot / crust on the spark plug insulator hole. A quick way is of course the risk is large enough, ie, by using Accu water (water zuur) and also mercury. The way to do a few steps as follows:

    Pour a few drops of water into the hole accu zuur spark plug insulators, allow a few seconds, then pour
    After diras quite discard the crust, do the washing using a brush (Brush) Rinso soap and water.
The model in this way only a few seconds immediately clean up the crust. But then again not too long, because if the old, metal layer / metal that does not have an insulator layer will be eroded by water zuur. if the coating will erode the spark plugs an advanced too thin.
The risk of using water zuur / mercury are also present, ie if the fumes inhaled our noses would be dangerous. Hm ... .. the risk is quite heavy. Heavy metals will enter our respiratory cavity. How to overcome that is not inhaled by wearing masks.
Just you know, if there are people who sell spark plugs with no shirt, still clean, but low prices, please be careful, usually the result of the practice of this model. The result is stunning. After the crust removed, then scrubbed with a brush and Rinso, it is guaranteed dirt and grease oil will be wasted, Busi-was so shiny like out of the factory.
In addition to the manual above there is another way to clean up the crust that is by using carburator cleaner. But if the carb cleaner is usually no effect on the spark plugs, because when the liquid in the spray carb cleaner, spark plug temperature becomes too cold.
If the spark plugs be cleaned regularly (3, 4, or 5 days), and do not wait until Vespa strike, guaranteed to spark ill will never die.
Things that cause the plugs to die

    The electricity generated is too small spool
    Coil is too weak
    Platinum / CDI weak
    Low quality gasoline
    The low quality side Oli
So let's clean up continues, if there is an interruption of the five things above, usually accelerate the destruction of the spark plug. Because it still controls his fifth state, or regularly check if confused by the garage / mechanic.
NEVER DISPOSING OF BUSI
If we were forced to change spark plugs should never be discarded, because the plugs are used and stored lamaaaaaa .... then used again, usually pretty good ignition.
Having not worn spark plugs wash with kerosene and save it. day after tomorrow or even next year are needed, god willing, can be used
TAKING CARE TO BE durable BUSI
The easiest road to maintain the spark plug is to maintain or improve the quality of fuel (gasoline) that enter the combustion chamber (engine block). The second step is to maintain quality of the carburetor, because the better the carburetor, the better the quality of combustion.
Another step is a step quite eccentric, aka no Standard Operating Plant (SOP) them from the factory is to boil the spark plug. The last step is quite telling. yes at least by the sekuteris tight dollars, like the child learner.
SOP step without this plant is as follows:
1. collect some old spark plugs, new spark plugs or it could be bought. 2. prepare a pot of boiling water in saucepan on stove as much as half. 3. after starting the heat (turbulent), the input plugs into the pot, let some time until the water runs out before. Remember do not add cold water, because the temperature will change the spark plugs.
So how to boil it looks like people want to boil the diamond. Do not let the water run out, and do not always remove the spark plug if the water boiling in a pot still a lot. if standardized time is to boil for 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes and so on.
The longer the boil, the longer it will spark heated, then the quality of the resulting spark plugs, the better.
Would be great if bought new spark plugs also treated the same. My family experiences in Tegal. new spark plugs used vespa through the cob, 5 years ga never replace the spark plugs.
Again, remember the adage NEVER DISPOSING OF BUSI
TREATING ACCU
Accu for today a vital body for motor vehicles, including the Vespa. Accu need to care because every time the machine is turned on, the batteries would have left an electrical current.
When an electric current into the battery, then the elements in the battery will react. Reaction of the batteries has resulted in (1) the water temperature heats up and evaporates batteries, (2) heads in particular batteries positive (+) there will be a clumping and usually causes rust.
Therefore the control and the contents kept Accu water, at least once a month. Likewise, the head of the batteries must be frequently cleaned with a brush that has been soaked in hot water use.
If the routine care and durable batteries continue to be used. And do not forget, if we lamaa scooter ... .... not used better accu-ny aja released. Castings / remove the batteries and store water in dry conditions and reversed. It means that there are holes under the battery. When to use, recharge your batteries and water zuur water, such as new batteries.
The above treatment only for liquid batteries, while for dry batteries do not apply. How to care dry batteries?
Dry batteries do not need water treatment inspection batteries, but because he tidakberair the maintenance-free. Only keep in mind, dry batteries have enemies, namely the head of water doused accu (+ uatamanya nutmeg). If nutmeg + doused water generated electricity is usually not optimal. The second enemy of batteries is the occurrence of short circuit between the axis subu + -. So usually if we use dry batteries, all batteries closed head plastic coating
