When to replace the piston

The piston is replaced during a top-end rebuild, when you notice loss of compression, oil consumption, excessive smoke or scoring and wear on the walls. Along with the piston it is worth checking the cylinder, rings, gaskets and the pin's needle bearing.

Before you buy

Check that your scooter has the Piaggio 50 cc two-stroke engine and compare the piston and pin diameter with those of the part being replaced: the size depends on cylinder wear and any oversize already fitted.
