Hi, I am new to the forum and Lambretta ownership so if this is a dull question then I apologise.
I am confused by the choke lever on my series II. The lever rotates correctly and operates the choke plunger correctly, the issue is that it will not stay on, the only way to start the bike is to put a clothes peg on the lever to keep it open.
I have the lever in parts and the pins etc seem to all be on place, but I cannot see how its supposed to stay on the on position. The only think I can think of is that spring pressure is supposed to generate enough friction on the body to stop it rotating back to the closed position.
Any help is appreciated
Steve
