When the technology is in place, it is time to tackle the visual down to the smallest detail. Details that let us recognize the Vespa, which is built entirely from new parts and will be one of the few who will not come from one of the factories.
All words are superfluous when we can look at the result of hours in the workshop in a good mood, because the assembly was almost as fun as it will be to drive it.

Title: Cutting It Close
Empty the tank cleanly and quickly
If you change the tank, wait or want to install a new fuel tap, you should before you use the Fuel tap wrench starts, empty the tank beforehand.
There are various ways to do this, most of them take forever, end up in a mess or with a nasty taste in your mouth.

It's really easy with the Petrol hand pump from Hünersdorff. With this small, cheap helper you can

Petrol from the tank into eg one canister pump over and the fuel like that use again later.

How does the fuel tap wrench work?
And what do I need this tool for anyway? In almost all classic Vespa models, the fuel tap is inserted into the tank from the outside / below and into the tank from above Screwed inside the tank with a nut. To remove the Vespa fuel tap, you need a fuel tap wrench.
Fuel tap wrench for fuel tap nut in the tank
This Fuel tap wrench for Vespa has been a moderately working tool so far. Packing and turning the flat nut in the dark interior of the tank was usually quite a fiddly job.
Our remedy is now new fuel tap wrench from bgm in a cranked version. The bgm PRO Multi Tooth tool uses a modern multi-tooth instead of a simple open-end wrench. This makes it quicker and easier to grab and turn the nut of the fuel tap.
Vespa fuel tap wrench from bgm
Suitable for all Vespa scooters with a fuel tap nut, wrench size of 32mm, and a tank opening larger than Ø35mm. This also applies to all vehicles
- removable tank coverl to (Vespa PK XL, PX Lusso, T5 etc.) as well as the vehicles with
- large hinged lid (All Wideframe, Sprint, GT, GTR, TS, VNB, VBB, etc.).
So this tank key does not fit with tanks with a small hinged lid (Smallframe V50, 50N, V90, 90 Racer, PV125, ET3, Motovespa).
HINTS:
- The Vespa models VNA, VBA (up to frame number 81256), VNB1-2T and the VGLA (T4 / Touren up to frame number 017409) use a smaller fuel tap with a fastening nut with a wrench size of 22mm. This BGM PRO fuel tap wrench does not fit here.
- The Vespa models Rally180 / 200 and GS160 / SS180 use a tank with strongly offset filling opening. Here please Fuel tap wrench BGM 3036 use.
