Piaggio Beverly 350 BV 2015 not starting By beverly350 (Read 656 times)

Hello,
I am helping getting a Piaggio BV350 back to working. It was in storage for 6 months.
Changed Battery * totally dead *
Dumped fuel -- used a small pump and got most of it out -- the fuel was Ethanol 10% (California) almost 2 years old!!
Cleaned spark plug

Scooter cranks fine.
Spark plug sparks great (checked)
Spark plug gets wet..

No combustion at all!

I am wondering if there is still old fuel that needs to go out. Other than taking out the gas tank -- major work -- any other suggestions on how to try to get all the old fuel out?? Just cranking ??

Thank you
Giuseppe

I'm not proud and I believe that there are better people to answer this.

Piaggio scooters are them.

Have you checked compression? If you are getting fuel and spark the only thing missing is compression.
