It has a small reservoir that the pump goes to, then gravity feeds to the carb. It has spark , and the plug is wet with gas after cranking. I would guess the carb is dirty because it has sat for 6 months, but figured I should sort out the pump problem first.

The vacuum line is hooked up. It isn't pumping gas into small resevor like it should. Maybe a vacuum problem?

Well, got a new fuel pump and its not working either. Is there anything simple that people usually miss with these things?

That looks almost like it, but has the extra gas line out. The description says it can be left blocked so I think it would work. Thanks again for the help!

Thanks for the link, but it doesn't look anything like my fuel pump.

It is about the same level as the carb, and it looks like it pumps gas up to a small resevor that has a cap on it which feeds the carb. Will post a pic in the morning.

That does look like mine. Any idea where to get one for the best price?

So long question short do you think one of the cheap ones that have only one mounting hole will work for this? Then ones I have found that are similar ton what's on it say they fit a 250 liquid cooled engine and are way more expensive. Thanks.

It has a carb. Its not a fuel tank mounted pump. Has two mounting holes unlike the common ones I have found. It does have a vacuum line going to it. Will post a picture of the pump tommorow. Thanks for the help!

Hello all, just wanted to introduce myself. I have used the forum for a while to trouble shoot my old 50cc scoot. Just bought a Roma 150 super hornet today that needs some work. I am very curious to find out how much of it is standard gy6 150 cc parts. Thanks to everyone for the help so far, and look forward to helping others when I have a little knowledge to share.

Hello all, I am a new scooter owner and new to the forum. Like the title says I just bought a Roma 150 sport bike look alike scooter. It is not currently running, so I am sure you all will see lots of me here. My first question is does anyone know if the standard fuel pump for a 150 will work for this bike? The fuel pump on it looks very different than the standard one and all the ones I find that look like it say they work on a 250 water cooled scooter. Thanks for any input on this bike and very curious to hear any input!
