I have a benelli 150xt, the one in my signature, and I'm having extreme difficulty finding parts for this scooter.

I need a new carburetor, a new air filter and intake manifold.

It's a dual vacuum intake manifold, I bought one but it's way too short and it doesn't line up with the bolts to bolt it on (too small) it was advertised for 150cc scooter so I'm confused.

I have no idea what kinda carb to buy.

I cannot find a replacement air filter, what should I do about this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, i want to order the new carb ASAP so quick replies would getamazing on the carb issue.

Easy, if you bought a mianifold and it's too short you probably have a bn157qmj engine, they sell the right "raised" manifold at scrappydog scooters, any gy6 24 or 26mm carb will work fine. Upjet your carb 1 size and run a performance foam air filter, it will squeeze a bit but it will fit in your engine mount. 42mm foam filter, all this stuff is available at scrappy, check out this link and see if this is the right manifold, about 6 parts down. http://www.scrappydogscooters.com/GY6-B_16__wheel_BN157QMJ.html

In Melbourne Florida , they have two places-Bike Strippers & Harley Strippers. They work in conjunction with E-Bay. You might give them a call. It might not work but it's worth a try!:s:shrug: Irish:scoot::nuts:

Hey thanks for the reply.
I'm not sure what engine it is, but that manifold isn't the one. The one I need looks exactly like one for a gy6 but it's just a hairwider where it bolts down and a bit longer where it meets the carb, here's a few photos of the manifold and the engine.

So 24-26mm on the manifolde side but what about on the air intake side? 42mm?

About the filter, can I just cut out the old paper filter and fit foam in there so I can maybe not have to upjet the carb but maybe just adjust the a/f mixture screw on the carb to compensate for the extra air flow?

I'm not experienced with taking apart carbs and jets so I'm trying to do this with as little adjustments as possible.

Thanks Irish I tried a few places that sell or used to sell this scoot but I haven't even gotten any call backs so I'm not so sure. I wish I could just find stock replacements for everything hahaha I'm not very mechanical.

so thank you everyone for the recommendations I got a carb from parts for scooters and the enriched plugs don't match up. The prongs are aligned differently, the stock enriched plug has prongs horizontally and the new carb plug has prongs that are verticle.

Here's a picture.

I tried swapping the enrichers but the stock one didn't fit in the new carb......can I splice this wires to wore the stock plug to the new enriched or did I get the wrong carb??????

Most parts you can find on Ebay.
