Piaggio

Alright...I have a 2009 Piaggio BV250 (5300 miles) I recieved this from a friend about two weeks ago. It has been setting in a garage for 1 years unstarted, It is fuel injection.
I brought it home started it up and rode 500 feet before it quit. It now starts but runs for 5-10 seconds then quits. When I give it gas within that 5 or 10 seconds it immediatly stalls the engine.
Things I have done
1. Drained the tank as much as I could.
2, Put in 1 gallon of fresh gas.
3. Took the injector out and cleaned the nozzle using carb cleaner and a 12v battery
4. while I had the fuel line off I went ahead and turned the key over 4 times to see if the fuel pump was working and clear out the lines. Gas came out of the line each time. Looked like it had good flow.
5. Took out Sparkplug,,, had a spark.
6. I also took out the fuel pump and inspected the fuel filter and pump. All looked clean...no corrosion on wires.

I know there was a recall on some the Piaggio fuel pumps but mine is not included. I checked with two different dealers. Besides those pump would run fine until they overheated then would run again once cooled.

It acts as if its not getting enough fuel.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated....Thanks much

Brad
