Is there a trick to fill the gas tank of a VIP Peace Sports Scooter 150cc?

by Avis-Marie Barnes
(Orlando, Florida)

I have to fill the tank in drips and drabs to keep it from overflowing and ending up with gas in the storage compartment under the seat. It just seems it takes longer than it should and i always walk away from the station smelling of gasoline...


If there is a trick that makes this go faster and without or just a bit of spillage, please enlighten a sister!!

Filling a scooter tank NEW

I had that problem the 1st time I tried to fill mines, don't fully insert the nozzle, I hold it near the top so that the fuel can keep flowing till the tank is near overflowing if desired, not really difficult to do and saves messing around with a fuel can:P

Buy a small gas can and fill scooter from the can.

Battery Tender Junior in package

A battery tender like the Battery Tender Jr. can make all the difference in whether your scooter will start right up each spring, after being stored for months.

Just about every scooter owner needs to have a battery tender, sometimes called a trickle charger. Unless you are lucky enough to live in a climate where you can ride all year long, chances are your scooter will be put on ice, figuratively-speaking, for at least a couple months every winter.

One of the key steps in winterizing a scooter is to protect your battery from draining during its "rest" period. This can – and will – happen if you leave your battery sitting untended in your cold scooter over the winter, even if it's in a garage or shed.

Read our review or go right to Amazon.com to buy this highly recommended Battery Tender Jr NOW...
