I've not put any oil in my engine and the piston has siezed up how can i fix this????

The engine starts and gos but really slowley. The car is a (Piaggio Ape 50) it has motorbike engine.I've not put any oil in my engine and the piston has siezed up how can i fix this????
Get a new engine and dont forget the oil!!!I've not put any oil in my engine and the piston has siezed up how can i fix this????
If it siezed or tried to sieze, the piston rings are probably stuck in the lands and the cylinder wall is scored so that the compression is very low. That is why it runs but slowly and without power. Probably the minimal repair will be new piston and rings with resleaved cylinder. Don't overlook the connecting rod and the crank throw for damage as well.





$$$$ Good luck!
50cc two stroke engine needs oil mixed with fuel or injected in to lubricate the little engine. Burnt piston and cyl wall but internally the engine crank and rod bearings suffered too. Call Italy and get a new motor and do not forget the oil next time. Keep That BEE running smooth. Do not try to drive it with that dammaged engine it will leave you stranded.
The engine may not be in condition to be rebuilt. In any event it is going to be expensive to rebuild the engine, you can probably get a rebuilt engine or a good used engine for less money than you will pay to rebuild this one.
needs a new piston and bore, needs new crankshaft bearings and possible gearbox bearings if you really un lucky because most 50's use the same sump for gearbox and engine.
Rebuild this engine or put in another engine.. costly mistake by not putting oil in your engine.
without any mechanical abilities YOU cant buy another engine from a salvage yard its cheaper than trying to have yours re-built
Get a new engine
