Below you will find some photos of the carb dismantle from the Vespa VL3T.  This shows the carb pieces all laid out in proper order as they were taken out and cleaned from the carb body

Below are some photos of the Vespa VL3T cylinder coming off the bike.  This includes some pictures of the brass gasket at the cylinder head as well as the piston.

Also note I did some light honing on the cylinder and that will be ready to roll when I rebuild.

Here are some photos of the Vespa VL3T clutch cover exterior before removal from the engine case and interior.  Looks pretty clean and the brass bush looks good.  Just a little light cleaning will be needed here.
