Phill;
You’ll have to be more specific than that! Do you have a actual Vespa or Vespa-Type? What Model is it? Vespa has more than one 49cc model. What year is it?? Age is a factor! If its really old, than seals and gaskets may need to be replace. As in engine rebuild!! Lastly, does your mechanic know how to work on Vespa’s. Surprisingly, most motorcycle mechanics(ones I have come across) have not a clue on how to work on them!
Not much for a quick fix,With the exception of making sure that nut and bolts are tighten on the engine.
