Vespa px150 2014 model not running smoothly and feels like it is missing especially at low speed. fitted new NGK BR7HS which seems to be the right plug.

Haven't used it for around 4 weeks and put a fresh plug in before resuming riding it. Same plug that was in before.

Check your fuel filter and regap your new plug. There usually 2 thousands of an inch off what there suppose to be. If that's 87 octane gas it could have water in it.

SOURCE: not firing right on no.4

First check plug and make sure the right plug for this vehicle,make sure that the heat rating for this plug is correct. Your problem could be a wrong heat rating plug been installed. Also make sure that the misfire is due to a bad plug and NOT a bad injector or injector wiring or uneven compression or even bad coil. Check injector wiring and make sure it not shorting or broken. To check injector pulse use a NOID light can be bought at almost any auto parts store like Auto-zone etc. Also compression can be checked with compression guage. A rule of thumb to go by is if any cylinder has more than 10 PSI in difference in compression there is a problem like a burnt valv etc. Here is a n example cyl# 1 170psi cyl#2 176 psi cyl#172psi cyl# 4 150 psi, there is a problem with cylinder # 4 and will cause a miss from cylinder #4. Good luck and thank for using FIX YA

SOURCE: The Proper plugs

should be around .30-.35". You most likely have a dirty carb issue which will cause the bike to run poorly at lower RPMs as this is on a different fuel circuit in the carbs, know as the pilot jet. You may be able to run some carb cleaner through them. I recommend seafoam, or chevron techron. Mix according to the instructions on the bottle.

SOURCE: G'day, I have a simplicity express ride on mower that was running when I got it, I've put a new battery in it, new spark plug, new fuel filter and new fuel lines. Last time I used it was running great

that video sounded like a very low battery, and, if you know your not getting spark, check the plug wires for continuity, and that there are good connection to spark plugs, once you get spark, then make sure you are getting fuel

Feels like miss firing at higher speeds

Your caption says misfires at high, then you say low? You have a 95. Lots of miles I assume. So there are several things that would cause misfires at high and low. First is timing chain/belt, sloppy. Second, would be the valves and rings. Valves worn or bent, not seating right. rings just worn out, not holding compression. Do a compression test and see. Low speed or idle misfires can be from vacuum leaks. check hoses. Low and high rpm misfires can be from ignition problems. Wiring, coil/s, ignition modules.

Scooter keeps bogging down and missing when warmed up

Have you ever cleaned out the carburetor? Rebuilt it or cleaned it out chemically? Might also have a weak spark - check out your coil.

Running rough-1987 Ford Ranger 2.3 L 4 cyl. Had been running very smoothly until 2 weeks ago when it began backfiring and running rough, especially at low speeds, without my having made any adjustmen

If your car has a mas air flow sensor (usualy located right aroung air filter or in air passage after the air filter) check and clean the sensor. This looks like a small spring on the end of 2 wires. BE CAREFUL not to damage the sensor. I have seen where the sensor gets dirty over time and this can cause a rough idle.

My toyota camry will not pick speed especially when it climbing a hill

this could be caused by an ignition problem, wrong parts, or a timing problem.
try using ngk or denso(ngk recommended) spark plugs, ngk spark plug wires, and if needed new coils. ngk and denso are the factory recommended parts for the model, i have a 98 camry lewith a 2.2.
also if it is low mileage, below 200k or doesnt leak oil, try castrol syntec 5w 30 oil and a k&n air filter

Sounds like you have a c/v joint beginning to go bad...Could be wrong.... but, I'm not there to test it! Look underneath and see if any c/v boots are torn... that will be your first clue!!
