What do you have against video games? Nvm, you'll probably just spout some bs conspiracy theory about video games and violence.. I fix and build shit AND play video games.
Tool kits are really handy in the woods.Besides the master links,take a mini hand pump and tire plug/patch kit,and extra fuel filters,and a 'lil baling wire,just in case....
Nice Job :) as good as I could Have done myself :) Put Grease fittings on all swivel points, Does my heart Good to see Young Men able to use tools, fabricate and weld, keep up the great work. Chellie, Retired Female Fleet Equipment Mechanic and Metal Fabricator/Welder.
I like it, you know if you look at the chassis it looks like a small sprint car, I sort of salivated with the thoughts of that and the possibilities...
The problem with sputtering is due to having a sealed gas tank. I think that is why the GS powered dune buggy is dieing is due to a vacuum building up and not allowing fuel to flow into the carb.
If you do paneling on the front I would like to see it on the sides. It might would look cool if you put the panels on the inside of the frame and then paint the frame one color and the sheet metal another. Just an idea
Great video as always bro. I know how bad you felt about that van but I have to be honest, I laughed to tears. Love your videos and keep up the great work.
Oh... one more thing, you might consider adding a plexi-glass front windshield for a bit of protection from flying debris, bugs, and wind at higher speeds.
man I know I said it before but you got boat loads of talent young man, wish you were closer I would get you to build me a gas tank..lol.. your videos are great keep it up.
Ya know... if you were to buy a used Harley 5 speed transmission off of Craigslist, eBay, or a salvage yard, and got it to work with the torque converter on this thing... it would go from awesome to totally rad man. 😎
on the torque converter check the outer most cover/ part on the drive pulley. check the hole were the bolt goes to hold every thing together, check and see if the hole is chewed up at all, and that would be your sticking problem.
I have been watching the whole series and I've never seen so much welding for a project. It nice to see the different type of welds you are using in various parts of the build. I know you mentioned that sometimes a 15-second segment may actually take 1-2 hours. To me, it looks like you are not working from a plan you drew up, you are kinda playing it by ear. I've also never seen a measuring device, do you hold the pipe up to the kart, mark it and measure it? Nice video series. Keep broadcasting!!
Just an idea Why not keep the small gastank as a reserve? That way, you allways gone get out of the woods. If you only have the big one and it runs dry, your stranded. Giving the weigth of this thing, pushing it would be a hustle. Having a reserve, makes it even more offroad-friendly. Nice job, dude. Been watching the whole series, and subbed ;p
To help with the panel making noise u can use a bead roller, I think harbor fright has one. or bead roll ur logo, also weld tabs to the frame so the panel bolts on
Getting the weight of the engine off the rear axle would be a great improvement. It would require some method of maintaining drive tension during the suspension travel. I am not an engineer and have some thoughts on this. Perhaps you can make some designs that will work.
Have you added up the total of the products that you used in this project? I'd like to hear how much the materials cost you. Applause to you for your hard work and diligence. After watching you manually bend tubes and fish mouth them for welding, I can clearly see that you have a ton of additional time in fabrication. Those of us that do this, can understand. Great Job! Thanks, Mark
Awesome.No such thing as 'too much fuel'.It weighs enough,so corrugated plastic panels screwed onto tabs?Easy on/off, for repairs,weather decisions,and Lighter.?
The reason it is sputtering and wanting to die is because of the gas cap not allowing the gasses caused from the pressure in the tank to escape. You need to get a proper vented cap it will cause pressure in the tank without that and cause your float to shut the fuel off.
If you add the sheet metal skin, I'd roll it up about Six inches at the top where a a windscreen would go. Make it so it stops just above the steering wheel. Otherwise it just looks too flat, blocky, & plain. Maybe even have it partially roll over the sides just to give it some contours. But all and all, nice build. As far as your custom trans... I built one very similar. I'm guessing it's getting stuck do to the pins binding in the sprocket holes. May I suggest an improvement? Instead of pins, use something like 1/4" thick by 1" long chunks of slightly curved steel. And make the tail end of them slightly ramped. This way when you disengage the gear selector, the sprocket will assist in separating itself from the selector. As you apply braking to the jackshaft, the trailing edge of the holes in the sprocket run up the ramps as it continues rotating just enough to where it pushes the selector out of the holes and away from the sprocket. This all happens as the jackshaft is coming to a stop. This all assumes the jackshaft sprocket spin free when disengaged. I hope that makes sense? You're a smart dude, I'm sure you get what I'm saying. LOL. 🍻 ✌
Didn't QR wreck someones garage door? No one is immune to life's mechanical failures. Shit happens. Everyone was cool about it. Besides, now it's a popular dent, that just needs a Rather B Welding autograph.
I think I may have an idea as to why you're running into the problem with the engine not wanting to run as your day wears on, you need to vent your gas tank. As you pull fuel out of the tank it starts to form a vacuum in the tank (and yes, I know the cap leaks a wee bit) so the engine begins to starve for fuel. Easy way to test my theory would be to drive it around until it starts to stutter, stop, remove your gas cap, replace it and see if it runs any smoother.

LOVE TO SEE A YOUNG MAN IN THE SHOP AND NOT BEHIND A VIDEO GAME.>> good job.
Me Too :) To many young men dont know how to use tools, fabricate and think things out.
What do you have against video games? Nvm, you'll probably just spout some bs conspiracy theory about video games and violence.. I fix and build shit AND play video games.
Thank you for taking your time. The go kart is great and your education presented it self.
It’s great to see you guys collaborating I’ve been a quad fan for about 2years.
Tool kits are really handy in the woods.Besides the master links,take a mini hand pump and tire plug/patch kit,and extra fuel filters,and a 'lil baling wire,just in case....
Really great job. you are talented buddy. thanks for sharing.
Thanks again for sharing this video.
Nice Job :) as good as I could Have done myself :) Put Grease fittings on all swivel points, Does my heart Good to see Young Men able to use tools, fabricate and weld, keep up the great work. Chellie, Retired Female Fleet Equipment Mechanic and Metal Fabricator/Welder.
dude you did better set up then I ever did. looks great, I'd rethink about the tank mounts and go with rubber to a point.
I love ur work bro.. nice job... I watch from the start... Just one thing.. more welding so more strong the frame... Nice thumbs up
I like it, you know if you look at the chassis it looks like a small sprint car, I sort of salivated with the thoughts of that and the possibilities...
The problem with sputtering is due to having a sealed gas tank. I think that is why the GS powered dune buggy is dieing is due to a vacuum building up and not allowing fuel to flow into the carb.
Also there are no baffles in the tank so at low fuel level a good slosh could cause a lot of sputtering.
Hill On Wheels drill a small hole on the cap or put one way valve to avoid vacuuming in the tank
Agreed.. i saw that coming when he pressure tested the tank..needs like a check valve or something in cap.
I agree, don't like the fuel tank for off road.Vented with baffles and a better sealing fuel cap
If you do paneling on the front I would like to see it on the sides. It might would look cool if you put the panels on the inside of the frame and then paint the frame one color and the sheet metal another. Just an idea

Totally in Agreement :)
this guy is a legend
You could tack weld the body panel and then attach to all of the cross members with beads of construction adhesive. That would dampen the rattling.
man I know I said it before but you got boat loads of talent young man, wish you were closer I would get you to build me a gas tank..lol.. your videos are great keep it up.

Amazing Mashine!
Primer? Paint?...
coulda left that little tank as a reserve so u never get stranded
Very nice man .
I put yamalube grease in my torque converter and it works a lot better so I would recommend trying to get some and put some on the torque converter
Sounds like you had a good shakedown run
you can use a bearing box with a screw tensioner like a cycle rear wheel hub.
You can lift the seat a bit, also when you paint it, you can boil the paint and brush it, comes out like glass.
Time to build a mini rock bouncer!
That's a cool buggy I'm trying to build one I have a 110 cc honda motor for it I just have to build the frame and get the tires
It's actually a good thing the cap leaks. You need it to breath otherwise pulling fuel into the curb will cause it to vacuum and flow rate will drop.
Don't forget spring plate for gears...pushing in both directions
on the torque converter check the outer most cover/ part on the drive pulley. check the hole were the bolt goes to hold every thing together, check and see if the hole is chewed up at all, and that would be your sticking problem.
mine is doing that also but it all looks good. even tried graphite.

Your tank needs a breather mate! Nice job!
for leaks use Dye Check ..get it at any welding store

Keep up the good videos

That dog was angry. lol
The tin cover you want to fit, silicon it on, easy, wont rattle, and easy to get off later if you want to.
On another note time to step up to IRS!
On the cover a slight crease corner to corners in a metal brake would keep it from oil canning and rattling. plus would look cool.
What tube did you use for the frame?
Its good that It leaks q little, allows air flow so that gas will exit the tank
That particular off road cart what is the make?
Could you fit a manual clutch to this ? Pretty sure it would help with gear changes and landing jumps without damaging parts
Use a constant mesh gear system , and use electric clutches to engage and disengage each gear.
Awesome.No such thing as 'too much fuel'.It weighs enough,so corrugated plastic panels screwed onto tabs?Easy on/off, for repairs,weather decisions,and Lighter.?
Oh,electric fan for motor,and converter area?(Can always run a duct up for your feet in winter.?)
Did you vent the gas cap?
What color are you going 2 paint it?
The reason it is sputtering and wanting to die is because of the gas cap not allowing the gasses caused from the pressure in the tank to escape. You need to get a proper vented cap it will cause pressure in the tank without that and cause your float to shut the fuel off.
i love your welder, what model is it
If you add the sheet metal skin, I'd roll it up about Six inches at the top where a a windscreen would go. Make it so it stops just above the steering wheel. Otherwise it just looks too flat, blocky, & plain. Maybe even have it partially roll over the sides just to give it some contours. But all and all, nice build.

I hope that makes sense? You're a smart dude, I'm sure you get what I'm saying. LOL. 🍻 ✌
Nice one!
What kind of welder is it that he uses?
I've already seen the qr video in fact it's actually how I found this channel
Lol, I've been subscribed to rather b welding for a while. I just saw quad ricers video in my recommended.
Same lol
Same. Just subscribed
Are you going to leave it raw looking or you going to paint the frame
wow a seat belt!!!
Cool. Thanks man. Say do you use flux core welder cause that is all I have at present?
Dude u wrecked in to the penny pincher rice van
Didn't QR wreck someones garage door? No one is immune to life's mechanical failures. Shit happens. Everyone was cool about it. Besides, now it's a popular dent, that just needs a Rather B Welding autograph.
Hell, all the youtube celebs should leave their mark. Make it a thing.
Yeah and penny pincher said it was fine and he even offered to pay to get it fixed
the gas tank shouyld have rubber bushing when install on metal to avoid spark
It will also crack due to vibration if not rubber mounted, that's why motorbike tanks are always rubber mounted.
welds crack at some poine t the tank will crack .should be held with straps .ever seen any vehicle welded in ,there all strapped
Could need a vented gas cap might be vapour locking when gas gets lower, causing sputter and dying out.
In the future,try Smoke testing the tank for leaks.
A little air pressure and a spray bottle with dish soap and water works too.
now too the motor heisting, that would be your drive belt.
Graphite lube from home Depot on that drive clutch
They sell a manual clutch for predator engines, that’d help with all those transmission issues
Put rubber gasket on the gas tank cap to avoid spilling of gas
I think I may have an idea as to why you're running into the problem with the engine not wanting to run as your day wears on, you need to vent your gas tank. As you pull fuel out of the tank it starts to form a vacuum in the tank (and yes, I know the cap leaks a wee bit) so the engine begins to starve for fuel. Easy way to test my theory would be to drive it around until it starts to stutter, stop, remove your gas cap, replace it and see if it runs any smoother.
all joint should have grease fitting on it
Você e um jenio
I think that you have forget compartments in the tank, for the inertia of the fuel
what part of country are you at
You should do mesh metal on the frame
I bet you wish you had a tig welder for the gas tank
Less talk, more work!!
Buen video
Sorry, if u dont mind, how much money you spent for that toys.
there has to be a vent in that gas tank otherwise the gas wont flow to the engine properly
You should get the yz85 running again
ospho will be your best friend for metal until you paint it then it's already treated and primed
Burn it....🔥🔥
rip quad ricers van lol
Is your head okay?
I would have left the little gas tank on for a spare, just in case you run out of gas in the middle of nowhere.
you're welding backwards with the mig. youre meant to push, not pull ( like a stick welder ).
I would have painted it orange.
Levert go powersports ook in Nederland?
Misha Crum they have go power sports in nether land
Misha Crum ja overal ter wereld
👍🏻
cool
You're dog's are nuts 8:28
Yeah we just wondering if you wanted to build me a go kart let me know you did a good job
you're as good as macgyver
Man you got a get ya self a tig
Small 110v inverter arc and tig welders are under $200. I have used mine for lots of tanks.
👍👏
I would have the small fuel cell as an emergency fuel supply
ever think of getting a tig welder ?
bro put some rubber or silicone in the cap of the gas tank so it won't leak again
Have you ever built a go kart with a motorcycle engine?
Now that you have built a great kart concider a motorcycle engine with a 5 speed then all problems gone.
I Agree :)
Why are you pinging the gas tank on your weld
