  • @ShaunKjar
    @ShaunKjar 7 лет назад +1

    Love this! I recently bought one for my kids. Please do the "free power" mods so I can compare my stocker to yours. Also, I wonder if gopowersports would hook you up with the 40 series torque converter so you could review the difference between the 30 series and 40 series. Here's an idea I've had too: take the engine off the rear swingarm and make an engine cradle for the frame, run a chain from the TC sprocket to a sprocket mounted near the hinge point of the rear swingarm with another sprocket right next to it with a chain running to the axle. You'd need a couple pillow blocks. I think it would be more like a rzr. I wonder if it would squat more under power?
    I've also wondered about finding a way to have either bearings or a bushing at the pivot point of the rear swingarm. Not a big deal, but the hinge there seems kind of sloppy and noisy.

    John and Ike- Came across your videos a few days ago, and have been binge watching them ever since. Love the dynamic of your friendship. You two are truly lucky to share the same passion, and Ike's humble attitude is just great to watch. Brings me back to my earlier years of constantly tinkering with go karts, dirt bikes, and anything I could get my hands on. Now i'm approaching my thirties and my only toy right now is my C5 Z06 with a centrifugal blower. You guys are really tempting me to go grab a cheap go kart, and build up something fun with my teenage neighbor who is always coming over, asking questions and helping me work on the Vette. Maybe I can be his Ike, lol. Keep up the good builds, good times, and good company! P.S. I vote for boosting the 670 2 cylinder, or doing a diesel build to roll that coal... it'll be fine!

    Hey Ike. To fix the idling issue with the Tecumseh, back out the little gold screw next to the primer bulb. Clean it out and blow air through the hole in the screw and put it back in. It made mine run like a dream.

    @jakemcgregor8117 7 лет назад

    @santiago101100 7 лет назад

    I put a 420 cc on my yerf dog and it's pretty nice. I added 4 shocks in the front to help with jumping. You should do the same it helps a lot. Also add some height on the roll cage. And stop using the factory brakes it'll bend the frame on the left side add an axel brake. Great video!

  • @tronsmart2185
    @tronsmart2185 7 лет назад

    I bought a dingo with the same engine. The carb jet is the bolt holding the bowl in place. Clean that thing out with a wire. Then you will want to clean the idle circuit. You have to remove the little black flat plastic/rubber plug and then unscrew the idle circuit. It is non adjustable so just blow out the circuit with some carb spray and put it back in. It should run pretty smooth after that.. Or you can just buy a new carb, they are only like 12 bucks on ebay.
    Those Tecumseh power sport engines are pretty lack luster though. I don't think they were rated truthfully by the manufacturer. So putting a 212 on it should pep it up nicely.

    Are the railroad tracks abandoned? If so it would be cool to build a rail cart! You wouldn't even have to have a steering wheel! It would be interesting to see how fast it could go since railroads use gradual grades unlike regular vehicles.

    I reckon a street bike engine would be great for this kart, you wouldn't have to worry about clutch or torque converters and it would be that much faster
