I put a 196cc electric start clone engine on a gokart project recently, and added a remote choke setup as well. I got the Honda kit meant for a gX160 and it fit like a glove. I then got a cable off Amazon, but I reckon it's the same one at a local auto part shop too. It's amazing how handy that remote choke is!!

    A little tip! The section under the car was a little blurry. You can fix this with a higher shutter speed. Usually this causes a slower video but you brought a light down there which is perfect. If you wanna reduce motion blur in the hand held sections, same applies. This should make the paused video look way better :)

    One thing I would do to this project is mounting a Thule roof rack and a fuel tank on top of it.
    Then gravity feed the little tank and have a valve on the left mirror to control it.
    All fuel lines fixated on the exterior for safety.
    A road trip would be awesome

    Another nice one! My only complaint is that since I’ve started watching your series that you tube is giving me mostly suggested videos regarding Honda insights! I don’t care about Honda insights! But you’re doing some really neat stuff with a street legal go cart and putting it in a superb video. You’re like a G rated AvE with music! That’s a compliment.

    If you continue with your channel I'm sure you'll get an even bigger audience. These videos are pretty much one of a kind

    I love your projects but, a little bit of advice. Don't weld for long periods of time without gloves. One time I had a few beers and started welding out in the garage without gloves or long sleeves. The next day I had horrible sunburn on my arms from the uv rays. Just some friendly advice from someone who already made that mistake. 🙂

    Gnomes like marshmallows. Maybe you can use em to trap the buggers.
