While working to resurrect an old, abused, partly cut up Yerf Dog for the grandkids to run around in, I've been lurking here soaking up much good information, but I want to verify what I think I have learned. I have an engine I want to use. It appears to be Lifan 6.5 hp. It has a 20mm output shaft, and from what I gather, no torque converter style drive is available for that size shaft. I did find a centrifugal clutch in that size but I think the kart is to heavy for that.
Also, is there a thread or a writeup that thoroughly explains the governor on these small engines? I've worked on cars and motorcycles all my long life but have yet to deal with small engines and their unique devices. Please school me.
