[/URL][/IMG] I'm new to repairing karts, trying to help a friend out with his. These are the pics of the kart, and the shaft which goes through the torque converter ,on a robin 8.0hp engine. I had to cut off the nut which was just spinning on the damaged thread section.

I'm currently working on a Manco 606 express, the torque converter came apart, and in trying to remove the nut holding it on to the shaft, the threads were damaged to the point where the shaft needs replacing. Anyone know of a good parts upplier for this machine? I can post pics of the shaft...

Ill get some pictures up..

thanks for replying, going to take another look at it tomorrow, belt seems to have enough tension when under power, looks new. when you say driver clutch, the clutch on the jackshaft?

I just got my hands on a manco 606 kart that has been sitting for sometime and it wouldnt move when you hit the throttle. I removed the clutch off the engine and cleaned it, and now it goes, but it skips or jerks when accelerating. could it be the driven unit?

hello to all in the forum, just joined today and after recieving a manco go kart, with some minor issues, i look forward to discussing problems with this unit.
