I am pretty sure I had it in correctly. I swapped it out and after this reinstalled the red spring. Haven't had an issue with the red spring and installed it the same way. Very strange. But I must have missed something when swapping it out.
Yeah I lined up the pulleys. Had to add a small shim on the driver to even them out. I measured the pulley and the distance between. By looking at the chart it said I needed the 203589A. I would say it's not too small as you can almost put it on without taking off the pulley. If I forced it I...
Yeah I am reading up and getting more familiar with the assembly. I will tear down and clean. Ordered a new green spring for driven pulley. Also a new brass bushing for driver. Got some comet dry lube too. I will clean it up and reassemble. Go from there. Thank you. I appreciate your time and...
This is where i was thinking might be an issue when it first happened. My tires are 22×11x10. Good size tire. I'm not 100% on the gearing. I didn't install it and not 100%. Checking teeth on sprockets now.
I got this off of gokartsupply
..."The 44 Series Driver Clutch is available for 3/4" crankshafts with a 3/16" keyway and 1" crankshafts with a 1/4" keyway. The Driver Clutch drives the system. The Driven Pulley mounts on a keyed, secondary shaft, usually a keyed Jackshaft or Differential. Driven...
Are the 40 and the 44 series the same? I thought I read on gokartsupply that the 44 has a 3/4 version pulley. I don't know I'm genuinely asking. I do plan to go stage 2 soon. The 30 series should still be plenty for this correct? Which would you recommend? The original comet?
I believe it is the red spring. So I will do as you said and try that out. Awesome. Thank you for the response. I will return and let you know what happens when complete. May be a few days as I go back to work tomorrow and won't have much time for it until later I'm the week. But I will and...
Im pretty sure there is no longer a governor. Has been removed as far as I can tell. I can put on a worn belt to try to show whats happening and take a video. Dont want to use a good one again just for it to get chewed up haha. As for the reving up. It did not from what i remember. Just kept...
Recently bought a manco rattler lxt single seater. Has a predator 212 non hemi with a header, genuine mikuni vm222 with intake and air filter, and governor removed. Kart has 22×11×10 tires on it. Having issues with torque converter. It's a 30 series. Believe that the tc is bad. When I got the...
I'm having similar issues. Bought a manco rattler lxt recently to build. Has a predator 212 stage one with a genuine mikuni vm22. When I got the kart the guy said it was eating through belts. I noticed the driver pulley was not aligned with the driven. So I added a small shim to align them. Now...
