$159.50 ticket for an unregistered vehicle. Plead not guilty and court date is 5/25 How can you give a ticket for an unregistered vehicle when the you can't even register the vehicle in the 1st place?:mad2: Did find out it was the Chief of Police that issued the ticket. Also just joined the...

Yerf Dog Go-Kart Model 1203a After today, I have had enough. With the whole ticket thing...I have no place to ride this around here. I paid $260 on Ebay. I just put $70 in tires on it and just put the carb rebuild kit (needle, seat and seals) Runs like a champ...governor clip is missing. It's...

quick update... carb rebuild kit did the trick...no more leaks or anything. Running like a champ now!!:thumbsup:

I got a ticket for riding my kart in a parking lot (and field next to lot) ticket is for an unregistered vehicle:huh: Already plead not guilty and I am finding nothing regarding ATVs and karts in the PennDot code online. Ticket is $160.00:furious2: Anybody ever run into this? edit to add-...

OMG... WTF is that? :roflol: I hope he never took that for a test ride. One of my favorite websites (besides this one now) is Instructables.com and there a few wooden karts on there. I'll see if I can dig some up. $190...is he serious? If by some far stretch I would ever think of buying...

I was thinking today while driving home from getting my kart tires. If one could procure...say a 500 or 600cc motorcycle engine complete; how hard would it be to mount that sucker up to the back of the kart and include a shifter to crank through the gears? I don't think my kart weighs much more...

Problem solved:cheers2: Actually found a guy that is like 2 miles away and he is a wiz at this stuff. Had the springs on and working in about 5 minutes and I bought a carb rebuild kit while I was there. So I know what I am doing tomorrow! All set...throttle works, carb will be good to go...

Will try to post some pics tomorrow if I can't figure it out. I did not even think to check to see if the float was full. Thanks for all the input. :mad2:

Thank you, that's what made sense to me. Now, to figure out how to get the springs on so it stays shut. That should be fun because I haven't the foggiest on how to do this. I don't think the springs were on correct when I got it because the butterfly valve is always open...hence the gas pouring...

Solomon, Thanks for the tip, now I know!! I was thinking about it to but decided against it to avoid any gassy fingerprints on my iphone...LoL If anyone has a pic of the Tecumseh 5hp motor rear (where all the springs are) could you please post it? It would help immensely!! I guess what I...

Everything seemed normal, but I am no expert. I guess the bigger problem is the placement of the spring(s). Like I said, the one looks like a bent paperclip, so I removed it. Now I am not so sure I have any of the springs on right. The spring(s) in question go to the arm that opens/closes the...

I just purchased a Yerf-Dog 1203a from Ebay. The motor is a Tecumseh Power Sports 5HP I ran it for the first time last week and gas was pouring from the air cleaner. Knowing a little about engines in general, I cleaned up the carb today. The carb seemed fine, everything moved freely and was not...

Just registered. Recently purchased a Yerf-Dog 1203a from Ebay and may need some help. I will save that for another post though.:auto:
