    Thinking of cleaning your carburetor?

    There seems to be a rash of people asking how to clean a carb. There are so many different types so I'm not going into how to do it but I do have some advise. Go get a can of this! It runs about $20 and can be found at any auto parts store or even Walmart. It comes with a nifty dunking/parts...

    I need some wireless transmitter help

    So to fill in the gaps for you guys. We bought a clay pigeon chucker. It runs on 12v and throws random directions. It pretty cool. It has a long cord for the trigger button. Well, the problem is we can't do anything normally. We want to set it out and throw AT us sometimes. A draw of straws...

    Going from a 9 to 8 tooth front sprocket

    How much change in gear ratio is noticeable? Got a 54 rear with a hard to change set up (dingo). The front is a 9 tooth. This gives a 6:1 ratio. If I go to an 8 tooth front it will go to a 6.75:1 Is that .75 enough? I don't think they make a 7 tooth 5/8" bore, so any more gearing would have...

    A tale of two Dingo's

    It starts with having 5 acres around the house and a lot of dirt. Quads and dirtbikes are fun but I just wanted a yard bomber. And besides I have big toys to go play with. So I found this kart of FB locally. I looked it over and told him it needed a ton of work. Carb was open, bowl off and...

    Changing Flyweights in comet 40

    Hi. I have recently acquired 2 Manco Dingos each with a 9hp B&S OHV. They have a comet 40 series torque converter. I see there are different springs available to adjust the rpm engagement.
