Getting close to the 2022 average for reg unleaded…

😁

Oooh, I bet the nuts and bolts are quite seized. Can you remove the sprocket and brake disc and go inward? Is there a nut on the opposite end (where the wheel mounts)? I see a threaded end with a hole for a cotter pin. Make sure you use some good tools, wrenches, sockets and an impact wrench...

Tecumseh Technician's Handbook for 4-cycle L-head (flathead) engines. Below is a web link (may not always be there) and I attached a downloadable pdf file. 5.1MB 121 pages. http://www.smallenginesuppliers.com/html/engine-specs/tecumseh/Tecumseh_L-Head_Engines_Service_Information.pdf

Here is a Tecumseh L-head service manual. I will probably upload it later to the site in a separate thread so it will always be here on DIYGK. http://www.smallenginesuppliers.com/html/engine-specs/tecumseh/Tecumseh_L-Head_Engines_Service_Information.pdf Tell us what the numbers on the...

I have been looking at that one or the slightly larger LCP Max but have heard they (both) are nasty little guns and they HURT recoil-wise 😭 boo hoo hoo. Plus the price point, often sold for $119-199 (both models, roughly give or take). I have not checked a big retailer like Academy, yet, just...

Thanks for the photo. Finally saw the maker's name (and model) in an email spam I got from that gadawful Classic Firearms. DB, what the heck is that? :rolleyes:;) I agree with Grizzly. So it's a a striker-fired Wonder 9? Looks Glock-ish. Is it a pocket carry gun? If so can you photo it in your...

I am wondering, since the kart was likely intended to be sold in Europe where the metric system is established, is anything on the kart including the engine, metric? 1 inch equals 25.4mm. You must get a caliper and measure what you have, both the engine crankshaft diameter and the torque...

Oh wow, that one IS bad, the recess for the "barrel end" of the cable looks wonky. It's usually oriented 90° sideways and well-captured in the tube thing, kind of like I have illustrated in green.... I also see no notch or stop molded into the tube thingy. Technically speaking you may not...

Anywhere you want. I bought mine from ebay. Nowadays, I might pick a U.S. seller to make sure it was free shipping for ease and quickness.

Pics or it didn’t happen. 😁 Seriously. Seems there’s always something new to learn about these mysterious TCs, so much to learn… 👀

You’ve got to be joking.

Well, back to the topic guys, seems weird when you read the first post and how crazily alarmist I was back then. Everything’s fine now! 😜 Anyway, to revisit Hal Turner again he writes that an lubricant industry insider says now would be a great time to stock up on oils too. Motor oils...

Seconded. This is an acceptable way to both check the oil and add new oil. In some of your photos the angle of your motor mount can't really be seen, I almost missed it. For some racing engines, the amount of oil used in the crankcase is by volume and not determined by the mark on the dipstick...

Is that a cable stop on the cable that is captured inside the clevis fork?

¡Bienvenido! :welcome2:

Looks like the carburetor may be all there but the pull start needs to be serviced so the rope isn't hanging out like that. Having an operating pull-start is important I think as it teaches you and your son to master manual starting. Nice to see good old American go karts in Norway! 🇳🇴

When is his birthday? If it is tomorrow (or in a week), a lack of planning on your part does not make it my emergency... 😄 What is your level of mechanical ability? Are you a total novice? If it were me, I'd just get the engine running and clean up the kart really well, wash it and maybe even...

Just ragging on your Bubbafied-remote tank and the zip tied air filter. I see the bulky factory tank mounted on the cross tube all the time. Will the tank not mount in the original place? What is the purpose of that large red plate above the flywheel? If it's just a billboard, well I'll...

I suppose you could go ahead and buy the motorcycle style that has the 90° elbow on it so the cable is routed along the handlebars, but you may not want that. I have this style which so happens to match my 1981 Honda XL185 to a T (those nasty Chinese copycats).. The black cable routing...
