    Found it this guy tests all kinds of gas station pills. His channel is loaded with him taking pills with Chinese writing all over them bought at the gas station.

    The post below is a cropped Facebook post a girl made yesterday about her mother. You yourself could find this very Facebook post if you searched. I cropped it to remove the name of the person who publicly posted this about her mother on facebook. People will go out of there way to do ANYTHING...

    Don’t want any of it… I’ll stick to the gokarts and talk about the drugs as an excuse to stay out of trouble IF pulled over. Flaunt drug use and how the illegal stuff is now sold over the counter to anyone who can flash a license proving there 18… All of the sudden people don’t see the person...

    I’m nearly 30 years old and ride a gokart 30 miles down to the highway onramp and the 30 miles back sometimes multiple times a day! If anyone ever complained I will not ****ing hesitate to set down with them and ask them sensible questions. Do you want kids having fun in july on mini bikes...

    Streaker gokart refresh

    15 amp voltage regulator installed throttle connected and I put a new set of points on the kohler. Waiting on wheel bearings and spacers for the front. I have to go buy some chain. Hook up the very simple wiring and lastly bolt the fuel pump to the backing plate and run new fuel line. Once all...

    Streaker gokart refresh

    I have to bolt the fuel pump to the torque converter plate and run new fuel lines. The torque converter backing plate has to be removed real quick so I can install the new points. Then I can bolt on the new 30 series and I’m still waiting for bearings and 5/8 axle spacers for the front in the...

    Streaker gokart refresh

    The seat is in bad shape but it’s the only high back tractor seat I have. All parts are ordered painted or just in general ready to go. No more pictures needed until the 26th when the sprocket shows up in the mail and I can fully assemble and finish this refresh up. Then to tear down the...

    Clean strip paint stripper

    15 minutes and it ripped the paint right off the seat frame and smaller parts. I figure a couple cans so I can do 2 or three coats and I can greatly speed up the process of going through the streaker with the blue engine.

    Clean strip paint stripper

    I tried out some of the clean strip paint stripper that comes in a spray paint style can and it made the job go a lot quicker. I’m gonna be using this stuff instead of a wire wheel from now on. The one warning is breathing this stuff in gets you a free ticket to another dimension.

    Governor ADJUSTMENT (delete?)

    I’m guessing there is no flywheel or slide carb upgrade. A simple intake/carb would delete the governor and make hooking up a throttle cable very very easy! Just a thought to look into. Even though it would make hooking the cable up safe and easy the governor delete isn’t the safest thing...

    Streaker gokart refresh

    319cc and these things just don’t die…. The engines themselves are massive cast iron 8hp k181s models and they come on wheelhorse tractors. I bolted the wheelhorse engine mount to the streaker engine mount so I could mount the engine up to the stock 5hp plate. The eBay header and vm22 bolt on...

    Cheap Chinese TC? / A lesson in rushing purchases.

    Sadly my phone just doesn’t display the videos.. The carburetor should have two screws to adjust. One for the idle and one for the mixture. There are fixed jet non adjustable carburetors. Those carburetors only have an idle adjustment. Don‘t mess with any of that yet. BUT so you have an idea...

    Cheap Chinese TC? / A lesson in rushing purchases.

    Ok so I’m still confused you are able to ride it but it’s slower with the torque converter and has worse acceleration? If that’s the case I would also ask like Sparkwizard did how the engine revs out. Before the engine only had to throw the clutch weights out for the driver pulley clutch setup...

    Streaker gokart refresh

    I thought I had a thread on this but I guess not. The very first ever streaker I ever purchased with the big proud to be an American flag on it has been completely torn down stripped then painted. It will get all new hardware and bearings anything that can be new will be. Waiting on parts now...

    Cheap Chinese TC? / A lesson in rushing purchases.

    I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed :banana: From the one picture I just scrolled past Sparkwizard is correct the belt is way to long I’m guessing under load it’s not only slipping on the driver but also not opening the driven. He is making progress and I looked back is that a 12t sprocket...

    Cheap Chinese TC? / A lesson in rushing purchases.

    The Murray explorer in question has some big tires on the back. And I‘m not exactly understanding the output spins backwards? Is the kart trying to drive in reverse?

    Cheap Chinese TC? / A lesson in rushing purchases.

    I brought up the sleeve inside the jackshaft. He probably had no idea about it and I assume it’s there. I was highlighting that sleeve to show a local tractor supply option of what to use outside of the bearings. He just needs to buy a very short $3 sleeve and cut a very small piece off the end...
