    Where can I find this Drive Wheel?!?

    Here's a link to the parts manual for that kart. It does take an odd arrangement of nuts to properly space and attach the sprocket. I've included some images to help illustrate the setup. The wheel is correct, just pick up the right size nuts and 2 new wheel bearings and you should be good ...

    How to mount predator 212 onto Blackwidow Gokart

    You'll have to remove the torque converter and the chain, then disconnect the throttle cable and any wiring to the engine before you can remove it. Like ezcome says, plop the new engine on the kart & see how it fits. Might need some tweaking, maybe not. Reinstall in reverse order.

    Start up promlems w/ Trailmaster xrs 150

    Grab a can of carb or brake cleaner, start the engine cold then spray cleaner around the base of the intake and see if the RPM's change. This will tell you if it's sucking air through a bad base gasket or rubber seal. New intake manifolds are available. Could be a hairline crack in the manifold...

    Trailmaster Mid XRX-R Fuel Feed Issue

    A new machine shouldn't need a new filter already. Make sure the fuel line isn't kinked or restricted somehow and make sure the fuel valve is completely open. Maybe crack the gas cap open slightly on a level road or surface and see if anything changes. Could be the gas cap isn't venting. Have...

    Trailmaster Mid XRX-R Fuel Feed Issue

    Here's the factory fuel filter, make sure the vacuum fuel valve under the tank is fully open. Trailmaster and Hammerhead are basically the same machine. https://hammerheadperformance.com/hammerhead-parts/buggies-and-karts/150cc-fnr-models/gl-150/fuel-filter

    Predator 212 issues

    With the engine off, the throttle goes wide open. When the engine starts, the governor takes over and lowers the engine speed. Since you have no governor you'll need to add a hefty return spring to close the butterfly at start up to keep the engine from running away when it starts.

    Kill switch on a Predator 420

    You normally splice into or connect to the wire running to the coil mounted at the flywheel. Go with a push button style switch as opposed to a toggle switch, this way you never forget to flip the switch and pull the rope or crank the starter over and over before you realize the switch is off...

    old trike ID

    Thanks Hellion. I tried to register on OMB but even though I can log on I don't have permission to do anything. Dunno. Previous owner had hose clamps holding the axle keys in place, front wheel bearings were seized and there's no master link in the chain. I have the engine off, the rotted seats...

    old trike ID

    Would anyone recognize the brand or make of this older trike I recently picked up? Looks to have a factory Torq-a-Verter installed and the original Tecumseh Power Sport engine, OHH60. Drum brakes. Haven't looked for any badges or labels. Probably painted over. Thanks

    Hey all!

    My guess would be an American Sportworks Blue Lightning kart/buggy with the GY6 replaced with a Predator. Similar to the Helix 6150. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/342022252151452/?_rdr...

    Trailmaster Mini forward momentum after gas oedal released

    Did you install every gasket when you put the carb back on or install them correctly? If you missed a gasket the engine will run lean, suck in too much air and race/idle high.

    Go Kart Newbie - Clutch Question

    Jim, I realize the clutch needs bolted to the crankshaft. What I meant was if there were set screws machined into the clutch, tightening those could keep the clutch from sliding in and out on the crankshaft if I understood him right. I would never trust set screws as the only way to secure a...
