    Dingo Manco Fox 2x5 LXT Torque Converter replacement

    Nice, I was just learning about this online and was also learning about the washer under the throttle handle that can be removed to allow it to flow easier.. gonna check if mine has it in there still and remove if so. I've not really played around with adjusting small engine throttles before...

    Dingo Manco Fox 2x5 LXT Torque Converter replacement

    I added a video right after that's where my kid is reving it and it did it as she let off.. But when I first cranked it, before it warmed it up it died on me a couple times and backfired once.. So, I pulled out my camera to record what was happening incase I had questions.. Check out the videos...

    Dong fang 200gka go kart

    Can you take some pics of your pulley's for the belt? Also, you need to measure from the center of the each shaft for the pulleys that the belt goes around. Here's a link about the details on pulley's. There is actually quite a bit that goes into choosing the right belt, it's not just about the...

    Dingo Manco Fox 2x5 LXT Torque Converter replacement

    Here's a quick video I made yesterday to let it run, you can hear it backfire at 12 or 13sec in. For fun, here's a video I made before trying to get my 8yr old to help me, but he was scared the kart would take off on him as it did me the week before lol that's now burned into him forever!

    Dingo Manco Fox 2x5 LXT Torque Converter replacement

    I tried to set it back up with the old parts last night just to see if it would ride, but the chain wasn't long enough anymore. Rest of the new parts come in today but probably won't have time to mess with it until tomorrow 😠 Another issue I gotta work that I'm reading up on now, is I think the...

    Hey, so I can you help me understand what's going on with this speed square? I see the 2x4 you have but why is the top of the square not touching anything?

    Steering Adjustments

    Damn! I love how easy you made this look, one handed and a camera in the other and traded off hand to hand! The video is just what I needed. I want to see if I can make some adjustments and will definitely use a couple straight boards. Thank you!

    Steering Adjustments

    Cool thanks, that's just what I needed to start sourcing more material on it! I did start browsing through the DIY articles here on the home page that I had not paid any attention to until after I posted this yesterday. I now will be getting more educated on everything, even if those archives...

    Brake system Recommendation for Predator 420cc engine

    I keep reading over your op to find what break system it has but I don't see it. Could you elaborate and maybe share some pics? I'm gonna go ahead and let you know what others are sure to weigh in on soon. If you're going to go with a 420cc which has 13hp stock from a 212cc which has 6.5hp...

    Wheel and tire setup?

    I'm confused by what you're meaning when you say 4x4. At first, I thought you were talking about making the 2 live axles, and in guess 2 TC. I've seen a video by CarsandCameras where they do 4 motors, one one each wheel lol So by 4x4, are you talking about using 4 of the exact same rims and...

    I finally heard back from BMI about 4pm EDT.. anyhow, here is their response to my detailed email about the situation last night You do not need to remove the bearings to install the shaft, you should be able to install the mount under the engine, and then slide the jackshaft through the...

    Steering Adjustments

    I was searching through the forums for what I am sure a topic that has been covered plenty; Steering! I'd like to adjust and improve the steering on my Dingo Fox 2x5 LXT but the link I found in this thread: Stearing Problem. It says that it's been closed from further comments, so I could not...

    Dingo Manco Fox 2x5 LXT Torque Converter replacement

    I was unable to get the shaft to go in while the bearings were in mount. I do not have the green tube of grease meant for marine with me, but I do have some in my grease gun at home. I do however have with me some 2-4-C gear lube from working on my Larson (boat). I was able to gently knock out...

    Help me fix this mess.

    I'm looking forward to the experienced folk here chiming in soon.. I'm too much of a noob to add much value, but I will tell you if it were mine I'd be inspecting this weld pretty good to ensure it's not in need of more.

    Hammer head 208r

    I have and use it and have ordered a bottle of red I intended to use on the crank case when I tap the gov port, but was wondering if this was a sealant mad professor was against too.. I did not like the look of using a sealant as a head gasket or valve cover gasket but made sense to me for...
