He might just be the problem. He’s a first timer and you were reluctant (that might have been your gut instinct giving you a warning). Sounds like a slightly troublesome scenario to me. Again, Carter Brothers: All that High IQ driving stuff being said, lube the steering and keep it greasy. 🛢️💧

Those socket-over-ball tie rod ends are not my favorite as they cannot be lubed easily (they are upside down and have a rubber seal), and when they wear out (the ball hogs out the socket) the socket pops off the ball and you lose your steering. Can be a real bummer out on the trail. These heim...

His steering looks proper for a Brister’s Thunder Kart. The Pittman arm plate, or whatever that is called, is bent or angled from the factory. Since it is so hard to turn the wheel, every pivot point in the steering should be lubed generously with a few drops of fresh engine oil or something...

Oh it is sketchy and dangeous; it’s basically a vaccum cleaner with exposed whirling teeth. That is why they are usually covered up and have a perforated metal screen in that location. The screen is to prevent dirt, leaves or trash from getting sucked up into the blower shroud and stuck in the...

I can see the blue sky over Tunisia 🤩 What he means is, you’re not supposed to see anything through your filter (except some light). I mean if you actually want to filter out dirt particles. Basically yours is little better than a screen door that people have on their doors and windows to let...

Full review. Got pics and a link for them boots? Whitetrashrocker reviews are primo!

Exhausts do get good and hot, that’s why VW used exhaust pipe heat exchangers for maximum effect and (probably) because the heat had to go a long way to and through the *passenger compartment*. By the time it got to the front seats, it might “forget” that it’s supposed to be hot air if you...

Product line continued.... Trail Machines - The trail ends, but your adventure doesn't. Cut new paths with the Trailbusters and Performance Trail Karts designed for the intermediate and adult rider. Standard features on all Trail Machine models include: baked on powder coated finish, 1" live...

That explains a lot. It’s very tank-like and overbuilt, lots of reinforcement and extra metal, meaning it could very well be a concession kart. Good call. Concession karts also have a lot of refined features like extra ball bearings in the spindles or steering column like yours has, to make the...

He’s right. You have free fan-forced air blowing over a large heat source (the engine). Do it the air cooled VW Beetle way. Although the engine was in the extreme rear of those cars, the heat was conducted off the exhaust pipe heat exchangers and forward through ducting, but all from the cooling...

Do you think it was made in the UK or imported? I peeked at your location. If there’s any markings whatsoever on the frame, please show them as they could point to its origin. Even markings on component parts could assist. Where did you get it from, a seller?

While it does have lightweight nylon/Zytel racing kart wheels, the frame looks heavily modified, custom and/or homemade to me. Looks like the seat and the front axle slides via telescoping tubing.... I will wait for the other members to chime in. Has some nice pieces for sure. Very decent...

Then convert it to electric, if’n that’s the way you want to go. Buy a junker 6x6?

Be fun to manufacture your own tracks from steel. They could be nothing more than flat segments with steel tubing for the track connecting pins. Fashion up a welding jig, drop in the parts. Cheap flux welder… make a hundred or so track segments. EDIT: to prevent them from sliding off the...

Might have to tear it all down, Brr. I shudder to think what got inside the engine. Oh my goodness, how did you do it? Did you fix your recoil starter too or are you still winding the rope manually? Show us the inside of the cone air filter. I’m worried about your Tunisian dust 😬

Sorry Haru, Master Hack is speaking in country grammar, a bizarre dialect of the english language. Don’t know how your translation software might handle it. If you are fluent in “Hack-ese”, please disregard. :roflol: EDIT: and post more pics! Big ones, 5,000 megapixels x 5,000 megapixels ought...

Ouch. “Ain’t got no oil in it”. I bet they ship the kart with just enough oil to coat the innards, probably engine assembly lube, and it gets on the dipstick so it looks copacetic to the befuddled new owner. Seconded on pics and an engine autopsy would be fun. At least take it apart for...

I wanna see this. Keep us posted
