Did it try to take off before? If not, depending on how your throttle is setup you might have increased the tension on the cable which caused the throttle to be held partially open. If it did try to take off before, your idle adjustment could be set have been moved(probably not though because...

Happened to me once. What had happened was the cent. clutch's inner part had stripped it's key for the shaft.

I mostly just interested in it. Also I'm waiting a new clutch so I need an excuse to open my engine back up and keep away the boredom! Thanks for that info! Here's a really helpful link I found too, if anyone else is interested: http://underthehood.mahleclevite.com/?p=618

Is a hone needed or is some fine grit sandpaper usable?

How does one clearance a connecting rod? I've seen some talk over at 4cycle about clearance on a predator 212 rod being too tight and seizing up at high rpm. The consensus seems to be that the ideal clearance between the rod and crank is. 0025.

Yes I have the Dyno cam card. The gauges are coming Monday!

Thanks guys, much appreciated!

Ok, that's a relief! I have feeler gauges on the way from Mcmaster Carr!

Yes I did. Figured it would ok for now because the valve train has never been messed with. On a scale of 1-10, how bad did I screw up? I'll put in a master link then.

If the compression release is the mechanism with the springs on the cam then this cam did have it. I put the cam in myself. Slid the old one out and put the new in. Everything cleared. I've started it a few times and you're right it did get easier. I'll check the valve lash once I get a set of...

That's thing. My chain doesn't have a master link. Guess I'm going to have to get a chain breaker?

So I made a few changes to my cart. The one that is giving me trouble is switching from a 64t to 54t sprocket. I did not think it through but when I put it on the chain is now too long. Well I got around that problem by using an idler pulley that's on my kart. Problem is this pulley has a loose...

The frame says Murray on it, but I'm not sure of the model number. Nodroz, which engine did you use?

What's a better bike motor for the frame then(something with a transmission)? Oh and it has a roll cage now if that matters.

Well I dunno about this then. I don't wanna get in over my head with no way out. I think I could do it, but money is the thing holding me back. This teenager is broke. Yeah, that picture is an old one when I first got started. Tires, kill switch, clutch, etc. have all been updated and added.

Figured as much. I've been doing a little bit of research and 77hp is a lot for a go kart. I'm guessing strengthening the frame involves a lot of welding?

Well I just saw a CL ad for a '80 CB750K motor(and bike if I want it). I want to put it on the frame below. Is there anything I need to know beforehand(a guide to hooking it up if there is one)? Any warnings? I've contacted the guy and he says that he bought it as a parts bike(off the frame)...

Will BSP header pipes work on a Predator? ETA:http://www.nrracing.com/product-p/dyno-cl1-112.htm Found this cam. Is this cam designed for 6000rpm and above or 6000rpm max?

I still care for the motor. I don't abuse it just use it. So on the list is air intake and exhaust.

A bike engine requires fab work to get it mounted and all sorted out right? I'm using a Murray yard kart so I didn't think this would be a possibility. I would love to have a shifter kart, but alas...I cannot weld or machine parts. I could be careful with it, but hey where's the fun in that...
