Dumb? Yep, sounds like a dumb answer all right seeing how I don't have an oil sensor.... ..but oh my, Oh MY, it was not dumb!! ItSid, you were so close/right on target, scary!! You had me chasing down the kill wire and sure as S*** ! You were so right! It was pinched between the crank case...

Got the spark plug today, the RIGHT ONE!! I didn't know that you could run an engine with the wrong spark plug?!? Hope it didn't hurt the engine much Didn't help with the sputtering at all.

OK I'll unbolt the motor and see if I have some wiring under there that is shorting out. That's where it would be, right?

It's an older OHH-60 no fancy oil sensor that I know of

Sooooo, I think I'm supposed to have an RN4C Champion plug in there. The plug I pulled just now is a RC12YC ?!? The two don't cross reference. That's probably not good. Right?

It did have the red bulb. And does now too, I didn't want to mess up the linkage or anything, so its a clone of the original. Tho I wish I had adjusting screws and a choke too!

Yep, I sure did, just in case...

Hi, Its a well used engine but had good compression when I got it a few weeks ago. I replaced the carb with a Chinese knockoff. In the process I also replaced the fuel line and installed a fuel filter. The thing has been running great. Today was running good for 30 minutes or so, then as my...

Wow, that McMaster's has every fitting known to man! Cheap too Thanks for the tips

Do you use any lubrication on them?

I bet you're right, these things look better suited for the job compared to what I have, and it appears they are easier to get your hands on locally too. When I replace the other side, I'll check the thread direction and use this on at least one side of the cart. Great idea Slider, Thanks!

So what do you do? Slide the tie rod through it with a nut on either side? And if so, wouldn't it just wear away at the threads on the tie rod, making it nonadjustable? Edit: I did some more looking, you mean something like this.. see second picture

Pulled it off, sure enough you were right! 5/16" - RH thread It was a worn down, sloppy mess! Called the lawnmower repair shop, they freeze up without a part number, said they don't have it. Brought it down there, put it in their hands, and they head out back and find one :) This one was so...

Crap How can I tell?

Yep That's what I didn't want to hear ...but needed to. This is a 2007 \ 2008 ish kart I just got. Original belt and chain sill on it :\ Just got their replacements today and Wow was it running good ....for 15 minutes, till the ball join let go :(

ball joint There's got to be some way to rig it till I can get a replacement part. Someone has to have come up with a patch?!? Maybe?!? http://www.mfgsupply.com/gomini/goministeering/goministeeringball.html Any idea what I'm suppose to be measuring to get the right size?

steering knuckle Separated I was adjusting the tie rods a few weeks ago, and didn't put a wrench on the knuckle, big mistake. When I turned the nut on the tie rod, I ended up separating the tie rod off the knuckle. I popped it back on and everything seemed okay, till today. Now its falling...

That guy is great, donnyboys helped me fix more than one chainsaw :) ...but would have been one more part to buy for my old techumch carb that may or may not have fixed it :\

I can say For Sure the fuel in it was NOT good when i bought it. I asked the 82 year old grandfather who sold it to me about how long the gas had been in it and told him about the trouble with ethanol these days. He said it was just a year old and treated with the best... "a marine...

Hi, Had a 90 deg fitting coming out of my valve cover, to a vacuum hose that leads to the carb, key word HAD. I let the kids keep riding, seemed okay. Is that just re-burning fuel ( ie emissions), i saw vapor coming out of the valve cover... and i can plug both up or is there more to it ? Thanks!
