@BrownStainRacing @Denny Thanks for the input, links and parts advice. I bought the best reviewed belt on Amazon, but I’ll hunt down a Comet or Bando if they make a difference. Researching it more I think my flyweight assembly is worn out. I can pull the weights open my hand and the slide...

First test drive complete! My son took 1 lap around the block and came back with an ear to ear grin! And all the neighborhood kids came running over to check it out! New problem is the torque converter is dragging/engaged all the time. Even just pull starting the motor causes the cart to drive...

Howdy guys and gals. New member here, but I’ve been creeping for several weeks to learn about a ’00 Yerf Dog my kids and I are working to restore as their first vehicle project. You have an informative, helpful and welcoming forum and I’m glad to be part of!
