    GN-220 7.8hp rebuilding old go kart

    Nope never saw it. Saw animal farm based off of Orwells book. That was a good movie. but that was in history class in 11th grade. So I used a wheel puller on the wheel. Would not budge. Tried heating it too... nothing. looks to be pretty bad shape for this one.:ack2:

    Well my brother wants to build a 6.5 hp motor chopper now so he went off and got a stingray chopper and has started modifying it already, we bought the 6.5hp motor together. I wanted to finish building the go kart. so we are playing tug of war. The rear tires dont have 4 smaller bolts through...

    This is why parents need to pay attention to what teachers are teaching their kids in school!!! and you thought you would never use that history stuff again about pearl harbor being bombed but here we are on the go kart forum talking about it. We were supplying the allied powers with war...

    Just gotta get that dang wheel off!!! Any ideas how to get it off?? it is stuck on there good. I put some (a lot) of WD-40 on it to lubricate it before pulling on it. It is really rusted on there tight.

    What I mean is it wont turn at all. Even with the pull cord. I dont know if WD-40 would help that or not.

    I knew nothing about engines before I started this and am learning a lot. The flywheel on the briggs is seized up. Any Ideas on how to get it free?

    GN-220 7.8hp rebuilding old go kart

    That sounds like a good idea. My dad told me to get a die but said it was going to be expensive. My brother and I had found a chopper bike for about $50 bucks and had just about all the pieces to build that into a motor bike. I know he really wanted to do that. So we may just do that, but dont...

    GN-220 7.8hp rebuilding old go kart

    I guess it doesnt really matter now. My brother after we bought the 6.5 hp engine we got it home and were swapping out the tires and rims for another set we had because the ones on the cart were old and dry rotted and had a hole in them. Any way, one came off with a few shots of WD-40 but the...

    GN-220 7.8hp rebuilding old go kart

    Not really sure what is wrong with the cord. It wont pull. I took it off and the spring is worn out so it does have some trouble retracting, but thats not the main problem. the main problem is that it just wont pull.

    GN-220 7.8hp rebuilding old go kart

    I dont think they will fit. I will get pics and show the comparison but the Honda (or honda replica) carb is on with four large screws and widely spaced. the briggs has a channel (i dunno what to call it) bolted onto the engine It is tightly arranged pattern.

    Ouch! The clutch would have to go on further than where the threads are.

    GN-220 7.8hp rebuilding old go kart

    I looked up the serial/model on the briggs and I couldnt find pull up one on their website. It is a MANCO GoKart that has a serial number on it that may bring up something I can try. Any idea on how to get that gas cap off? Or how would I use the generator gas tank? (its gravity fed while the...
