would gasoline work better?

If Kelly Wood of DIYGK said to do it, i guess the next 100 people that read this should do it too! Thank you Kelly Wood of DIYGK for your expert advice :thumbsup:

i shall save this moment for other people to see. suggested to me from a pro and experienced person, it must work. and the word "please" was used, so it must mean to spray water on a hot engine to protect it and me from blowing up.

Didn't know I had quite that reputation... but yes, actually, I am a pro (and an artist) and it takes way more than that to rattle me my friend.

You may post anything you like, including my posts. I don't mind at all. Anyone that reads this whole goofy thread will surely know, I'm just having fun, but soon enough, you'll implode... outta steam, yada yada.

There was a reason I posted that. It's so you'll blow the thing up and stop bothering us.

Plain & simple.

Reply again, attack again... I suspect there's about 10 people about to jump in your business.

And Gasoline would work, exactly the same result.

(gosh, for the viewing audience that may not know this thread is total crap, it is crap. Disregard any suggestions that any participating parties (not including the OP) make. It's a thread that started simple enough but then turned way south because the OP either doesn't listen to valid advice or is playing a game with us. Furthermore, he/she, is a person that possibly sits in their bedroom holding a spark plug. That's about all ya need to know.)

I once told a failure-to-launch kid "What happens next is up to you."

What's it gonna be? We all tried to help you and you just do dumb sh1t... you lie, you re-edit your posts and post fake stuff.

If that was your intent, to shake people up... you've done nothing... and here, at page 12, accomplished... nothing.

Oil Sensor Hole : Predator 212 cc

well i like my posts to be as perfect as i can get them So i edit like crazy.
And if you don't believe what i've done so be it. I'm gaining knowledge the way i want to and building a pretty cool thing. so whatever you believe..ehhh, i'm not going to change it. lol I just did this for a build log and to show my progress. if it Wows somebody ,cool. Thanks.

P.S.
For the oil sensor hole i used a 7/16" x 1 " bolt but i suggest a 7/16 x 3/4" if they make 'em.
Even though the AGK site said a 3/8" x 1 " bolt (which WILL be loose and leak oil) But it will be obvious when you try it. .

Valve Spring / Retainer snap rings

Something good for me to say:

i'm not trolling. so imagine if i did. i already won without even attempting.

So where do you think these pics and vids are coming from?

Valve Springs today! whooooh. Couldn't find a tutorial on how to replace Hemi springs. This will be fun and/or frustrating. or easier than i thought.

Edit: it was MUCH easier than i thought The snap-rings are real easy to pry off.

hmmmmm..
i guess i could make it a cool story by upgrading the intake springs and not the exhaust so it looks like a jet going down the road LOL :D (dang , forgot i dont have an exhaust pipe for that). i guess it'd look like a butane torch.
Just have to amp up the air/fuel mix so i don't lose power.

Started on my kart-lengthening project:
i'm not going to post the cuts unless people really want to see them but this is how it will look when welded unless i decide on a longer length:





I'm sure i'll need a disc brake when i'm done, had to remove the band brake anyways.

So somehow you will hang the axle off the back of the frame? Are you thinking swingarm? Should be lots of room for jackshafts back there.

When you do the cuts, stagger them so that they are not in line with each other. You then get some pipe that is the same outer diameter as the inner diameter of your frame. You want a sleeve to slide in there so that you have strength in the frame when you weld it back up. You drill holes in the frame so that you can weld the sleeve and frame together. You weld in the drill holes. Here is a pic of what i am talking about

I know this post has become taboo. Kinda a play around spot but this forum is still for helping others. :thumbsup: landuse
