I need some input, advice, and help on how to hook up a car starter to some kind of sprocket for use in a go-kart. I have a starter and have figured out how to wire it up to run in forward or reverse. I can figure out how to mount it to the kart. But I don't understand how to hook up a sprocket onto the output shaft so that I can run a chain or belt to the axle. Do I have to put a flywheel on the kart and hook a sprocket to that? Do I need to machine something?
I've read through all of the threads in the Electric Projects section relating to powering a kart with a car starter. The only thing that I have found that may help me is the link to the site that shows you how to build your own electric bar stool, and that just confuses me. Can anyone give me some ideas, or help on how to rig this up. Or if any of you have built one of these electric cars, please post some pictures of it. Thanks!
