How fast is that thing scooting at?

Looks pretty fast! The stalling is because your main jet is too lean. Find a numbered bit that fits the main pretty good and go up a size. Tell me your stock main jet size first though. I also noticed on the stand when your motor stalled and when you shut it off your drivetrain and wheels locks up suddenly. Howecome your wheels dont keep spinning to a slow stop?

got boost? :)
dont have idea of the spee but for a shopping cart its pretty fast ... would like faster though
is the main jet the copper thing in the center of the carby? so basically it it'st getting enough fuel... hehehe i like where this is going...
and yeah the brake is rubbing on the disc thats why it stopped suddently...the first time i started it with the idle screw completely off it was running too fast, so i actually had to file down the plunger stopper so it can close more... is enlarging the main jet will cause idle problem?

The main jet is machined from Brass. Pull your carb and bowl off and get a picture. I will leed you from there.

okok its the little hexagonal head screw with a hole in it, so basically you want me to enlarge it right? wont that ****up my idle?

It would be better to buy some jets to play with so you don't overbore one too badly and have to braze it and re drill it. Also for the idle the needle has a clippy on it under the spring hold down. You can raise or lower the needle for more or less fuel.

The main jet only controls your 3/4-WOT throttle fuel.

Have you thought of using a restriction plate?

won the smart turbo for 101$ shipped... weee! i will re-do the oil pump setup as the drill pump is currently spraying oil by the shaft at 20 psi LOL will probably also re-do the oil tank and header... i got two nice brass procon rotary vanes pumps in here but they spin the other way than the engine ****! i would have liked to use them like the old setup...(lovejoy coupler)
i'll keep you guys updated!

You know, I was thinking if you put a restrictor plate after the carb it might help the turbo spool up faster.
