Hi guys, new to this forum. Having read many of the post, I can see there are a lot of very knowledgeable members here. Looking for help understanding my Comet torque converter. It’s a new Series 40 mounted on a GX390 motor. Only mods are a free flowing air cleaner and a less restrictive exhaust. The factory says that the drive clutch engages at 1600 rpm. That’s a little high for my application. My question is how to adjust the clutch so that is engages at a lower rpm. The drive clutch has a large nut that’s welded to the outer cover. If I grind down the weld and remove the cover, is there any adjustment that can be performed to archive my objective. I have set the motor so that there is very little play before the clutch engages the belt, but that didn’t help much. I don’t know what this motor idles at, but it takes a fair amount of throttle to get the cart moving. Cart runs good, plenty of power, but I want to move along at a slower pace without all the noise generated by the high rpm’s. Have raised the gearing, but that only made matters worse. Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks Cyclebender

Thanks for the link. Your right, from what it said, 1600 rpm is the lowest I can expect.
