new to karts quick question

[rebelbull]

Ok i got a go kart today for 40 dollars doesnt look to awful bad
My question is on one of the slick wheels it has a drive sprocket
on the five horse briggs engine it has a v belt clutch
obviously you cant hook it up to the drive sprocket what is the pully called that hooks onto the axle or whatever? i dont have it and cant find one

also how can i test the clutch to be good before i buy a pulley for the axle

sorry no pix of engine this is the pic the guy sent to me before i went and picked it up off of craigs list

anyone know about what year or whatever it may be?

thanks alot

You can check the clutch for basic operation by starting the engine and see if the clutch engages when idleing which it shouldn't and then rev the engine to see if the clutch engages which it should.
