I bought a used predator motor as HF was out of stock on these.... it had a few things done to it for a drift trike - I don't know what all those were, I do know it came with a clutch (bonus! lol) and an exhaust header. I was able to get it to idle but it backfires and surges at higher rpm - I would assume it needs a bigger jet, which I ordered.
Anywho - the fuel shut off attached to the carb for some reason does not work, seems odd to me as it looks untouched as far as modification, not sure there is much you can do to that carb anyways! I do plan to order a mikuni carb for at some point but for now I just want to get this thing going. I shut the fuel off though and the next came out to a puddle of gasoline. Any ideas why the fuel shut off wouldn't work?
Typical mower engines I've never seen one where with gravity flow it keeps going and going? That's also odd - anyways, any thoughts would be appreciated
