Small update. Found a 50mm axle locally , for around 65€ . Need to find bearings , bearing carriers that fit my frame and probably the disc / sprocket carrier aswell.

Also in talks with a local company that does powdercoating , so il see how that goes.

As for the engine , im still trying to find the right rebuild kit , but at least i found the proper fuel line and spark plug locally . Going to run a BR9EIX .

Br9eix

Tach for the Yamaha

 

[NewbCarter]

Small update , the carburetor on the Yamaha is junk , even after a rebuild ..

So i got two Tillotson carbs on the way , got them for 25€ , and a rebuild kit for 10€.

Along with that , axle parts are coming aswell.

 

[NewbCarter]

And pictures of carbs aswell.

The intake adapter on the engine will need modifications to plumb the crankcase pulse line to the pulse input on the carb , which unlike the Walbro unit , doesnt have an outside nipple for connection , rather a small hole on the intake side .

But sadly , i dont see this being finished any time soon.

College started ... so really slow progress .

Tillotson carbs on the way ... should arrive till weekend so i can work on the kart .

Probably going to get some thermo-paint in spray , black matte to re-paint the exhaust , going to clean it up and sandblast it before that.

Thinking of opening the engine back up ... when the tillotsons arrive i will need to modify the intake adapter + thinking of doing some porting to liven up the engine ... 17ish HP it makes stock isnt alot so every bit will help .

Thoo i dont want to screw it up so probably wont be opening it up , only modifying the intake adapter so that the carb can receive pumping pulses properly.

 

[NewbCarter]

Well.. gasket fits.

 

[NewbCarter]

Gonna find a way to modify that Walbro adapter so it has a pulse fitting that i can use for the Tillotson.

In the meantime , thinking of switching the complete ignition..

 

[NewbCarter]

Time for work

 

[NewbCarter]

Tilly !

 

[NewbCarter]

Need to brainstorm tomorrow.. see if i come up with a plan to mount the carb

 

[NewbCarter]

Seems like i did.

Nice

Of course , stuff doesnt magically happen .
So here is the procedure.

First off , used the gasket as a template to drill the pulse line hole in the adapter. Cool . Then notice i did it on the wrong side . Fill up the hole , sand it down so it can seal , repeat drilling on other side. Then notice the pulse hole is on the wrong side , and because of the bolt holding the adapter to the engine , it cant seal. So i cut a groove connecting to the pulse hole on the carb , and its mostly finished. The gasket covers almost all but a small part , which will need more attention , but im satisfied with the progress.
