Welcome.
What you need to do is click on the box that says Go Advanced.
Next you'll look for a paperclip symbol. click on the arrow next to it. Upload from computer is what you want. Browse and select the file for the image.
Upload that, and when it's done you can close that window.
After that, just click on the paperclip itself, hit post and we'll be able to see the image.
Hopefully, you'll find that easier.

A good engine would be the predator 6.5hp engine harbor freight sells. Theyre super cheap at around $115 and people say theyre good engines. I was considering getting one but I made some extra money and got a different one. Heres a link to a page where you can choose.

Welcome to the forum. You have a nice kart there. You have a dead axle kart. This means that the engine only drives the one wheel. A live axle kart has the engine driving both wheels through a sprocket situated on an axle.
It all depends on how you gear your kart. Gearing has to do with the tooth counts on your clutch as well as your axle sprockets. You generally want to have at least 6 times the amount of teeth on the axle compared to your clutch. This will generally give you a good range between torque and speed.
Do you know if you have a centrifugal clutch or a torque converter on your engine. I cannot tell from the pic because there is a black cover over where the clutch should be. Could you take that cover off and take a pic for us? We can then tell you what you have, as well as what the best gearing for you would be.
What you should also do is give us the sprocket tooth counts that you have and the diameter of your tyres. From there we can either suggest different gearing, or advise you to just use what you have.
You kart looks like a Manco Dingo to me, but I am not 100% sure. Are there any stickers, labels, stamped serial numbers etc anywhere on the kart?

I know youve worked it all out now. But in case you were still wondering why the links werent working straight up like that, even with the IMG tags. It's because you were using the file location on your computer. The forum can only access it if its on the internet or if you upload it directly.
Cool kart too

If you open up that black cover inside will either be a torque convertor or a centrifugal clutch. A torque convertor looks like two pulleys connected by a belt. A clutch is a metal drum typically with a chain coming off of it. If youve got a clutch, count the number of teeth on the clutch and then the number of teeth on your axle sprocket. Then give us the count and how big your tires diameter is. If youve got a torque convertor then youve got many gear ratios.

Does it attempt to start and then stall? Not start at all? When you pull the rope do you feel resistance or not?

Might be a compression issue. Or your recoil is not hooked up for some reason.
