Hey @CarsandCameras - You guys want to know how I significantly improved the drag racing times of my kart? **WARNING: This is an IRREVERSIBLE MODIFICATION!** I removed the centrifugal clutch from the engine and modified it as follows: (1) Took the clutch drum off of the assembly via the snap ring. (IMPORTANT: Mark the face of the snap ring with a Sharpie and DO NOT flip the snap ring over when you reassemble the unit!) (2) Carefully removed the spring that encircles the weights. (Noting the orientation of the weights for reassembly.) (3) Cut off 6 - 10 coils off the length of the spring and slightly bent the new 'last coil' to form a new hook. (4) Reassembled the spring onto the weights. (5) Placed a *tiny* film of grease on the drum bearing, reassembled the clutch and reinstalled it on the kart. (6) Did a test run and rinsed & repeated as needed. (Sneak up on the optimal spring length because if you cut it too short, you cannot make it longer again.) This allows a higher engine 'stall speed' which is essentially giving you a MUCH more powerful launch. The same effect can be achieved by lightening the weights of the clutch but then *the balance of the rotating assembly* will come into play and damage the clutch or engine or both can occur. Shortening the spring, and effectively making it "stronger", is the most practical way to do this modification.

Hi Guys, great info. I'm a Briggs guy and what I have found and what I do is for the 5 HP Briggs, i.e. go kart engines. Is to shave off the decompression bump on the cam. This increases the sweep area of the cylinder. This increases HP by about 20%. In some engines you can just shave the end of that valve stem.

I see all negative comments about the build quality of Tecumsehs... I had a lawn mower with a tecumseh engine that ran like a champ for 23 years. Throttle cable broken, rusted chassis, the last years ran without air filter... never a problem and never cleaned once the carburetor. After 23 years the handlebar snapped in half and the chassis was all junk. But the motor was still running perfectly! I had some fun throwing gravel in the crankcase and finally the camshaft snapped.

Careful with that PB blaster or whatever nut breaker you were using to lubricate the steering, it is not meant as a lubricant and will only work for a short time before drying out. You want to use actual oil or grease or lubricant of some kind, not a solvent based nut breaker like PB or WD40.

True enough, though if it was binding because it was rusted/crudded up then a shot of PB Blaster will loosen the crud and free it up.
@dolfinoff4925
@dolfinoff4925 6 жыл бұрын
Spraying WD40 on a frozen linkage joint is no better than pouring a Bud Light on it. That's not WD's purpose at all. PB Blaster will do a fair job of removing the crud and making the joint free, as Butch says. But then a proper aerosol grease (like a motorcycle chain lube) will keep it clean happy for a long time.

MAN !! What A Rush!!! I didn't feel bad about the vette, due to his dumb ass was who left brakes unhooked.😏it left a really wide skid from tire to tire, I knew he later buffed out.I was only 11 yrs old at the time but that day I got the need, the need for speed🤦🏼‍♂️😂😆🏎💨...

On honda and predator small engines, if you bypass the governor, you have to split the case open and remove the governor components inside the engine or it will cut out like this. Only recommendation I might add if you are gonna remove the governor is to swap the stock valve springs out with stiffer ones so that you dont overrev the engine

Basics inspection. True with any kind of small engine. Check the easy stuff. Put fresh gas in. Clean out the old gas. Dump the carb bowl out. Clean the spark plug(s) Check air filter. Then start it up with a correct oil level. That's before mods. Patience is rewarding. When your knees and back ache all the time, you get smarter. Pulling that rope once should be enough. Be glad if you're not too big and heavy. Your toys have to be bigger and more expensive.

Growing up i had a gokart similar with a 5hp Tecumseh engine. I think i’ve had two or three different 5hp Tecumseh engines and I never liked them. Always swapped them out with a Briggs. The last gokart I “built” and sold had a 212cc Predator with some mods. I was a bigger gokart than shown in this video, live rear axle, CVT, and IFS. Last one I purchased was a few years ago…250cc water cooled Kandi buggy. Just rebuilt the engine a few months back. Currently waiting for summer to bed line the entire frame

Good job Jon you finally said Predators Honda clones and other. I tell people Predator engine’s aren’t Honda clones from experience and validation from ARC Racing. I built a Predator 212cc Hemi and unlike the GX200cc the wrist pin on a Predator is larger the camshaft on a GX200 wobbles when put in a Predator block as for other variables. The Coleman ct200U 196cc is a Honda GX200 clone as parts are interchangeable. ARC Racing has a video to validate this and said Predator engine is made by Predator for Harbor Freight. They say people order high performance mods for their Predator engines but say Honda clone when they should be saying Predator. You guys need to let people know Predator is not from old Honda castings!

Mower Innovations Or install a Predator/ Honda and mod away. Another option: just get the Briggs 206cc racing kart engine; it is built for racing already and doesn’t need to be modded. Not enough power? Switch to the world formula version for 18 hp (:

Had one of those motors on a very old kart from Tractor Supply. If memory serves me there is a very complex throttle linkage with springs. It would allow the throttle to go wide open but once it got to operating speed it would back off. My simple fix was attaching a string to the carb and making sure the kill switch worked.

Tecumseh actually pronounces it the way they do. I dont pronounce it like that either because it sounds ridiculous to me but im pretty sure it is correct. There is an old tecumseh technician video on youtube and thats how they say it.

That Tecumseh engine is probably thinking the same thing about you. "That mechanic sucks, what an incompetent guy! Hopefully he sells me, then I will likely get into better hands" Gotta say, couldn´t agree more... you´re probably better off using a cheap predator, that has the value as an engine as you have as a mechanic.

Did y'all ever take the original carb off and actually clean out all if the circuits and actually clean out the tank? I would of thought that after y'all took off the bowl twice and especially saw water in there it would've been a no brainer to flush it out and use fresh gas. Y'all probably did, I'm just curious because y'all never mentioned if you did in the video.

Project Suggestion: If you want to do before & after or side by side comparisons how about building your own little gocart & minibike dyno. It doesn't have to give exact HP & Torque measurements; you could even create your own C&C scales. But it would take the human factor out of comparisons.
