Thanks for your time and information was very helpful. Last year I installed a 670cc in a lifted golf cart and found out that it was designed for stationary type of set up(non-pressurized oil system). I'm doing another custom cart but using the 708cc that has a pressurized oil system. The 708cc can keep oil to the important parts while bouncing around. The 670cc every so often experienced performance loss and heating issues when bouncing down the trails. Again thanks for the video. Basically wanted to pass info along and see if you had experienced oil starvation issues?

[@americanboathead5390]

That is good to know!!! I figured it had some pressure but it must be the flinger type like the smaller engines. I still have yet to use mine for more than 5 minutes so your advice is awesome!!

My Predator 670 is not running due to a definite shutoff valve solenoid under the carb bowl that is not working. I think it has also caused my engine to shut off in the past.

I have to re crimp the wire every time to start it.. after it sets over night, it will not start again, no matter what , until i recrimp the wire all over again. Do u know what is going on?! And do i have to have a diode in the wire anywhere cauae there isn't one . Previous owner has already spliced into this one wire in a few places to join wire. I would just buy the whole new wire set up but they discontinued it. Dang i really need help. I have 11 acres to mow and i can not get this wire situation under control.

[@americanboathead5390]

Thats really weird! You shouldnt need a diode. I messed up and thought mine belonged there. The rectifier performs that function. As far as the coil wire, i dont know exactly what you are saying. Sometimes if a current sparks through a connection, it stops conducting. Maybe solder could help?

[@americanboathead5390]

It could also be the kill switch. Maybe you can cut the wire off the switch and touch it to ground to turn it off or turn gas off.

[@sidduced1972]

Can you explain how you wired the kill switch? Im trying to kill mine with a 5 pin rocker

[@americanboathead5390]

You basically need to find a way to stop the spark plug from firing. The easiest way is to ground out the coil (the pack at the other end of the spark plug wire.) There is usually a black wire connected to the coil. Then connect a wire from your switch to metal ground. Then find out which pins make it run or stop running. Maybe just use a spark plug so you dont have an engine that wont turn off. You can also hook a zip tie for pulling the wire off the spark plug while running to kill it.

[@ronaldhotboy]

Just now seeing this after 8 months!

[@marcellucassen8033]

@@americanboathead5390 sorry at the kill wires go

[@americanboathead5390]

If you pull the spark plug ,put it in wire boot and touch it to metal there should be a spark when you crank it. If there is spark and it still doesnt run, then you arent getting fuel

[@user-dq8cs9iu1t]

If i unplug the coils it will run so don't know if diode is bad thanks where the kill wires go are gounded if unplug

It's important to note the rectifier has the diode built into it. Took a lot of research to figure that one out. Adding another one is redundant.

[@americanboathead5390]

Really? I wonder why it's there... maybe it is hooked up wrong?

[@tonymugno]

I'm also going to try doing away with the fuel solenoid tomorrow since mine apparently isn't working anyhow. I'll keep you posted

[@tonymugno]

@@americanboathead5390 No idea. I have a couple of these engines and none have the diode. I'll post the rectifier part number later to compare with yours.

[@tonymugno]

Took out the fuel solenoid and I'm going to fire it up in a little while. I pulled it out took out the spring and the plunger then screwed it back in. It pretty much sucked because I had to tear the engine apart to get to it. I took a picture of it for reference if you want a copy. Sorry it took so long to respond but life got in my way.

[@tonymugno]

Oh yeah. I would never have figured the solenoid issue if it weren't for your video. Can't thank you enough!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really miss working on my(5 years into the build) jet boat. But a year ago my neighbors tree destroyed my garage and put holes in my boat. Insurance is screwing me and only paying out half of what it’s going to cost to rebuild. Learn from my mistake, make sure you policy covers 100% rebuild of out buildings.

[@americanboathead5390]

That's tough! I've had the same thing happen to my jeep Cherokee! Is the engine and pump still good?

[@MrB337yla]

Can we get an update, I look forward to your new videos!
