Lower float level in carb.. change fuel filter…pressurize suction line for leaks…if external fuel pump, change the pump diaphram

Chuck, they are called handshakers, up in our neck of the woods.

Fast Freddy, we need more fun like this to keep ourselves invigorated. I took a quick stab at the hp increase and came up with .25 hp. Thanks for the response tovarich.

Billy, I have an expensive floor model Sunnen Hone with loads of smaller mandrels but nothing big enough to do Briggs World Formula. I ‘ve found those flex drill driven hones to be less accurate with bore roundness. These floor models get the bore perfect for me. just my take on it

[Jim Silverheels]

Billy, can you lend me some money to buy it? Must be 700 bucks now, yikes!

[Jim Silverheels]

Bill, I think the Y72-2625PF mandrel is the one. Thanks

[Jim Silverheels]

Giff, did you find lowering the cylinder .030 below legal to be more beneficial because the cans rev lower? thanks

[Jim Silverheels]

Thanks Giff

Coolie, schools always cut corners in the learning safari. Ask our resident guru TJ Koyen to meet you atta track for one on one instruction. The guys is a doer like a hampster on his treadwheel. Tell him I sent you for a discount also. chi wa wa

Xander,

We are bringing 2 cars , one with a Leopard and one with a X-30. We will use what kart is the quickest. Thanks for the response and see you mid January.

[Jim Silverheels]

Tim, thanks I owe you big time!

[Jim Silverheels]

Hi Tim, standard medium Kart Tech seat that comes with the kart.. thanks

[Jim Silverheels]

Tony, just did mine,,drill small hole in cap..paper click.. Comes like one of the three esses in the morning.

[Jim Silverheels]

Chad, that number is a little high. To be safe, check your squish that it is at least .025. Maybe the rebuilder dropped the jug with not enough gaskets, the gage is off, cut the jug top a tad, and do a cc test to see if it’s 11cc if you want to run legal.

Three different browsers and they say site takes too long to load…times out. Guess I’ll try a different puter somewhere else. Happy Holidays everyone.

[Jim Silverheels]

Fast Freddie, yer sounding more and more like a pro. Soon it will be “Ask Fast Freddie” along with TJ.  Now how’s that me boy?

[Jim Silverheels]

Fast Freddie, grats on yer championship. The forum family is happy for ya. Now, what shall we tackle next to better ourselves? 

[Jim Silverheels]

Fast Freddy, ever git that k-100 to put out psi on compression?

[Jim Silverheels]

I like the names of the engines. The people I know who have dog engines usually name their’s E BAY…  TEE HEE

Do you go to an axle change as a last resort when everything else fails to work? In other words axle choice isn’t a first choice for handling? thanks

[Jim Silverheels]

Tee

I wonder where they get those 30 hp readings from for the x30’s they advertise. I think Fast Freddy might be behind it!

 

[Jim Silverheels]

Tee,

with your connections can you ask around what the x30’s are putting out for hp on the dynos? My  dyno says 27.3 hp for my x30 and it runs about equal to others with the same engine. I know this is  the wrong forum for this topic, but with yer star power maybe I wont get chastised for it !   thanks    and chi wa wa

[Jim Silverheels]

Tee Jayer, as your first choice for more turn in, do you widen the front end, give it  more caster, or give it more ackerman please? thanks

[Jim Silverheels]

TJ, I think if the rear cones it’s because the axle is too soft, seat too low, rear too wide, or too soft in the rear preventing the kart from rotating over enough to the outside of the rear tires, correct? thanks

Fast Freddy, we might have to charge you an entrance fee to this topic! tee hee

[Jim Silverheels]

Yeppers, my take is the kart isn’t rotating enough. Raise seat, more castor,or my positive camber?
