I am learning small engine repair. Which is cool. This kart will be painted a different color. Havent decided yet. Ill post pics of the inside of the engine later, but im happy with this baby.

whats sad is that carb is about the size of carb i had on my ford falcon (62) it was a little one barrel holley
im assuming about the clutch cuz my buddy has this little kart called a thunder kart and its about the same as that except its white its a little 5hp engine. the governator (thats what they called it when they showed me) controls the fuel flow when you press the pedal...only prob is after he did it, it ran fine for like 3 months then it would die when you took your foot off the gas, it ran like a bat out of hell for those 3 months though : ) |

At least your carabarator is clean in my dad's generator the inside actually rusted out and had to be replaced. If the engine is high quality it will probably start right up. Make sure the plug(s) are good as well.
