Installing an Electric Start on a Predator 212cc *NON-HEMI* || Drift Trike Part 10

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

PLEASE SEE PINNED COMMENT FAQ BEFORE ASKING FURTHER QUESTIONS WHEN WATCHING THIS VIDEO
Back in December of 2019, on Christmas Day, I opened up one of my presents of this electric start kit that is compatible with the Predator 212cc engine. I've been eager to get one of these for some time, and in today's video, we will be looking at the entire process on how to install and wire the kit.
In case anyone asks WHERE I would have gotten it, had I not gotten it for Christmas, I google-searched "Predator 212 electric start kit", and there are links for Amazon and Ebay, it's the Electric Start kit for the Honda GX 190/200. Below are some links (not affiliated)

For HEMI www.vpowerequipment.com/preda...
I have also constructed a PDF manual on what I will be doing in today's video! Please ever so freely use this to aid you in your installation!

If you have a different engine, it' is high chances that it will, but assembly will be different. Otherwise: *No*. *Will this work for a HEMI Predator 212* Refer to the question above, BUT, there are kits out there made for a hemi. *What [sized] battery should I use?* This kit is wired for 12 volts, and the starter box comes with a 10amp fuse. I currently run a 12v 8.5aH battery and it starts just fine. *Is a battery needed?* If you don't want the electric start, no. *Does the coil(s) charge the battery?* Yes. Idle is at about 12.5 volts. Under running RPM's in a governed 212 it's >= 13V For any future questions, you are free to join my discord here and ask them! discord.gg/yy9wvHD

    *IMPORTANT: It would be highly recommended to use a thread locker on the internal bolts for the coil and solenoid.* Unfortunately, after doing a ride for an hour, one of the bolts holding the starter loosened and ejected out of the engine, causing the cast aluminum piece to crack, and misaligned the gears when starting. Pull starting is okay, but not electric start. The bolts were tightened snug shown in the video. PS. *THANK YOU FOR 70,000 VIEWS. LETS GET TO 100,000???* Much love!

    @@NiTecIndustries Ok I went over it last night. I double check the flywheel is as far in as possible. The gear on the starter is not engaging with the gear of the flywheel until you turn the key...then it pops out and engaged the flywheel gear and pop back when you release the key. Kinda makes sense because you wouldn't want the starter gear to keep spinning when the engine is running...right? I checked the spacing of my ignition coil and looks like one end is slightly out too far so I readjusted it to proper spacing of a business card thickness...guess what it seems to start easier now! Also on the side note..I'm not sure what size wire for the battery I supposed to use but I justr use some spare wire I have in the garage...I think maybe 12 gauge? Is that thick enough wire to connect to the battery and starter?

    Mary H The ignition coil having that gap then meant the spark plug wasn’t getting the proper spark in the combustion chamber-causing the poor starting quality. Your electricals are working just fine. 14 gauge would be better wire. I don’t recall if it’s either 12 or 16 gauge that’s thicker, but 14 is common.

    For the kit it comes with a starter motor that "in theory" didn't need much to start it. I first used a 12V 5 aH 70 CCA battery and it would start on a full charge, but nothing more beyond that. I had to replace the starter motor after the cast aluminum chipped on the mounting holes. After doing that, the battery was weak and could not start. I would recommend using a battery that is *12V, 8aH, 120CCA*. Wouldn't want to get a battery that would blow the 10-Amp fuse on the switch box. As far as wiring goes I either have 14 or 16 gauge wire.

    If I am understanding this correctly, you are still wanting to do a pull start, but have a key-switch at the front of your project? If that is the case, you only need a two-wire setup. I have done this with a key toggle switch in the episode where I install the drum brake. At the beginning of the video, I showed off how I did it. The hot replaces the lead wire coming from the factory switch, and the ground from the switch is grounded to the frame. Hope this helps.

    The wire coming from the charging coils does not need to connect to the battery; it is its own power source. The switch box from this kit provides a voltage regulator via the one way diode. Perhaps when you ground the light down to the frame, and the battery grounds to the frame, then it will charge? But you don't need a regulator I dont think.

    AUSTIN ROBERTS No need to pull the cylinder head off. Check the valve cover. If it’s a shiny zinc, non-hemi. If it’s a cast iron, and it’s square with beveled edges, it’s a hemi. I also believe that hemi’s have tapered shaft, and therefore won’t be compatible with the flywheel provided in the kit.

    Great question! Despite that I am not running with a Torque-A-Verter, but I went outside just now to check. It looks like the starter's face facing the shaft is coincident with the clutch side of the engine block. It looks like it does protrude past just by a cm or two, so it is possible you will have to do some trimming on your CVT plate.

    I would assume too that it depends on which torque-a-verter you have depending on how built your engine is. Since only said CVTs are rated for X amounts of horsepower. Also assuming too the orientation of the assembly depending if your engine is behind or in front of the axle.
