Picking up a FREE Go Kart! The Perfect Quick Restore Candidate!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Hey Guys, Migs Here! In today’s video, I am going to pick up a free go kart, and begin the efforts of trying to get it running and driving for the first time in 16 years! We were able to find the engine problems that make this engine not run. It could be the perfect candidate for an engine swap! Thanks for Watching!

    Let me know what you think the fate of this go kart should be! As you can tell from the title, I’m leaning more to the side of a quick one day restoration and engine swap to get it running and driving once again, then sell it to fund a bigger kart with suspension already to become a candidate for the mini side by side build, but I want to hear your input! 👍🏻

    If you want a side by side, go look for a Roketa, BMS, Joyner 250cc frame. They're small enough to slap a predator 420cc on it and rip or they're big enough to do a full build like a snowmobile engine. They also usually have front disk brakes and A-arms

    Hey bud, with the up most respect, I just want to say, anytime you see build up like that in the breather/carb man just pull it apart, dont risk sucking that grap into it, and when it looks that bad, you deff know the intake, carb, and tank is going be trashed! Honestly you have several engines laying around, just put one them on and go bud, suspension swap is gong cost more than buying a used frame that's already set up. Either way, you got a hell of a deal. Also if the cyl and rings look good, that motor can be running in about hour, good luck bud!!! You remind me of my younger self with go karts!

    Love your channel. Can you or any of you subscribers advise me if I was going to buy a used kart for my yard or end street mainly yard what kart would you suggest I look at getting. My plans were to purchase a frame and build from there I may go a stage 1 or 2 on a predator motor. Nothing major just a little more that the standard 6.5 hp provided by the predator. I have some mechanical experience but will learn everything probably off you tube from great people like yourself. I have checked Ebay and FB but most everything I am seeing is geared to racing competitively. Basically I would like a cart similar to the Honda Odyssey. That look at least. They are rare and hard to find. Any suggestions? I see some retailers that sell karts. Is there a place that sells used or just kart frames? Thanks
