from running rich? It runs fine when it’s set half way between “start” and “run”., what could this mean. If you want to make whatever you have your engine connected to (I’m assuming mini bike or go kart) go faster while maintaining the same maximum governed RPM, you only have two options. If it all checks out, then revisit your valvetrain and camshaft. Got a stock Predator 212 non-hemi, governor still installed. If the clutch has play in it and you cant secure it with a set screw, then you need to get a spacer to push up against the clutch, then a flat washer against the spacer, then the bolt to secure it all to the engine shaft. low oil sensor is still connected. If it seems ok, go down to an autoparts store like oreiley or autozone and buy a can of carb cleaner (or starting fluid) spray a tiny squirt down the hole that the air filter covered. I guess you could buy from someone who took it out, but no. I don’t know anything about cars so I don’t have a lot of info. The best thing to do would be to have a Chevy dealership take a look at your truck to see if they can identify the problem and fix it while it is still under warranty. Usually noises while idling come from a vacuum leak, belts or bad bearings in engine accessories. Hi! Turn the fuel lever on, and/or clean the tank, fuel line, and carburetor. If you do even approach those speeds, you will likely die from the crash as the db30 has a very narrow base. There is no way to damage your power steering pump by turning your wheels too tight and as long as your car is in good shape, you shouldnât be able to damage the steering rack either. It don’t leak. cheetah, bully) instead of a centrifugal clutch, and set engagement at peak HP rpms. I backed out of my driveway put the car into drive got about 2 feet then it just quit moving. It continues when I drive, but the sound quiets down as decelerate. Do you have to remove governor to install mods. If you are racing your go kart, the difference between a standard centrifugal clutch (maxtoqrque etc) and a disc clutch (noram cheetah, bully) is night and day, but some classes may not allow them. It sounds like there is a bent intake valve.  In all belt driven power steering systems, the pump is the same. What mod can I do and still let it apear stock. It won’t rev up, sputters, dies, etc. The intake/exhaust/jetting will allow the kart to run (combined with other modifications) to an extremely high rpm (we got a kart with just the intake/exhaust/jetting to hit 60 mph). Some of the repairs may even be free of charge to you. if the parts you’re seeking to exchange are different in size, you can bore out the cylinder, or place a metal sleeve in the cylinder to compensate for the discrepancy. Also, the sound will only happen when the car has stopped for more than 2 hours. its probably not the valve springs. I’ve seen a guy on YouTube who uses 2 of them on his Lasair with no problems so I’m confident it can be done. I’m beginning to think my valve lash is not set correctly perhaps and this may cause the kickback. This is a street cart. I installed the stage 1 performance kit. I also noticed that when starting my car it takes about 2 seconds longer to turn over. It happened since i just got my oil changed. From your description, it sounds like you have a bad wheel bearing. A common mistake is not tightening the flywheel nut, which causes the flywheel key to shear off. Can I change spring tension on linkage to achieve that? I have a 2004Honda CRV. The motor appears virtually like new STILL…. id be worried abt valve keeper failing with “too much” spring?? You absolutely cannot just bolt it all together and hope it works out. Could be any number of things but I bet you didn’t torque the flywheel down to 65 ft lbs, and you sheared the timing key. I looked for any visible damage and did not see and. i went from a 50 to a 60 tooth rear sprocket! Thanks! Mod cams on 212 pre. I bought what was advertised as a “performance” rod? It is possible that your problems lies with the bearings in the pump causing the whining youâre hearing and as they warm up they quite down. If it rotates freely, then put your plug back in. Put the stock head gasket back in and it had plenty of compression. I am planning on getting the intake, exhaust, and jet. Awesome stuff, thank you much for that info. Sounds like you have the sproket type clutch instead of a torque converter. I’ve had the air pressure checked and it was fine. Jet size? The injector puller threads onto slide hammers with 5/8"-18 thread, including most OTC slide hammers. My husband just replaced the thermostat but now while accelerating the van makes a whining and almost grinding sound. It does sound like your power steering pump is causing the problem since it only happens when you are turning left or right. Would I have fuel delivery issues and, if so, how could I correct it? And has serious kickback. Will cost $100-$350 depending on quality of clutch but they will all work. This is further complicated with TIMING, and clearance with the head being milled… Here is what CAN go wrong 1) higher valve lift may cause springs to bind – you don’t necessarily need super heavy springs, just springs that are good enough for your target RPM, springs rob hp, but let you rev higher. * sry about writing this as a reply, I couldn’t figure out how to comment. I can start up the engine with the choke on, but when the choke is on it revs very high which seems to be normal with the videos that I watched, but don’t want to go flying when starting it up on the ground if there’s any way to fix that. I have a 212cc engine and I think I lost power to my engine once I added a intake my go cart wants to turn off for some reason so I have to accelerate it so it won’t turn off on me. It may be due to a worn out belt or belt tensioner. I purchased a new one and broke it in. Also, could be valve lash. Btw, the reason it won’t go any higher is because you’re floating the valves….basically, the springs are battling so much force that they can’t close the valves which is why you get stronger springs. Making the hole in the jet larger will allow more fuel to enter the combustion chamber, preventing a ‘lean’ condition that overheats and destroys engines when they have the governor removed. If your vehicle is equipped with electric fans you could also check to make sure there is nothing in the blades and the motors arenât worn. Maybe out of all the list of comments this one’s already been answered but it’s a long list of comments to go through thank you. The question you should ask yourself is this, what is the purpose of the jet? When you add more air and fuel into an engine, you get more torque and horsepower, which is the cheapest bang for your buck. Only problem I have is it is dumping fuel out of the carb. I have an automatic transmission so it shifts on its own and does so very nicely. It is odd that your vehicle continued making the sound after you replaced the pump. Now every two days I have to add fluid but no sign of a leak that I’ve noticed.. I removed the nail and it spun and started right up. I hope that helps. As stock I get 22-25mph and with the above modification would expect/hope to get near 30mph.  I recently had this problem myself in my Dodge truck and decided to put BlueDevil to the test. The head dowels might not. You always ALWAYS adjust valve lash just past top dead center on the compression stroke. Do I have to tap a hole and put a spout on there to run the line? It’s a brand new cateburetor, rejetted. thats a loaded question. The Squeaking is most likely coming from your belt and a new belt and new belt tensioner would definitely have the tension very high. I have a predator on my go kart and everytime i drift the motor dies. As the bubbles come out be sure to add fluid to the reservoir so it doesn’t get low. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iS7vJFxuD8&feature=youtu.be. Nothing I can think of. It could be the power steering fluid low. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciatted. I had my torque converter drive clutch on my 212 come apart on my leg sending parts flying everywhere I started researching a replacement and found it was cheaper to buy a 40 series with a 3/4″ to 1″ shaft and key kit than the 30. Kinda like in one of those Aamco commericals actually. So if you have spark, you need to check air. Might want to call the place you got your clutch from. there is a fnr gearbox specifically made for a 8 hp max engine. i have a 01 dodge stratus and its making a noise under the hood people are telling me its the ac compressor but im not sure i had my belt changed a few weeks ago and it still makes the noise and my power steering also don’t work my car steering moves fine but its not taking in the power fluid any ideas on what may be wrong.? It sounds like your serpentine belt is causing the squealing. What should I do? So what would you recommend to do with them? If you cant unstick the jet, please get the right size flathead screwdriver to do this with. Any advice? You would need to test it on a dyno. BlueDevil Transmission Sealer will seal your transmission leak, and then you can top it off with the recommended transmission fluid. It can squeal/whine for various reasons such as: the belts tension is too loose or tight, fluid has leaked onto the belt, or it may simply need replaced. They replaced the tensioner belt (which BTW had already been replaced in 2011 by them grrr). The sound is highly annoying and I do not come from a background of mechanics. I an no expert, but I know the reason that I have mine on a 15 degree angle is so the intake upgraded filter clears the rear wheel. If you have any under drive pulleys, or skipped any accessories, you will need shorter belt than stock. Then elsewhere read I should pull slow up to beginning of compression stroke then pull hard. Then, it went all quiet. What i believe your issue is in an incompatibility between the ignition system and your flywheel, or at the very least your timing is very far off for some reason. Sometimes when i stop the noise will come back but not as loud and i would have to do the same procedure to get rid of the noise. So I just went to go power sports to buy the 60 tooth sprocket but there out of stock and I’m planing to get the 54 tooth steel sprocket for a 420 chain. Im looking for a old bell style clutch with atleast a 4500 rpm stall. I would hit the gas and it would sputter and not get any fuel or combustion but when i let off it idles fine. Also pilot jet etc. And are the 18lb springs enough? Can you install a longer plug for higher compression? I want this thing to be pretty fast but I’m nervous to remove the governor. The car is barely 30,000 miles.  For a more in-depth procedure for diagnosing where your suspension problems are, check out our article about suspension noise. I have a go kart (one seater) with a stock predator 212cc. Hey y’all, I’ve been working these predators and gx160/200s on almost everything I can the needs it! I have a 6.5 predator motor on my mini bike i took out govenor and the plastic gears shredded inside the motor and it started dying out n not going so i bought a new motor and took out all parts to the governor completly out then after driving it full out it started dyeing out at top speed on this one too then i read up n said i needed 18# springs to keep it from floating so i did that but its now throwing white smoke from the tail pipe n still at top speed cutting out on me n then dyes completely what do i do or whats am i not doing?? Same top speed though (33-35 mph). Here is a quick overview of what I recommend doing first. Please!! You likely have sheared your key or seariously damaged the key and keyway in the crank and flywheel itself. The air bubbles could have gotten in from a variety of places but you should be able to remove them easily. If itâs cracked, worn or glazed in any area it may be time to replace it. Any ideas. Luckily, the pumps are in very different places so itâs usually easy to tell if you are experiencing an automatic transmission problem or if you need to check the power steering fluid. Do I need to bring engie to TDC and than install the flywheel? .035 to .038 main is fine for a stock venturi. You might want to try out the stock e tube and see if it makes a difference. Giving it a 6 inch lift and I just purchased a 212cc predator engine, starting with stage 1 upgrade, wanting to know what is a good carburetor to get that will work with stage1,2,and possibly 3? Sometimes gaskets are reversed accidentally. What issues will I run into if I tilt a predator 212 forward (carb side would end up being higher) about 15 degrees. Feel free to contact us at 888-863-0426 with any questions. I reccomend getting the ‘CA certified’ motor. Just yesterday, I heard this very loud screeching when I accelerated and was softer when I was at a stop. Hi again, normally for the stock 6.5 hp engine I would need a 30 series torque converter, but if I add all of these performance parts will I need a bigger torque converter since it increases the hp? Do I need a bigger e-tube and possibly different size jets? As long as you purchase BlueDevil Power Steering Stop leak from us online (here: http://bit.ly/13eKpuJ) or from one of our partnering national retailers it is guaranteed to seal your power steering leak! The first thing to do is always check the fluid level and condition. The low idle and rattling sounds like you may either have a bad vacuum leak or a bad spark plug. Also, HP is dependent on rpms, and there is no real ‘standardized’ way of reporting hp across brands. Does the cut off header make a different sound than the Trumpet header aswell? Pull start the engine. I was wondering why (or why not) I should get a billet flywheel as an upgrade as well? Unfortunately vacuum leaks can be very difficult to track down since the hoses are all very small and there are quite a few of them. Thanks for your question about your Hyundai XG300. were replaced. You can do what you like, or spend 10 minutes and possibly a new sidecover gasket to do it the right way. Hay kart fab I have a predator 212 but when I try to start it it has a lot more resisting pressure because I put 18 pound valve springs onto it any ideas, Deff messed up ur valve lash. Will this help me go 5 mph faster or more like 20 mph? In that instance you should add 1/3 of a bottle of BlueDevil Power Steering Stop Leak and refill your power steering fluid to get it to the proper level. It stalled. When i go to start it up right after it dies, it starts right up and stays idling like normal. You don’t have to do anything with that line. Have put about 5 hours on it with no issues. when revving the engine or when accelerating during driving. When i go to pull off the track, it wants to stall out and die when i let off the throttle. Just pull on the cord gently to turn the engine over till you feel resistance on the compression stroke, then let the cord wind back up, then pull gently until you feel that tension, then give it a yank. Keep studying and learning. These clutches are cheap, bit if you take care keep them over heating, they will last a long time! It keeps destroying the torque converter. They will be the smallest hoses on your engine and you might need to remove them to check for leaks. The choke is actually an enrichment circuit and adds more fuel and unfortunately more air to the engine which causes it to rev to 2500 RPMs. Do you have any other suggestions as to what might be causing this issue? Thanks for your question about your Grand Cherokee. Speed is dependent on gear ratio and tire size. Hi, Required fields are marked *. For example when I gear down from 3rd to 2nd. Hey kart fab I’m new to this thread. What I need it a smaller spring so I can adjust the idle screw further out. All of this is modified by modifying the engine. Most vehicles with 4 cylinder engines have a system to raise the idle slightly if you try turning the steering wheel while stopped to make sure the engine doesn’t stall. Any advice you could give would be appreciated. same hp. I’m only 14 and very new to this but videos such as yours have helped a lot with this subject. To check for vacuum leaks, look for loose or broken vacuum hoses around your engine bay. Mark. The noise didn’t start until I got it back. Thanks for your question! Idle should be around 1600 rpm. Eli, I would LOVE your ideas and suggestions. What do I do? Thanks again for your questions! This thing is a 2020 model absolutely 0 issues before installing the kit. Then the tried changing out the o ringbin the power steering (I am now COMPLETELY convinced its the power steering) and most recently changed a hose on the P/S. Also,I notice that when I’m driving if I turn my heat to defrost the sound stops completely for a few seconds; that was really odd to me. For performance builds, i use the royal purple break in oil and royal purple HPS synthetic to protect cam and lifters. thanks i was just wondering if there was a factory difference, One has a hemi head one dosent. If you run a fuel pump, you MUST run a needle seat that is SMALLER than the stock one. A new belt along with your new idler pulley would solve this problem. Any suggestions? Thanks for your question about your 2004 Taurus. I decided to just leave the sensor in. The other possibility is simply that the alternator needs to be replaced. Did you ever mess with the head, flywheel, or put in a cam without a compression release? Sounds like you know what your talking about. Oh, I need suggestions! Ford recommends this every 30,000 miles in your car so if you’re due or close to due for a change, it may help quite down the whining noise you are hearing. Is it possible the small spring on the plunger is not strong enough for use with a pulse pump? https://www.affordablegokarts.com/bonneville.php. Just last month I spent about 10-20 messages back and forth between a guy that just couldn’t get this engine to run right – at the very first, he was like you, he KNEW he needed to clean the carb, and he said that he DID (but 3 weeks later and lots of frustration later he conceded to me that he actually couldn’t remove the jet on his carb, and that it was his jet that was clogged and three weeks of troubleshooting on his own terms, and his own ‘expertise’ weren’t enough to just do what you KNOW you need to do.
