ok, i registered. so can you please send some info on that carb (big chunky black plastic one) and also some info on putting on a new carb. like, buying a better one. because i plan on using the engine for a go kart and the standard carb (i think) is a bit primative for the application. thanks

Information has been sent.

hey, thanks for the info on the carby. the 'needle' it speaks of thats in the float chamber, how big is it and what colour is it? i think i may have lost it. can they be bought by them selves and if so, are they cheap?

RICHO,
All the parts can be bought seperatley. As to the primer cap it is about 2" in diameter and cost about $12-00 for the cap and needle is about $2-00.
