It’s time to get this Sega scooting faster for free. Yeah, we got this vintage bug Wasp go kart going yesterday and it just wasn’t fast enough. So today we’re gonna take out the governor. Next, we’re gonna take off our torque converter. Brown boom and the torque fair play.
Think there’s a tool for that? I think so. Boom. Now we’re going to take off all these bolts that hold the side cover on. Just a few love taps. If you ain’t giving her a love tap, what are you even doing? You ever seen the innards of an engine before? Look at that create that we got back there. The great steps like the governor cam shaft, the oil sensor and right here, the governor. We cannot have that. All right, step one, we’re gonna get this governor leg or a governor arm, whatever you wanna call it, take off the pin under the bolt stuck. Once you got that off, don’t need that anymore.
Now we’re gonna undo the oil sensor. Too tight. We need the impact. Come on. There we go. That is how it’s done. So this is where the oil sensor comes out. The oil sensor will just shut off the engine if the oil is too low. But if you’re on a go cart that’s bumping, sloshing around, washing around, we don’t want that. So you just grab this and yank, boom. Come get your eyes up here real close. That’s where the wires were in. You just want to plug that hole so oil don’t go squirting out. Sometimes I’ll just take a little self tap and screw and just thread it right into the rubber. But we found a nut little cap not. So we’re just gonna close this off and no oil will escape and we’ll be skewed. Lastly, we need to get this governor arm off so we can get the gear behind the governor arm. What we’re going to do is take our safety grinder, safety students, hey, cotton goes out. You just like that and you can just leave that in there. It’ll be rattle around like a Christmas pig. Alright, now take this thing off. And this is kind of the annoying part. You have to get the gear off and there’s some little metal bits. But basically what people say, it just gets something like this. And just start going to town and tell something breaks, extract gold and there you go. Look at that.
Now, don’t forget to take the last washer out. There’s one last washer which we’ve forgotten, alright? And it’s all the way back there. And if you leave it, it could really damage your engine. Ta da, great success.
One of the last things you gotta do is close up this hole so that it’s not shooting oil out. So what I like to do is just get a little self tapper, plop it on here and throw it on down. Hope there’s a 10. Man, that’s a powerful drill. And there you have it. She’d be tapped. If we’re gonna do it right, we’re probably gonna put a new gasket, but we’re gonna do it half right. So we got some pieces, but we’re just gonna slap it back on easy as far. I think we’re about ready to plot this thing back on. Feel free to just reos the oil that you just took out. I mean, look at it. Oh, oh, we’re spelling. Sorry, Greta. Drilly. Drilly. Don’t touch my Kelly. Check out this pedal to the metal action. She little wobler than you would wobbler. Anyway, so we got this little lever arm. This is what usually comes on a stock Predator 212. We took this little wire connected to the throttle here, our cables going boom. And then we clamp here. And now maxing out. That’s all you need. Just the idle bit.
More people on that way. But still, Bob, speedrun, no breaks. All right, let’s check the top speed. You know, unlock your phone. A new top speed of 36.5 miles an hour when no breaks. Not bad for a little neighborhood scoop. I’d say we could get around 40 out of her as is, but that’s all we got for a day. Easy governor removal. We probably gained at least 30 miles per hour off this. stay tuned were gonna make this thing faster bye。
