    My Comet torque-a-verter kit only came with a #35 sprocket and my bt200 has a 420 chain.
    I unfortunately didn’t realize this until I destroyed the sprocket.
    Thankfully Comet customer support is actually really good and the guy even offered to FaceTime install the replacement clutch with me.

    Looks easy enough. Ill be emailing you soon for the Torque Converter to a 224 Predator.

    This was very thorough.
    My Comet clutch actually needed to have one of the support brackets cut off to clear that same oil fill plug on the 212cc motors.
    Doesn’t look like yours needed that.

    Maybe you can edit this and add a notice that if you have a Colman engine with a 17mm crankshaft go watch the other video where you show us how to install the drive pulley
    Otherwise this and the Stage 2 kit videos are very well made and informative.

    Thanks for the video, I have a problem hope anybody can help.
    I put a converter on a Baja Warrior. If I do it the way it's done in this video my
    front sprocket is not in line with my rear sprocket. The chain wears the inside of the front sprocket.
    So I put a space on to move the front sprocket out. Now the chain works fine, but when I align
    the two inside belt plates I don't have enough drive shaft left to mount the hub.
    What am I missing?
    Thanks

    I have a Baja Warrior with the 196cc engine but the crankshaft is treaded on the end to take a nut to hold on the clutch. I don't see any Torquer Converters that will woke with this type of crankshaft on a Mini Bike engine.

    If 1 of the bolt holes that hold the side plate of the torque converter on is stripped but the bolt still goes in all the way just doesn't fully tighten and i use red loctite on that bolt is that good enough or should i rethread it with 1 size bigger ? Right now i have red loctite on it.

    • @TheGrayGoatGarage
      @TheGrayGoatGarage  Před 2 lety +1

      I am not keen on going one size bigger. That will compromise the side cover and you would need to be very careful and not go too deep
      It is hard for me to evaluate without seeing it
      You could try this product

    Is the riser plate mandatory? I'm about to finally receive parts tomorrow to place 2 CXRCY Torque Converters onto 2 predator 224's for a warrior 200 and a ct200u ex.

    • @TheGrayGoatGarage
      @TheGrayGoatGarage  Před rokem

      The riser plate is not 100% necessary, but you will need to raise the engine to get the torque converter mounted.
      We designed the riser specifically for the Coleman bikes so you do not have to cut the frame.
      We have also used it successfully on the Warrior.

    I am restoring an engine. (It’s just a clone 196cc) and noticed that it has aluminum push rods. I think I would rather have steel pushrods in it though. I have a spare clone 163cc that has steel pushrods. The aluminum rods are 0.0035 shorter than the steel rods. Would it be ok for me to swap them? Is that a big enough difference to warrant not swapping or will this difference not be a problem? Thanks for any help.

    • @TheGrayGoatGarage
      @TheGrayGoatGarage  Před rokem +1

      That is not good! The plates are not designed to take pressure from that side of the plate. We have sent them break because if that.
      The sprocket should only be between the plate and the driven

    • @TheGrayGoatGarage
      @TheGrayGoatGarage  Před 9 měsíci

      That depends. The bearing housing on the mounting plate will hit the rear oil fill plug. Most people have to cut that off to get the plate mounted.
      If on a tall kart you could hang it straight down and be ok
      You would be better off with a 40 series unit. Heavier duty for all that torque and an easier install

    • @TheGrayGoatGarage
      @TheGrayGoatGarage  Před 2 měsíci

      2 days to 2 years! It depends on how the torque converter is installed, the engine, and the gearing choice. Install it right and you could get 6 months from a belt.

    Update just saw your earlier video on the 16mm setup that doesn't use the bushing but will leave my question. Thanks for your video work on install!! How important is the bronze idle bushing? I am putting together a convertor unit sourced thru Go Power Parts and it looks like yours but they don't use an idle bushing. Is the bushing made of Oilite bronze which is self lubricating or just plain bronze or brass? Can it be made of steel? Saw another video where a guy had trouble with the bronze bushing and left it out and claimed no problem with it unless you let the bike idle for long periods. Being a retired Toolmaker I made my crank pulley spacer out of a solid piece to correct length instead of a stack of washers. Also making support bushing for the small 16mm bolt that holds the driving pulley pack on crank. My bike is the Coleman BT200X.

    • @TheGrayGoatGarage
      @TheGrayGoatGarage  Před rokem

      The bushing is not that important to warrant the work. It only helps the belt when idling…and I don’t know about you, but I don’t let my bike idle all the time. Most guys that eat the bushing on the 3:4” units never replace them!
