Weirdly two stroke karts optimally run at 120-130f. 140f is dangerous and you should open the radiator block off more, 150f is very dangerous and you should immediately let it cool down.
@@danielsdayoff I would assume that a hot cylinder is just too expanded for the piston and it loses compression but will it also run the risk of piston melting or just also heating so much it seizes? I have an old CR125 shifter kart myself that needs money and tlc when I get some extra :)
Are thermostats not allowed in karting? Cheers :)
