    One of our most popular builds has returned! The Rotary shifter kart (powered by a Hercules W2000 wankel motor) had been in storage since the last video we did with it of hitting the top speed. The clutch had failed at the end of the video due to the clutch pushrod welding itself to the ball bearings and eating through the lever arm. We had found a hydraulic clutch on ebay for a Harley that had the same size diameter for the pushrod, and it ended up working better than we expected! We also changed the gearing to get us some better top speed!
    Thanks for watching, stay safe and stay tuned for the next video!

    The engine seems like it's running a little too lean, with the missing and blue flames. Could put an O2 sensor mount in the exhaust before the muffler to get some mixture measurements as you tune the carb. Tuning a carb is just make changes and see if it's better or worst.

    • @dereksumstad6746
      @dereksumstad6746 Před 3 lety +3

      wouldn't flames out of the exhaust mean it's running rich? there's excess fuel that's not been burnt in the exhaust.

    • @Luminaring
      @Luminaring Před 3 lety +2

      @@dereksumstad6746 The blue color is the concern for me. In a piston engine, a rich back fire has yellow in it. Now, I do know rotary exhaust temps are way higher than piston engine...so maybe a rotary running rich is Blue and not yellowish. We tune 2 strokes carbs by soldering the jet closed and drilling few to the next size bigger or smaller till it 'felt' better. Just my 2 cents.
