I have a question every day, "How do I use my old lawn mower engine for a go-kart-Run?"
Well, the answer comes in three different forms,
Gear Drive
Upside-Engine: vertical, horizontal conversion
Twisted-belt
Each system is dedicated to the motor vertical to solve the problem: vertical motors are the waves up and down. The question is: "How the hell do I get the wheels that rotate horizontally to rotate with avertical shaft? "
This is the old question, changing the layout engine and guidance.
I will tell you that if the majority of people in the options you need to look at how to use an old engine stopped, and they just lay back in a corner.
But I think most do it because solutions seem so threatening.
I remember as a child looking at a go-kart motor vertical and very impressed with him. Unfortunately, because I was a child (8 years) I did not havethe faintest idea of how the Go-Kart was actually with this engine. It remains in my memory is like a bunch of belts and pulleys. This is all I get out.
Most would think that you must be a mechanical genius, really a vertical engine on a go-cart work. But you really do not know, you should understand some basic mechanisms, then it is feasible.
To begin with, some understanding of vertical motors is necessary.
Above all, the engine usually verticalsome drawbacks, most of front drive shaft has a 7 / 8 ° 's. Try a pulley and clutch that fits you!
Second, vertical motors that have a knife attached directly to the engine using the blade as a flywheel. The engine is not working well, all without the knife, or a system of additional weight.
Third, a vertical engine is internally vertically, because the mechanisms of dispersal of oil is inside. They range from Splashers slinger thatExpiration of the camshaft or the oil pump that actually take-off of the camshaft.
If the engine on its side, wheels spinning, and the pumps are running in the air. As a result, no oil will be thrown into the internals, and the engine take in a short time.
In addition, the rods are not intended to take the oil as a horizontal engine. Typically, the shaft is a hole in the top of the crank pins that accept oil. If this hole is not present, oilEntering through the channel, and, yes, you guessed it, the staff will take you to the crank pin.
Fourth, the carburetor designed to set up a vertical upright. Upstream of the modified carburetor needed to run the engine in a horizontal position. Moreover, the mechanism by the governor, for all intensive purposes (unless you're a mechanical genius), disable, and non-functional. In other words, we can use to rev the engine slightly (some of us is not aProblem, but with an unskilled driver, this can be a very big problem!)
With all this information disturbing, looks pretty grim from the surface. I have good news and that is: no, it is not so threatening as it sounds. This is a very feasible, a very economical solution, just waiting to be discussed ...
The next time the different methods, their advantages and disadvantages ...
