Pig Pen is right. Although it was a very dirty kart he did keep that PV very clean (you should too)
BTW, it did grate that such a dirty kart was the State Champion. 😥
And I have to live with that err and his gas cocktails…
I could only imagine the smell of the fumes coming out of my tailpipes. What was that like? I obtained the fuel from the Taliban due to some investigation into WMD’s (whatever that means). No matter the source of the fuel – it worked! :idn:
Dennis,
Last weekend I was at the Mile High Nationals and when they started the Funny Cars in the pits damned if I hadn’t smelled that smell once before. You know, burning nose, watering eyes…
:pukeDennis, I suppose if you say so I must be wrong, and interestingly enough you did not even try to understand why you are losing power.
:sun: Thanks for all the information it was a great help. Why the question on the cleaning or not cleaning of the power valve. Please explain in an understanable way. I cleaned with the steel wool as advised and mild detergent on rubberized material.
You want that valve to pop out at 7500 RPM, period. Sticking valve creates a lag right when you get the rpm to make it come out. once it comes out (non engineering talk to follow) then the engine exhaust is different and this makes the HP and torque to continue upward (versus the jr engine that doesn’t have this ability)
Capeesh?
