    My New (To Me) MTD Minibike!

    I picked up this MTD minibike today along with an old Kohler K91. The previous owner was a lifelong minibike enthusiast; He completely restored it, new paint, bearings, everything. The engine isn't original, but I believe it's the same model engine as was on there originally, a Tecumseh H50. It...

    Modifying the ADC spring tension

    When eliminating the governor completely and siliconing the hole closed, don't forget that over revving will stretch the spring on the automatic decompression mechanism mounted on the cam. All of a sudden you won't be able to start your engine. Too much compression. You need to replace the...

    Side cover for an HS40

    Hi guys, I have a really nice HS40 but someone took the post for the governor and installed it backwards trapping the governor gear. After hours and some help, the conclusion was we were NOT going to get this shaft out of the side cover. We eventually destroyed it in the attempt. I think the...

    Governor removal questions

    Let me preface this by saying that I have not disabled the governor yet but I plan on doing so only after I have all the necessary parts. Anyhow here are my questions. 1. Instead of physically removing the governor arm and gear from the engine, could you just leave it inside of the engine...

    Tecumseh H50 throttle

    First off I didn't paint the engine the crazy color blue. Bought off a member here.:scared: I was able to buy a h60 and stole the shroud off it because it had the throttle components that are extremely hard to find. My problem is my existing motor only has one governor arm and it's the one on...

    Briggs air vane governor

    May seem like a strange request to be looking for a governor, but this is a restoration after all. Briggs 3hp 80302-0016 What I am looking for is part #200 on this diagram: It has the arm coming out at 90 degrees to the vane, straight out towards the carb. The governor I have is for a...

    Low budget, stock RPM Predator Hemi mods for boat "mud motor"?

    Hi all, I realize this site is dedicated to mini bikes, but it is by far the best resource for modifying Predator engines. I'm a motorcycle mechanic and fabricator and will use a 212 Predator Hemi to build a longtail boat mud motor. It's nice to see how affordable these race parts are...

    Motovox MBX10 Top speed

    I unscrewed the governor half way last night and I was flying down the road; it felt like I was going 35+ I was wondering if this is bad for the engine to overide the governor like that... I have a lot more engine to go, it can be unscrewed a lot more, and I was just wondering the top speeds...

    196 cc clone engine on baja warrior

    On my 2013 warrior, I got the 140 emulsion tube and a .038" main jet. It really helped with the lean condition and surging. I changed out the exhaust for a pipe and the mini RLV-91 muffler. I also got a K&N filter and adapter. I have ordered a 6 degree advance timing key. Next I will get a...

    Governor settings

    Why are there 3 holes on the governor lever? Mine came stock with the spring in the middle hole.(predator 212cc) Would putting the spring in a different hole change anything noticeably? Which hole would allow more performance? I tried searching on Google and couldn't find anything. Just curious.
