We install a big valve 225cc Tillotson racing engine on a Manco Dingo yard kart! This Manco Dingo IX is the bigger of the two Dingos made, and this one has a Honda GX240 installed. The Dingo is in poor condition- the engine plate is cut up, the GX240 doesn't fit properly on the frame, the frame is bent meaning the kart doesn't turn properly, it doesn't have brakes, and one of the font wheels has no wheel bearings! So, installing a racing Tillotson 225cc engine required a lot of modification to the chassis.

Guys, I'm a scrapper, and I've found a ton of generators. Good motors, tapered shafts. An old timer yesterday gave me a tip: rather than machine or grind (Ike) the shaft down, just cut the last 3 inches off the armature shaft, below the windings. Shorten the bolt, attach that stub to the end of the crank, use red Loctite to "glue" the stub to the shaft, and bolt it on. You'll remove the bolt later to install a clutch. I'm gonna try it with my new 390cc Subaru Robin engine!

Its hard for me to explain because english is not my "everyday-language" but it was always like you and Ike. Then the day I heard that Charles comes to the team it was like:" hmm is this a good idea?" after tge first vid with Charles the case was done .... absolutely this was a perfect idea!

@LibertyFromLead 2 года назад

My Dingo I had when was like 12-13 was that size but came with big knobby tires and a Briggs and Stratton 8hp. I drove the crap out of that thing and had a blast every day! No suspension cause my roll cage to crack so me not wanting to stop or being a welder at 12, I just tore it off. Super sketchy obviously but what wasn't then?. Mine stock would light hose knobby's up in gravel and even break lose and do doughnuts on pavement. Man I miss it. It ended up seizing I thing bc it got even more tougher to start and finally stopped being able to pull start. I sold it but got a couple hundy still and put it toward a great running good shape older 70' Honda mini trail/street bike. It wasn't the z50 bc the tank was actually proportionate like a big bike to the seat and looked like a smaller full size. It had a 3 speed. Had 3 gears all down. instead of normally 1 down rest up, you shifted up to down shift. Weird. It had been repainted like a Chevy orange and had a blue pool liner for the seat cover lol. It ran very strong and lasted for several years. I bought it from my uncle that horse traded cars and trucks and whatever else and paid like $300 for it. After that he sold me a 90's Yamaha Razz scooter that I rode hard too and ended up later after a couple years of daily riding everywhere in the country and yards not starting one day. I think it was shot anyway. But anyhoo, glad I got this video yall. Brought back some of my favorite memories as a kid. Ive never seen anymore or anybody else on here with a Dingo. Oh yea I forgot about the Honda Odysee buggy kart too. It was like bigger and more hp than the Dingo. Have y'all ever seen one of those? Back in 80's prob I believe. Later guys.

@ashiehakoto1490 4 дня назад

dingo really could do with some doorbars. for safety. something between you and whatever you hit when you roll it because you're crazy like me and attached full suspension from an old quad and fabbed up a swaybar from some bent tubing with the ends pinched, welded, and reinforced to handle the bolt trying to turn a circle into an oval, and it does work well as a makeshift swaybar. note to self, next time shave the seam, and nest a pipe inside and weld the ends together first before bending and doing the swaybar linkage. it needs a stiffer bar, and a twin tube is tougher than just stright up thicker walls, funnily enough

@ashiehakoto1490 4 дня назад

and just like that, just by scooting the motor mount as far forward as possible, you made the dingo go from rear engine rear drive, to mid engine rear drive. for a vehicle to be considered mid engine, the engine itself has to be mounted somewhere between the front and rear axle at their center line.

@dwaynet2184 2 года назад

great video guys, I've a story for you. 30 yrs ago I wound up with a dingo gocart and I think it was the same size as this one. anyway I extended the frame 2 ft behind the seat and installed a Honda 350 street bike engine and with a lot of tinkering got that sucker to do 75 mph on a dirt road. but take off was the best because it would throw rooster tails straight up as you left with the front tires 12 inches off the ground. that was a scary little cart. but I had a lot of fun out of it.

@BuzzLOLOL 2 года назад

That Honda 350 should have been good for over a 100... especially since a low cart pushes less wind than an upright rider on a bike... In 1968 I scratch built a suspension minibike tightly around a Jawa 350cc 2 cycle 2 cylinder 4 speed tranny motorcycle engine... licensed it for street with title from Cushman scooter the engine had been on earlier...

@dwaynet2184 2 года назад

@@BuzzLOLOL no sir mine was an old 4 stroke 2 cylinder and small tires drastically reduce the top speed on any cart and it wasn't built for speed it was built to trail ride so in 1st gear it would climb without stalling . Anyway the 350 I used was very worn-out , so much so that I could start it with just my hand with no kickback . And the bike I took it off of was abandoned at a house I bought. Lots of parts stripped no speedo .

@BuzzLOLOL 2 года назад

@@dwaynet2184 - You just change the overall gearing to compensate for small tires... and build with weight over rear tires for traction off road... a Honda 350 could climb about any hill in 1st gear... although the 350 Scramblers had less power than the street bikes... like 85 MPH vs 110 MPH... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_CB350
