What jet did they use on your kit?? I will run better when jetted correctly. They tend to over jet there from what we've seen.
127.5 to 130 seems to give nice results after those mods.
I had a 125 in it from them to begin with. That backfired and ran too lean. No amount of air/fuel adjustment would help. Put in a 130 and then a 135 with the same results. I believe they screwed something else up when they took the engine apart to attempt an HP cam install, which they claimed they were unable to do.

First of all…thanks for all the great information I’ve read here. I think I’ve spent 12 hours reading and learning. What a great source of solid information! This is my first post here and I’d like to contribute what I can.
I purchased a SunL 150cc buggy. I love it, but wanted more acceleration. Mine is the 2005 ˝ model which has the larger 22” rear tires (was 19” I think), I don’t think they changed the gearing to accommodate the larger tires. Anyway, I ordered the 9 and 10 gram rollers from MiamiMoto and the racing clutch, spring and plug from Carl. To sum it up the difference is amazing. Thanks Carl! I’m still running the stock air filter and exhaust, but the acceleration is massively improved. I wish I had a speedometer and tach, but that it down the list. The engine really revs up much better. Before the mods, it always felt like I was starting out in 5th gear or something. Now I can power out of corners and get to my top speed much quicker.
Thanks, thanks, thanks!
Oh, I took lots of pics of the entire process…I could post them if it would help anyone? :D

I would like to see those pictures. I have the same model. Right now, it is in Eastside being fixed. The carb was puking gas. They fixed that, put on a HP kit and rejetted it for higher altitude. It ran worse when they were done than before. If your mods work well, I may buy them and do the install myself. Eastside does not impress. |

Yeah, bet the timing is off now. Maybe only 1 tooth off, but that makes a big difference.

Okay, here are the pics. I really wanted to make something people could use, so a wrote up a step-by-step guide to changing the CVT rollers/clutch and spring. If anyone notices any mistakes let me know.
Thanks for all the help you guys have been!

Randy!
Awesome, awesome job you did there.
A sticky you shall go.
I don't remember if you mentioned roughing up the inside of the bell surface some. If it was used a while and looks like a smooth glass surface on the inside where the pads contact, the new pads will slip and could burn out rather fast.
Give Randy, our resident Mountain Dew guzzler some positive Karma points folks!

Good idea. I did not rough the inside of the bell up, but my kart only had about ten hours on it. Not glazed yet. I'll add that to the guide and repost it after all additions are suggested. Thanks. Oh, and yes, the Dew is good! A little too good. I think I have a problem.
