| < Modifications - Mini Off Road Kart ~ Carter 2336-2000 Back to Life |

For a few hundred dollars, my son and I rebuilt an old Carter Kart that had been left outside for too many years. The running gear is all stock, but we added a few items for a little "Wow Factor".
A 12 Volt battery was added to power some extra lighting with a selector switch so the battery can charge from the engine during the day and a voltmeter on the dash to monitor the battery health with the lights on.
We also welded in some side panels for rider safety and a "bikini top" to shade the riders from the 220 Watts of lights.
Have fun

back to life.

Thanks!
It has a Tec. OHH60 and I would like to put a carb with more adjustment so I can smooth out the idle. If anyone knows any tricks, let me know. We just took it for a ride - what a blast! I just wish I could get it to idle better.

The buggy looks great...
I don't have any experience with that carb. Is it stock or have you made any changes to the intake/exhaust?

Everything is stock on the engine. It is just hard to get it started since it does not idle consistently.
My son is 11 so I cannot let him drive alone yet. If I am not mistaken, Michigan requires solo drivers to be 16 on public land. We own 100 acres in northern Michigan to ride on so once he has proven himself, I will govern it down and let him ride.
We plan on taking on another project again next year. Maybe we will resurrect a suspension kart.
Thanks for the looks!
