Kart Owner n00b First Start X30 (video)

Getting Started in Karting
1

I’ve been perusing the forums here and posting a bit with questions. I learned a lot, so thanks a bunch!

Using what I learned, I just started this new-to-me X30 OTK that’s been stored for 3-4 years.

How’d I do? Anything I missed? Anything heinously wrong? Lots to do still before it hits the track, but hopefully going in the right direction.

Thinking about making more of these ShortReelToks if they actually help or entertain people. Maybe when prepping for the track and doing engine teardowns and whatnot. Thoughts? Comments? Random insults?

Thanks.

Well without over enginering this, we do the following.

  1. We use 1l oil to 20l of fuel, if you are new dont brother with expensive racefuel.
  2. We allways empty the cooling system When do e for the day, we use regular tab water.
  3. Dont use to much Air pressure In thetank to get fuel to the carb, we remove the sparkplug, hold a hand infront of the carb and turn the engine over, this will In a fem seconds make the carb pump up the fuel. We allways empty the carb When its not In use.

Anyway just enjoy the thing its a nice engine thats easy to use.
