Please take your time with me….I’m new to the forum and still have a lot to learn.
I got the kart from a cousin who rebuilt it and have been learning as I go. It has a GX200 clone.
As I was driving last week I heard a bang and noticed an occasional sputter so I turned back to the house and shut the engine off. It didn’t have any issues on the mile return to the house.
I thought maybe I ran over something and also couldn’t find any external signs of damage right away.
I tried to restart the engine but it wouldn’t start.
As I removed the pull start cover I saw the issue. The magnet on the flywheel had broken apart and was in shards.
I did some quick google searches and thought buying an inexpensive one aluminum one on Amazon was the best choice and it had good reviews.
I can’t get the engine running now. I have fuel but I don’t seem to have spark.
First, do you have a link to the flywheel you bought? I’d be concerned about the quality, rpm rating. How did you determine if it has the correct ignition timing. Is there a magnetic field on the new flywheel?
