The VIN is usually located behind the driver’s side seat on the crossbar. Older models may be located under the seat, behind the seat or on the driver side of the frame behind the front tire.

The go-kart comes standard with low-grade factory oil, which we change out on assembly to 10W-40.  Synthetic oils are always recommended.

Premium fuel is recommended, but regular unleaded is all that is needed. These are not high compression engines and do not require premium fuel.  However, since you will be getting great mileage on a tank of fuel, we use Premium fuel to help in keeping the carb clean.

We recommend 7psi for the front tires and 10psi for the rear tires as these pressure settings are good for normal use on off-road terrain.

We recommend high grade 80/90 or 75/140 gear oil.

Make sure the unit has fuel in it. If the unit has an on/off valve make sure the valve is turned on. Then check for spark by grounding out the plug wire and turning the engine over. Last, check the engine for compression by first pulling out the spark plug and then using a compression gauge to see how much compression the engine has. If the unit is still having trouble starting please contact us at 513-753-0888. .

If the unit is to be unused for at least 30 days, the battery will need to be maintenance by using a 2-amp trickle charger (we recommend Battery Tender Junior with automatic shut-off feature) charging it every 30 days in order to keep the battery up and reverse any sulfating caused by normal discharging. Also, use a fuel stabilizer as the oxygenators in the fuel will evaporate. Make sure the buggy is run long enough to get the mixture into the carburetor.  Do not put this additive in and not run the buggy!

No. These are made for off-road riding, and are not legal in most states.
