Переглядів 7874 роки тому
Episode 1 - Unboxing the Harbor Freight Predator 212. Join us for a mildly belabored discussion of how to differentiate a "hemi" from a "non-hemi" Predator 212cc. Then watch as we literally unbox the engine and sort through the contents to find the important piece concealed within. This is a good video to start with if you are researching the Monster Moto / Mega Moto 80 engine swap. If you've a...

Переглядів 104 тис.4 роки тому
Episode 2 - How to bypass and/or remove the governor on the Harbor Freight Predator 212 engine. Follow along as Wes and Forrest walk through both ways to bypass the governor: the "ziptie method" is reversible and we also show opening the Harbor Freight Predator 212cc engine and removing the physical components of the governor from within. While we have the case open we also remove the low oil s...
Speed Gears - Episode 1

Mistakes were made. This whole project is filled with incorrect assumptions, crappy rigging, Forrest learning how to talk, and general bad decisions combined with a lack of mechanical sympathy. We do successfully swap the E-Z-Go TXT axles, though. This episode is more of a cautionary tale than any kind of how-to guide. Follow along as we make our pre-existing situation worse and create more opp...
Meth Bike - Episode 1

Wes and Forrest acquire a golf cart through the usual channels!! After a little bit of googling and a lot of shopping on Amazon it is decided that this cart needs to be powered by fossil fuels. A search for a suitable power plant ensues and... by the power of Greyskull and some obviously illegal drug manufacturing... a Kawasaki Ninja 300ex is located for sale (or trade). Follow along as we send...
Did ypu just escape from the county jail? Your still wearing the jump suite 😮😊
Perfect step by step tutorial thank you
Okay but like I started the same time you did once I saw you could use a flat head and in that time the whole sponge Bob time card skip part of the video was all the time I needed to pull off the governor. Thank you for the laughs and the tips
man i have watched these videos and i am just trying to figure out if it 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘣𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘦 with the origianl chain and clutch?
No, it cannot be done with the original chain and original clutch. The output shaft on the 212 engine is larger than the output shaft on the stock engine; therefore the original clutch will not fit and cannot be adapted. The original chain is too short and must be lengthened to accommodate the new components. I suppose it may be possible to reuse your original chain and add a few links from another chain (be careful to match sizes) and add an additional master link (that's code for "add an additional failure point").
Is it better to zip tie the spring thing or completely remove the internal pary
Define "better". Zip tie-ing doesn't involve opening the case. Opening the case doesn't leave any spinny bits inside your case that are now destined to exceed their design RPM. It all depends on how comfortable you are with what you are doing. Personally - zip tie it and go!
Can you use hand tools, effectively, remove. If not, zip. Removal is best
Get the all the metal out and run it and for alittle bit drain the oil and you'll be good
Magnetizing a screwdriver can be done by coiling a wire completely covering the shaft. Ten sparking te wire across positive and negative of a 12v battery.
That low oil sensor hole is an ideal place to put a 1/8npt hose barb...for vacuum pulse...for a fuel pump.
The 3rd and most easy way to remove the governor is to remove the linkage that connects the governor arm to the throttle arm on the carburetor. By using the original manual throttle control arm (supplied with predator 212 ) as a perfect place to drill a small hole and relocate the cable connector that are in the wrong place for a minibike throttle. So the original throttle cable clamps to the throttle control assembly on the engine. Its cable pulls the arm to control the throttle and a compression spring returns it to ithe dle stop position. You just need to make a small offset bend in a bicycle spoke to make a pushrod to connect throttle control arm to the carburetor throttle arm. Now when you give it the gas, no governor is interfering. Meanwhile it (the governer) still has its arm, gears and its hapoy thinking its doing its job. Too much trouble disassembling engine. But there are 1000 different ways to skin a cat. Good video, i still watched as you offer much to learn from, and keep up the good work.
Good comment Totally agree on the 'guvner'. Not worth the trouble and possible f-up on a new engine. Maybe at the first required tear down. Same for oil sensor. Just disconnect.Good video though. Tnx.
Bjr c issaabdou cava❤
What happened to you guys? This videos are so helpful
i did it to mine and it wont run how would i fix it
What size chain do i need for replacement?
For reference a #35 5ft works
To prevent the bolt plug from jamming up your engine you can bust out the like 125 Flux core wire buddy and kill the nut.
If u let the arm gouvernor like this its like just a by-pass or its completly removed ?
Extremely helpful, thank you!
So what happens if you don’t remove pieces of governor inside with it explode?
Hindi ma
My crank is in the way of the oil’s sensor, can I freely spin it upward to give me the room to slide it out?
watched 10 videos of people breaking them out ... popped the flywheel and tapped the whole gear assembly into the case from outside in a bout 30 seconds including rattling the sheet metal and flywheel off lol
Duuuuude, they aren’t dikes anymore! Alternative lifestyle cutters is the pronoun.
I won't use my minibike off road so it is nice to be able to have an external option to control the governor and leave everything in place inside the crankcase. Grassy ass for this vide.
can you share the list of parts you used?
Just ordered a new Governor because customers is tired of his kids blowing it up all the time and they have destroyed 4 engines in a year Lololo
Insane they used a 8 mill complete fools
IF SOMEONE COULD HELP ME OUT THAT WOULD BLESS MY LIFE, if you put the tip tie on the spring and it eliminates the governor. Is there really a need to go in the engine and take it out? genuinely curious someone help‼️
Zip tie is a band aid, removal is fix
After getting a cam, pvl flywheel , rod and 22lb springs should i upgrade rockers to or will i be fine
Theres a new fangled thing called lights. Its great for dark places!
you can bump the side cover off with a mallet and preserve the gasket.
Is there any way you can list everything that you put on the motor got the same exact frame same exact motor Just don't know all the parts I would need please and thank you
Please the stop sign in your garage doesn’t look good, children might get the wrong idea and remove one from the street . I’m sure that’s not where you got yours .
Thanks..I had a question..you did all the stage one mods, gov delete, did you change valve springs? Can I do stage 1 and change springs to #18 without swapping flywheel ...why do I keep hearing that you need to go to bullet fw on these hemi's?? Thanks
Hey just wondering what cluch are you guys using
Fantastic. Love the now obvious logic of keeping that oil sensor plug in place. could the same be done on the governor arm even in the vent you werent keeping the stock throttle items in place? Thankas for the great video!
Bend the pipe up.
Take out the front drain plug and replace with a regular plug and you can tighten it down below flush for maximum clearance.
What’s a bad boy?
do you have to use the filter for the hose? my kit didn’t come with any
FYI Use a ice pick, or sharp point carpenters awl, or sharp marking scribe to catch that annoying time consuming lock ring on the govonor post and drive it DOWN. When it is driven down, it pops open enough to then pry off with the same sharp point tool. Takes a few seconds. I wrapped a piece of rag down in there, so it couldn't spring into the crank case. Also, a dab of any grease on a cotton swab, piece of rag, or screw driver will pick up most inadvertant debris or shavings. I put the whole engine back together, and had to take it back apart because I forgot to remove that little spacer washer at the bottom of the shaft. Fortunately, it had not migrated around in the engine. Thank you for your excellent "how to" it worked for me!
Damn someones out on work detail .
For the snap ring on the governor gear I found to make quick work of it that you can use a cheap small harbor freight wood chisel.
Best video I found on explaining this 👍
Oil is spraying out of my oil sensor like 5ft
My gasket tore apart completely and left behind a bunch of small pieces of gasket on both mating faces, what is the best way to remove those without damaging those surfaces?
good vid bros cant u just vac the debris out or use compressed air somehow then relube her up
What exhaust pipe did you use on the build? Thanks I used your video to build mine 😂
What is there a second dipstick? Is there a specific use for it?
In case the engine is mounted where access is blocked on one side.
Hi! Can you share a list of all the parts that you used in the build and where you purchased them from? Thanks in advance!
is there a better way to remove the little washer after you remove the governor?
Sees zip tie trick and immediately likes and turns off video 👍🏾
