Use brass barb with a threaded male end and drill right next to the cap. Use some plumbers tape and make sure that your male threaded end is tapered. Good luck that should work for you. Also put a peice of thin rubber between tank and pump
Love the build progress! Keep grinding Migs! As far as the return line, I would personally drill a hole towards the top of the gas tank and JB weld a fitting to accept that size of hose. I think drilling it into the cap would cause problems in the future.
Seth Krahn In some cases yes but I just made a gas tank out of a aluminium water bottle with JB weld and it’s holding up great, I think it just needs to be mixed right and the surfaces need good prep
You need a bigger fuel tank man!! And get some decent fuel line. By the time you fill up all that fuel line your probably down half a tank. Lol 4 carbs use.more fuel than you think
Bro don’t worry about it this build needs time take as much as time as you need dont rush this build I would rather wait months and this build be done right and no problems then see it built quick and break🙂 love the vids keep up the good work
Moto migs you’re Doing some amazing work on that project and fixing all the flaws on the project,I enjoy watching your videos and look forward to seeing the nascart project finished.
G'day Migs I hope your using the correct motor oil for motorcycles if you use friction modified oil , your clutch will slip when under load . For the tank you should Get a nut riveting tool , this will make it so you can , drill the top of the tank then put the threaded rivet in then tighten by squeezing the handles together this will seal it's self ,then get a threaded barb with a 90% bend the size you need for your fuel line this should help you . Hey I'm glad you are asking questions things will run smoother when you do , make sure you read all the comments, that way you can understand what we are trying to advise you to do. We are here to help !
And also do not use that pool hose for an air duct line there will be to much restriction and it is not big enough for that motor use 3" pvc and flare out the ends of the BBC in front
G'day mate yeah I suggested he should make the shifter with a pivot point at the top of the shifter leaver and one at the other end where the gear leaver is . Unsure if that's on the list , for the return line use a riveting tool and a 90%
Also check the inside of the hose your planing on using for your naca ducts. It has to be smooth. if it's ribbed in the inside (And probably is) It will be very restrictive for that application and flow little or no air. Since the pressure is very limited.
Run a tee fitting before the fuel pump and run the return line to it. Also make sure the fuel lines have slack they don’t need to be tight that’s just asking for them to eventually come loose.
Drain the fuel tank, drill a hole, and mount a compression fitting (something with a gasket tp prevent leaks). You might even be able to use an old petcock valve.
Where is your fuel cell that was on the kart does it not have a return line option on it plus it would be safer also you need to run steel line as much as possible with proper rubber fuel line and clamps for safety
people have been saying ffrom day 1 to get a jumper pack. Just imagine conecting a jumper pack and starting the go kart or bike vs charging a battery for 4-6 hours, and then maybe starting it. Use your head and be smart here.
Plz use proper fuel line 😟, also get a bigger tank. You could put a nipple on the tank top and have your return line attached to it. Make sure you use Wet clutch oil if it's not already and replace the oil filter now, if the old ones been sitting that long it'll bugger up all your hard work. Get a jumper pack, half your time is spent charging a battery 👌
Hey there awesome progress bro 🤗 I'm not trying to be a smart ass but did you remember to fully re tighten up the oil drain bung ? you would be very surprised at how many people do 😲 just put it back by hand just to stop it dripping while they checkout the oil or empty the oil tray when they were originally going to let it continue dripping overnight to get out the real thick gunge/buildup 😉 25 years ago a mate did it with a Honda just like mine and it fell out during a ride 🙄 the bike still run being a Honda but was beyond repair and I always leave the bung in the socket so I will never actually replace it without using the socket and tighten it up completely 🤗 great job and show thank you
You can drill a hole in the side of the gas tank and put a valve stem in and take out the valve core i belive standard fuel hose is the righ size to hose clamp to the valve stem and that could be your return line thats what i would do
What about the chocolate head studs u put in ie threaded bar ? Also plate u mounted pump on way to thin ! Why don’t you reach out to a welder get him to guide you maybe weld up jack shaft properly.its a nice cart but you have bodged it up bad
@K Z yeah that's true , I suggested he use threaded riveting tool that will seal it's self , then there's no chance of explosion , and little bits of Migsy all over the work shop , or fireball Migsy running around the back yard stop drop & rolling . Mal.
I like how the NASCAR its coming out.just take your time.the only thing i cud recommend its get your self some atv ramps at harborfreight so u do struggle as much .good vid
I would recommend a new filter, the oil might not look extremely bad I personally would recommend it to get more life out of this engine. I think you should let it sit and run for about 20-30 min and drain that oil that you just put in so you can clear out all the old mucky oil and throw on a new filter and put some full synthetic 10w-40 In with a new filter that is meant for full synthetic and let it sit and run for 10 min or so with the new oil then after 3,000 miles replace the oil again but keep it full synthetic, once you switch to full synthetic you don’t want to switch back and forth between regular and synthetic. That’s what I recommend for a clean flush out of that old gross oil. :)
the pressure regulator is has fuel in line out and return is they a vacume pipe needed to manifold to know when to regulate or is it just like an air compresser would use with the problem you had i wounder if that the problem or maybe the fuel pump is not upto it another idea is a fuel pump for a motor cycle they have a live a neg and a feed wire to the live wire of coil number one to know when to pump and this is how they regulate when the engine was running i could see air traverling up the feed to the carbs so something is not set right and drawing in air
LOL thats a dead head holley style regulator not a bypass regulator. It has one inlet and 2 outlets . Commonly used on carbs with 2 float bowels. It is not good for low volume because once it shuts the flow it dead heads the pump. You maybe able to rig up one outlet as a leak to avoid dead heading the pump but you will give up to much volume during high fuel demand. Invest in a bypass regulator or try it with no regulator. Those cheap inline pumps come in different pressures maybe find one with 3-4 psi.
just plug the return line its not needed, i have run the same setup on a cb750 when i ran alcohol, also you bought the wrong pump, it makes to much pressure, the right pump doesn't need a regulator, but having said that you don't need a pump, just mount a gas tank above the engine, the needle and seat in your carbs are for gravity feed.
Drill a hole into the actual gas tank and use a metal valve stem for like a vehicle and put it in there it won't go anywhere and you can put your liner as you return
Run a simple tee fitting before the pump, connect tank, pump input, and return on the tee, and use actual fuel lines, absolutely scares me your trying to be a firefighter... 😲 your wiring, your fuel system, lack of exhaust heat shield. Again so many more issues...
Yes , nothing like clutch slip using friction modified oils , bike oils for bikes , I learnt this the hard way , used the wrong oil on my Vtx 1300 and stuffed the clutch plates , that one cost me quite a bit because I was on a road trip when I did it , had to find a Bike shop that had the parts on the shelf , and in Australia that's not an easy thing to do , I had to go 150 miles out of my way ,which isn't that far really , Oz is a big place and Honda dealers are far and few between . I did the swap in a motel car park with minimal tools the motel owner had ,he was a big help though running around getting parts when I needed them . There are still nice helpful people out there .
Add a barb fitting to the gas tank for the return line.
Use brass barb with a threaded male end and drill right next to the cap. Use some plumbers tape and make sure that your male threaded end is tapered. Good luck that should work for you. Also put a peice of thin rubber between tank and pump
Drill and tap the tank to except a hose barb pipe fitting
I'd definitely replace the oil filter the paper element turns to dust if left in for too many years!
You need to run actual fuel line. Those are more for vacuum hoses
Love the build progress! Keep grinding Migs! As far as the return line, I would personally drill a hole towards the top of the gas tank and JB weld a fitting to accept that size of hose. I think drilling it into the cap would cause problems in the future.
The gasoline will eat away at the jb weld
Seth Krahn from what I’ve tested jb will hold up to gasoline. I’ve used it on gas tanks and it’s still holding fine
Seth Krahn In some cases yes but I just made a gas tank out of a aluminium water bottle with JB weld and it’s holding up great, I think it just needs to be mixed right and the surfaces need good prep
My bad then lol
Seth Krahn lol your good, just sharing my experience
Yoo CARS AND CAMERAS USED 2 carbs from GO POWERSPORTS its half the price. Watch there video
yeah but that thing is so under powered and sounds like literal shit cause of the half assed tuning they did.....
You need a bigger fuel tank man!! And get some decent fuel line. By the time you fill up all that fuel line your probably down half a tank. Lol 4 carbs use.more fuel than you think
Ya that tank is not going to give you more than 10 minutes!
not to hate or anything but in a streetbike engine you want to run motorcycle oil or rotella t6. it has the right additives for wet clutch systems
Bro don’t worry about it this build needs time take as much as time as you need dont rush this build I would rather wait months and this build be done right and no problems then see it built quick and break🙂 love the vids keep up the good work
Thanks for the support man! 💪🏻
I've been waiting for your video all day keep up the good work Mig's!!!!!
Thanks!!
You might want to get a bigger fuel tank
Try drilling and tapping an spot in the top of the tank and add a fitting because I've seen a few people do it that way and it has worked for them.
Moto migs you’re Doing some amazing work on that project and fixing all the flaws on the project,I enjoy watching your videos and look forward to seeing the nascart project finished.
Thanks!! I appreciate it!
i would have dies=d out laughing if you dropped your phone in the oil 15:50
I would get a hose barb and thread it to to the gas tank drill and tap a hole for the return line. Keep up the good work man
I’m assuming you read my comment last video it’s good that you took those comments into consideration without getting offended great video
A twin Mukunni carburator set up for a Honda 750 engine will work very well. Your right. It sounds like it's running on 2 cylinders.
G'day Migs I hope your using the correct motor oil for motorcycles if you use friction modified oil , your clutch will slip when under load . For the tank you should
Get a nut riveting tool , this will make it so you can , drill the top of the tank then put the threaded rivet in then tighten by squeezing the handles together this will seal it's self ,then get a threaded barb with a 90% bend the size you need for your fuel line this should help you .

And also do not use that pool hose for an air duct line there will be to much restriction and it is not big enough for that motor use 3" pvc and flare out the ends of the BBC in front
Good advice Mate.
Re-do the welds and make sure you can trust them
You should cut vents into the back window to allow the heat to escape
I was gonna say the exact same thing. I think you should get a 2-2&1/2" hole saw and do 3 or 4 rows of holes.
That’s a great idea I haven’t thought of that, thanks man!
Drill a hole in the tank and put a fiting on it to accept the fuel line
A high speed fan would also be a benifit pointing downward to push it out the back .
You could drill a hole in the tank and put the fuel line in with a rubber grommet to create a seal : )
Loving the videos keep it up i think it needs a new shifter i think just drill a hole in the tank and seal around the hose
G'day mate yeah I suggested he should make the shifter with a pivot point at the top of the shifter leaver and one at the other end where the gear leaver is .
Unsure if that's on the list , for the return line use a riveting tool and a 90%
Drill a hole in the tank and add a rubber gromet to make sure the line doesn’t pull out easy, keep on going all most done👍🏾
Good job exhaust looks close to the tank the heat off of it will be bad also you could put a 90 on pump
Also check the inside of the hose your planing on using for your naca ducts. It has to be smooth. if it's ribbed in the inside (And probably is) It will be very restrictive for that application and flow little or no air. Since the pressure is very limited.
Bruh!! I hope im wrong but did you just mount the fuel talk by the exhaust header exit? Your making a bomb my man. Keep em coming!! HAha
Run a tee fitting before the fuel pump and run the return line to it. Also make sure the fuel lines have slack they don’t need to be tight that’s just asking for them to eventually come loose.
Drain the fuel tank, drill a hole, and mount a compression fitting (something with a gasket tp prevent leaks). You might even be able to use an old petcock valve.
Don't forget to get a good quality 5 point in there I have a feeling it's gonna roll at some point
Think a bigger tank is deffo needed
Where is your fuel cell that was on the kart does it not have a return line option on it plus it would be safer also you need to run steel line as much as possible with proper rubber fuel line and clamps for safety
people have been saying ffrom day 1 to get a jumper pack. Just imagine conecting a jumper pack and starting the go kart or bike vs charging a battery for 4-6 hours, and then maybe starting it. Use your head and be smart here.
Drill a hole in the black part of the tank, and thread a brass nipple into the hole, so then the gas line can be attached to it
Plz use proper fuel line 😟, also get a bigger tank.
You could put a nipple on the tank top and have your return line attached to it.
Make sure you use Wet clutch oil if it's not already and replace the oil filter now, if the old ones been sitting that long it'll bugger up all your hard work.
Get a jumper pack, half your time is spent charging a battery 👌
Some good advice Mate !

You can drill a hole in the side of the gas tank and put a valve stem in and take out the valve core i belive standard fuel hose is the righ size to hose clamp to the valve stem and that could be your return line thats what i would do
for the return pipe put it between the fual tank and the pump with a t connector
To get it to stay in the gas cap even hot glue might work
hot glue does NOT like fuel.
You should do a crossover video with cars and cameras and have them check out the kart and ask questions about what you need to do!
What about the chocolate head studs u put in ie threaded bar ? Also plate u mounted pump on way to thin ! Why don’t you reach out to a welder get him to guide you maybe weld up jack shaft properly.its a nice cart but you have bodged it up bad
Get a fitting to weld in tank
For the fuel system you can drill a hole and weld a bung hole kinda like and o2 sensor and screw a fitting in and attatch a fuel line.
K Z obviously
@K Z yeah that's true , I suggested he use threaded riveting tool that will seal it's self , then there's no chance of explosion , and little bits of Migsy all over the work shop , or fireball Migsy running around the back yard stop drop & rolling . Mal.
Yo migs you should have welded it in stead of drilling holes through the frame
@K Z he needs mounting lessons, and you need some grammar lessons
For the return line drill a hole in the gas cap and put a gromet in the hole that holds the pipe
I like how the NASCAR its coming out.just take your time.the only thing i cud recommend its get your self some atv ramps at harborfreight so u do struggle as much .good vid
Almost a 100k subs!!! 👌🏽
Drill and tap the tanks for the return line
Drill a hole in the fuel tank for the return line and then silicone around it
I would say for the gas tank use a 1/4" barb to 3/8" hex fitting with a nut on the back
Build an awning on the front of your little shed , more room . And no fumes .
Look okay, I am not hating but we have been making major progress for a year
I would recommend a new filter, the oil might not look extremely bad I personally would recommend it to get more life out of this engine. I think you should let it sit and run for about 20-30 min and drain that oil that you just put in so you can clear out all the old mucky oil and throw on a new filter and put some full synthetic 10w-40 In with a new filter that is meant for full synthetic and let it sit and run for 10 min or so with the new oil then after 3,000 miles replace the oil again but keep it full synthetic, once you switch to full synthetic you don’t want to switch back and forth between regular and synthetic. That’s what I recommend for a clean flush out of that old gross oil. :)
You have the hose for the the NACA ducts but do you have the actual Duct? You can order those pretty cheap too.
the pressure regulator is has fuel in line out and return is they a vacume pipe needed to manifold to know when to regulate or is it just like an air compresser would use with the problem you had i wounder if that the problem or maybe the fuel pump is not upto it another idea is a fuel pump for a motor cycle they have a live a neg and a feed wire to the live wire of coil number one to know when to pump and this is how they regulate when the engine was running i could see air traverling up the feed to the carbs so something is not set right and drawing in air
Just drill into the gas cap and put a rubber grommet on the line and and it should seal well in the cap
You could drill a hole in ur gas tank put a fitting in and jb weld it in or gasket maker would hold it in
Get a bigger gas tank with a return line on the top, that small tank will keep running out every 15 mins...
Great vid
What happend to the solex?
Put a brass nipple on the cap and a hose clamp or a zip tie
Weld a bung to the top of the gas tank for return
james edmiston plz don’t make him weld anything and definitely not the gas tank
LOL thats a dead head holley style regulator not a bypass regulator. It has one inlet and 2 outlets . Commonly used on carbs with 2 float bowels. It is not good for low volume because once it shuts the flow it dead heads the pump. You maybe able to rig up one outlet as a leak to avoid dead heading the pump but you will give up to much volume during high fuel demand. Invest in a bypass regulator or try it with no regulator. Those cheap inline pumps come in different pressures maybe find one with 3-4 psi.
the 4 carb setup works great , you just dont know what youre doing
Drill a hole on the gas tank towards the top Tethlon tape the end of a nipple and the screw it in
What do u work as
just plug the return line its not needed, i have run the same setup on a cb750 when i ran alcohol, also you bought the wrong pump, it makes to much pressure, the right pump doesn't need a regulator, but having said that you don't need a pump, just mount a gas tank above the engine, the needle and seat in your carbs are for gravity feed.
Idk how well braided fuel line is but I'd try that so it doesn't crack or melt
Service the whole thing , and you might think of a bigger tank , a plastic one could be your best bet due to the size and weight
It is only running on 2or3 cylinders and the carbs need to come off be cleaned and synched.
Drill a hole into the actual gas tank and use a metal valve stem for like a vehicle and put it in there it won't go anywhere and you can put your liner as you return
use motorcycle oil.
Just get a connector and put the return line into the fuel line! Near the start of the line!
Doesn’t work that way
12oclock Quan it could-like a closed loop system. Just running around in a circle
Still will like because I want to see this project finished but you sure there's going to be progress all you did was change fluids and check stuff.
Weld a metal adapter into the gas cap for the line
Migs check out the cars and camera channel with the 4 into 2 carbs they did it on their cross cart.
Drill a hole in tank and then put a big boden connector in there
Try putting a fitting on the gas cap if that doesn’t work try gasket make gas gas resistant
Always keep the battery charge all the time when you work on the half nas car man
On the fuel pump just put a cap on the overflow and then the gas will flow evenly on the fuel line !!!!!!!
That big engine looks good but how fast will it go
Get a battery tinder and keep it on it. It will always be charged
Empty gas tank drill and tap you a hole for a barb fitting for return
Run a simple tee fitting before the pump, connect tank, pump input, and return on the tee, and use actual fuel lines, absolutely scares me your trying to be a firefighter... 😲 your wiring, your fuel system, lack of exhaust heat shield. Again so many more issues...
Just put a T fitting before the fuel regulator for the return
I don't think you need a return line just put about 5 psi to it and it should be fine they say a carb can handle around 8 psi
Video #203 still sitting in shed not working 😂
And really really all he does is run his mouth ..i really really think hes on meth
Drill and tap a barb fitting in the top of your tank and boom... you got a return.
Erik Young the gas tank walls are too thin u can’t tap it
That's true , use a thread figuring tool .
Fuck Spell check , riveting tool
Malcolm Davis that would be the best due to his welding skills being very novice
Buy a new battery if you have a issue with the battery keep grinding MIGs its almost done
You drill the hole 1 size smaller than the hose it’s the same concept as a weed eater I’ve done it before it will be fine
Your need to use motor cycle oil
Yes , nothing like clutch slip using friction modified oils , bike oils for bikes , I learnt this the hard way , used the wrong oil on my Vtx 1300 and stuffed the clutch plates , that one cost me quite a bit because I was on a road trip when I did it , had to find a Bike shop that had the parts on the shelf , and in Australia that's not an easy thing to do , I had to go 150 miles out of my way ,which isn't that far really , Oz is a big place and Honda dealers are far and few between . I did the swap in a motel car park with minimal tools the motel owner had ,he was a big help though running around getting parts when I needed them . There are still nice helpful people out there .
Weld a fitting to the gas cap
Get a threaded Barb and drill a hole into gas tank and thread it into it
Drill a hole in the gas tank and put a barbed fitting on
hype
Ok the ducts your gonna use pretty sure that’s I pool cleaner hose and someone has ripped you off but oh well
Get a Metal hose splice drill a hole in the tank and weld it in
Throw that tank away, buy you a 1-3 gal fuel cell, bemuch better off
Drill a hole in the gas cap and epoxy it or silicone it into place
Steven Perkins exactly
