Hey, just bought the same year model CRG pre evo 125. I'm new to karts so could you answer some questions for a noob? Mine smokes like that on start up running 25ml oil per litre. Is that normal? What temperature do you get it up to before you take it out on the track? I get a small trickle of oil running down the back of the motor where the header / exhaust connection is. Is that normal? I took the restrictor out. what main jet would you recommend for sea level in sydney? It's difficult to adjust the mixture and idle screw. Is that normal? Thanks
Mine always smoked and I did 20ml per litre. Maybe try that ratio. Unsure of Sydney sider jet settings but I've smashed Eastern Creek Kart track back in the day when I lived there. My engine seeped a little oil over a days full thrash. Facepalm I used that to polish the exhaust. Send it brah 🤟🏻
got a micro max for my kid (used). it worked fine. parked for about 2 months now it wont idle. dies very easily. tried battery. only starts with choke. tips?
Is it the same fuel that's been in there? Clean out the fuel and carb put fresh fuel in.. Make sure battery is fully charged on it too. Remember to prime fuel system too before firing up. 👍🏻
Love it. Especially in the wet. My mate races nationally has a Tony Kart and said its way better than his in the wet. I'm also faster than him in it. Alas lockdowns etc stopped me racing. She's in hibernation.
It was old fuel too I remember back then.. Had been in tank and didn't drain it. I used to burn it off in the truck yard in the middle of the night being a night semi driver.

How do you like your CRG kart chassis.
Love it. Especially in the wet. My mate races nationally has a Tony Kart and said its way better than his in the wet. I'm also faster than him in it. Alas lockdowns etc stopped me racing. She's in hibernation.
is that a pre EVO?
It is boss.. The original engine. Got decent results with it pre lockdown. Haven't raced since.
Maybe to much oil mixture in fuel. ?
