Harbor Freight, if you don't pick up this kid as a spokesperson / commercial "actor", you have missed out on some freaking great commercials. Did you hear him marketing department? C'MON!!!
That comment made me chuckle. As parents, we need to be aware how we approach life. The little ones are watching. I believe these kids are in good shape.
Best Under 18 mechanic on UA-cam. I love your dad's channel and I am beginning to fall in love with yours as well young man. Keep up the good work. I'll be recommending your channel to all my friends. Superb work.
I'm only five minutes into the video, but did you see Sasquatch Junior grab that go kart and drag it out as well as the new engine in the box? That's called "farm strength"!!! 😂😂😂 Just like Dad!!! They're all "farm strong"!!! And that's a good thing, not a derogatory thing!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅
You Sir are showing me what I did in the 70s as a kid that wanted to go faster! You can do anything that you are passionate about and have thousands of people to help you.. Make the most of School and remember what's important. 😀
A pair of pliers doesn't fall far from the tool box. I really enjoy your channel & get as many laughs watching you as I do your dad. Keep the videos coming, Bentley.
Chain joiner clips we call a fish , they swim forward , yours was swimin backward little buddy . Thats why it was letting go . Keep up with the cool videos Derek junior 👍
Bentley your the son I never had. Love your Dad's Chanel and love yours. Keep up the good work. I'm sure your an inspiration to many many kids your age.
Well done. How I got started. Went on to start NOS. And later ran Arias pistons and race engines. Derrick you are raising a great young man. Be proud!!
Little grip I did'nt know they made a racing version of that engine so you taught a 68 yr. Old man something new so thanks and great video ! Kudos Kiddo ! KEEP IT UP !!!!😊😊😊
At the end of the day when you put your cart away spray some WD-40 on the exhaust pipe and muffler and it will keep it from rusting and it will turn blue and stay nice looking, have a good weekend SEE YA!!
Not much can match the satisfaction of hearing a new motor fire up for the first time. Good work Bentley. One thing I'd suggest would be to rotate the pull start back (if that's possible) so you (or a helper) can reach it easier.
You might have to tinker with the idle and mixture screws. Remember to check your plug to see how rich or lean it's running after you drive it some. Keep up the great work little man and be safe with the extra horse powers!
On your old engine the gas tank is higher than the carb and is gravity feed. Your pulse pump is so the tank can be mounted most anywhere, even below the carb. As the engine runs the pulse pump operates on pulses from the engine crankcase as the piston moves up and down. These pulses pull gas from the tank and pushes it to the carb. If you use the tank off the old engine and mount it on top of the engine like the old one, you won't need the pump.
Bentley a few things that you should do so it's done right... the silver tip with the threaded bottom is a pulse fitting it screws into the top oil fill hole on the engine then a hose runs from it to the fuel pump to cause vacuum and pull the fuel through the pump and into the carb... the tank should ideally be mounted to the floor under the steering upright and shaft with the hose running up to the fuel pump then one hose from pump to carb... the clutch can be changed by taking the guts out of both and putting the new guts in the old clutch basket.. and still be able to use the same size chain with a better clutch... I ran predator engines on dirt oval racing karts and won a couple championships with them and have put together a few of them in my time... hope the advice helps... keep up the good work
Well done young man your doing great.. keep listening to your farther young sir a guy is very smart and extremely good at what he does pay attention to him and everything he shows you ok your well on your way to an extremely great future and you'll do great things so keep one Earth pounder in front of the other and keep doing what your doing I'm proud of you
Bentley, you're a real chip off the old block! In fact- your delivery is even more informative than your dad's... and every bit as entertaining. Well done!👍
Hey Bentley you can remove the snap ring clips off of both of them to swap those outer clutch Bell to the right size one. That way you can still use it on that engine. Try to put the clutch that you put on the new engine. If it fits the same. The Bell will enter change out by that snap ring clip. You'll need snap ring pliers.,or tool for that procedure and process of removing and reinstalling it over onto your new clutch pack. A very big secret on that part to. Remove it slowly and do not tamper with the springs. Then it should slide back over that pack slowly again until it's over the springs and clutch shoes again. Just reinstall the snap ring into place. That part should work if they are the same diameter crankshaft check with A ruler.,or tape measure either one of those. To be able to get the right width of both crankshafts on both engines those engines.
Great video - and lots of energy. Every week you're getting better. As noted elsewhere, try rotating the recoil starter 180 degrees so the rope comes out the bottom in back.
Awesome job Kiddo!! Apple doesn't fall far from the roof or something like that. Notice you were having a hard time getting that new motor started. Check valve clearance if you haven't already. Can't wait to see you rip that thing. Just be careful.. 👍
Glad you learned a valuable lesson....one that most adults have yet to learn: Doing burnouts is the single dumbest thing you can do to ANY vehicle, regardless of make, model or age.
Two thoughts, I was the same almost 50 years ago and I wouldn't wait to try it. I would have checked to see if the driven end of the clutch would fit the new driving side so I could use the old chain and with the pulse pump I would have mounted the tank someplace else, gravity not needed. I would use the support brackets for the exhaust just to stop the tuning fork action. My engine was an old iron 3.5 hp Briggs. Yep, I am an old fart!!
Audio tip: For the wind noise on the microphone, you can put what's called a "dead cat" on there (yep, that's the technical term). It's basically a chunk of synthetic fur that makes the wind not so harsh on the mic port. An alternative to buying one, (they are rather inexpensive really) is to use an old furry stuffed animal or something. Cut out a 1/2 inch to 1 inch patch of the fur, then cut a round hole in the fabric that holds the fur together. Either use velcro, or double sided tape to stick it on top of the mic hole. (make sure to cut hole for mic in the velcro/double sided tape as well.) Great video! The wind noise wasn't even that bad really, just for future reference use when you're rippin' down the trail. It's been hot here in Montana as well. Stay cool out there if ya can!
AWESOME BAILEY!!! GET SOME!! That's right! Love the whole video bud. You're gonna have to lock down those engine mount bolts there yet too. She's gonna RRRRRIP! YEA!!
C’mon Derek. You trust the kid to drive and cut hay on his own, you could at least trust him with his own pocket knife to cut tape with. Not that I haven’t used my fair share of shop tools to cut tape with also. lol 😂
Cool beans. I'd love to get an engine like that! I'd do something with that exhaust though, either modify it to come out at a different angle, or replace with a different one altogether... It sticks out to the side way too much. I'd hate to see someone zipping through the woods and smack the exhaust off a tree or something. That wouldn't be good! 😬
You can break-in your engine at any speed ABOVE idle, but not at idle. The break-in process may occur faster if the engine is operated at varying loads and speeds. It is recommended that an engine not be operated continuously at full load during the initial hours of operation. You dad should have mentioned you this, as he has taught you well thus far, Well done Bentley! You make us all proud....and a fellar sure hopes you tighten up those engine bolts (Once you get your chain figured out.) 🏎 🏁 p.s. I seriously doubt that is a tuned exhaust. Personally I would cut away the elbow and about four inches back (Towards the engine) to give you a nice looking pipe/exhaust that isn't hanging out the side in left field in the open like that, but your choice...to me if you could talk your pops into it, I would cut it and rotate it up and re-weld the tube..would give it old school sand rail type header. But it's your ride dude! 😉
Hi Bently nice video 📹 and workmanship!!! Try wearing a Sprite Shirt when You Drive it it goes faster !!! Or a 7 up stocker work uniform green one heads up 7up
good job on the upgrade there. cool history on the cart. little advice on masterlinks always put the clips on so the u is facing in the direction of chain rotation. that way they won't pop off under high load. chain flying apart is never a good time lol shiny side up rubber side down. do not reverse!!!
Yeah seriously, he is going to need a big ole' set of knobbies on that one wheel drive with that kind of ponies!! Perhaps that old tractor that bit the bullet?
Absolutely enjoy these videos Bentley, did as your doing when your age. Keep it up . Now you should research the bolt on tork converter. Something I tried and increased the tork . Great tire melting burn outs
You need to turn your muffler so that the positioning of your clamp is below the the muffler. Just makes it look neater. Your doing a good job Bentley. Dad taught you well.
Hey bud you can take the pull cord shroud off and re position it so that the pull cord it facing twords the back of the kart making it easier to get to . With the design you won't have to worry about the recoil spring mechanism unspooling it is all encased in the shroud so that you are able to reposition that pull cord shroud. Great job little man I bet your dad so proud of you. My daughter and I really enjoy yours and your pop's channels we can't wait till the next. Keep focused on school and we will all be here when the next video drops . God bless you and yours .
Harbor Freight, if you don't pick up this kid as a spokesperson / commercial "actor", you have missed out on some freaking great commercials. Did you hear him marketing department? C'MON!!!
Man, you ain't kidding. Anyone could sponsor this guy. Even every three weeks, you will get yo monies worth. We are all watching...c'mon
Yeah but didn’t dad call em hobo freight a bunch of times? 😂😂
@@CBRHurricane6 We all do... They do sometimes.. LOL, it's a Nickname, not an insult.
They definitely need him!!!
Harbor Freight, This Kid would be a very Valuable Asset to your Company. Sponsorship well Deserved
“A guy also picked up a performance kit for it.” Just like dad. Love what you guys do! Keep it up!
JUST like dad LOL
Especially when he threw away the "Safety Directions" LOL!!
@@friguy4444 Yup....that one got me too! LMFAO
"Help me understand".....another classic Derek gem.
That comment made me chuckle. As parents, we need to be aware how we approach life. The little ones are watching. I believe these kids are in good shape.
Well done Bentley. You’ve got a lot of dads out here feeling really proud of you. Your hard work pays off buddy.
It’s nice to see kids learning how to work on their stuff and not setting in the house playing video games
Best Under 18 mechanic on UA-cam. I love your dad's channel and I am beginning to fall in love with yours as well young man. Keep up the good work. I'll be recommending your channel to all my friends. Superb work.
Absolutely agree 💯
Ralphie and wawa need to be in the running also.
Awesome my little buddy. You are a natural at engines and stuff like your day!!! Keep up the good work!!!
What about giuseppe's garage???
Check them out
I'm only five minutes into the video, but did you see Sasquatch Junior grab that go kart and drag it out as well as the new engine in the box? That's called "farm strength"!!! 😂😂😂 Just like Dad!!! They're all "farm strong"!!! And that's a good thing, not a derogatory thing!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅
"It's starting to get dark and I need a root beer"
:)
Your work area tools and your cabinet are sooo much more organized than your dads!!!
The smile on your face when you got it running...priceless.
Love what you do young man! You definitely have a bright future! Keep following your dad's footsteps, he's leading you the way to success!
'Float not floating" 😂😂😂😂 totally enjoy watching you with your way through these projects. Your future is limitless. Keep it up!! 💪🏻👍🏻
And swapping, not swaping. ;)
When you tossed the safety instructions, I was so proud. Just like dad
Blowing up a newly upgraded engine is excessive...PERFECT!!! Keep it up LGG!
You Sir are showing me what I did in the 70s as a kid that wanted to go faster! You can do anything that you are passionate about and have thousands of people to help you.. Make the most of School and remember what's important. 😀

Bentley, you are truly a chip off the old block, I enjoy watching you tackle your projects, keep putting out your great entertainment
Bentley, you're a all American boy ! Keep up the hard work. 🇺🇸
Well done Bentley a great job! You both must be very proud Jessica and Derek...👍
What a great video. Talented and confident young man. Raised right, Praised right. You’re going places, kid!
"This is the owner's manual and safety instructions, don't need this"...gives it a toss out of sight.. You go buddy! (But be safe!)
Like Father,like son. Good show you got going. This is what an American Family looks like,run by a believing mom and dad.bravo Bieris
Parents, give your kids a gift and hook them up with Bentley.
Heck yeah bud. Tell the old man to show you where the idle screw is on the fuel make it happener. You're living the dream kid, believe me.
Just like your dad. I know parents are proud of you boys. Hope to see you out doing revivals with your dad when school isn't keeping you busy.
Excellent, entertaining video from an exceptional young feller in the tradition of the old man.
Absolute dude !!!. If a companies do not get behind this young pup they will regret it. Keep it up great channel ✌️✌️
We always knew that no matter what engine we had, we wanted a bigger one with more power.
That motor is crazy crazy fast love it be safe B
Little grip I did'nt know they made a racing version of that engine so you taught a 68 yr. Old man something new so thanks and great video ! Kudos Kiddo ! KEEP IT UP !!!!😊😊😊
"A Guy picked up...."....Perfect....like Father, like Son....I love it Bentley!
Bentley's confidence and knowledge grows with each video. Great job!
At the end of the day when you put your cart away spray some WD-40 on the exhaust pipe and muffler and it will keep it from rusting and it will turn blue and stay nice looking, have a good weekend SEE YA!!
I loved you threw the owners manual aside. Such a Dad move.
Bentley, you know what you're doing when it comes to anything go-cart related 👽💯💣go for it!!
Not much can match the satisfaction of hearing a new motor fire up for the first time. Good work Bentley.
One thing I'd suggest would be to rotate the pull start back (if that's possible) so you (or a helper) can reach it easier.
That is entirely adjustable, I kinda cringed as he pulled it backwards as well...rope don't tend to last to long when ya do that.
@@repaid1 So true!
Yeah, $500 for the engine and performance kit ain't exactly cheap for anyone..... especially in this economy! Good job Bentley! 💙👊🏼
If I could like this video more then once, I would spend the rest of the day smashing that button. Good job man! Entertaining and fun!!
Keep those videos coming, Bentley. You're doing a great job! Hope this helps a little.
I really appreciate this it'll go to a project
A chrome valve cover and air cleaner, would only be icing on the cake!
"Here is our owners manual......and safety instructions" tosses it away, "we don't need that!!" Chip off the old block right there, lol. LOVE IT!!!
“And then a guy” Like father like son. I Love It!!! Keep it goin Little Grip !!!
Bentley, I really enjoy your channel! Thanks! 👍👍👍
You might have to tinker with the idle and mixture screws. Remember to check your plug to see how rich or lean it's running after you drive it some. Keep up the great work little man and be safe with the extra horse powers!
I always get a bunch of, "thing-a-ma-jigs", "whatchamacallits", and "whoseywhatsits" in all my new parts kits also. 😂

He mentioned that in the video... Didn't watch it did ya.. 😅
@@emilymiller1853 yes I watched the video. At one point he mounted the pump, then in the next he had the gas tank mounted. No explanation as to why.
I had to laugh when you whizzed those instructions across the garage. 😂. Great job.
Harbor Freight with the layup, Bradley with the score!
Yeah the apple didn't fall far from the tree! He definitely has his dad's personality and gift for the camera. Good stuff
Looks like his mom, got the boots and size of daddy’s hands with some of that farmer boy strength.
Good job buddy! That Go cart is going to rip!

Bentley, you're a real chip off the old block! In fact- your delivery is even more informative than your dad's... and every bit as entertaining. Well done!👍
Looks good! Probably gonna need to brace that header. You can also remove it, pack it full of sand, heat it up and bend it without kinking the pipe
Another awesome video Bentley. I think your idea of fixing the old engine is a great idea, more experience under your belt.
You're dad must be very proud of you being into cars. Keep it up little guy.

So cool that your dad let you set up a base of operations in the new barn! LGG is now part of my weekly content watching! You inspire an old feller!
Good job, Bentley. The biggest motor i ever had on my go karts was an 8hp Briggs. That exhaust sounds good. I can't wait to see it rip.

My Dad couldn't get it running and that is "Saying Somethin!" LOL....Derek has Good kids.
Finds "Safety Instructions"- tosses 'em!! The ol apple doesnt fall far from the barn door!

When he said I have to cancel that carb order 30 bucks I lost it . This kid is going places.😅😅😅

Dan from Australia 🌏 well done buddy.loved this content .The 🍎 doesn't fall far from the tree
Luv it Ben! So glad you came back to this. I had a cart in the 60's that would do 50's, scary.
GIT SUM!
I saw that box sitting on the floor of VGG last YT post. Very cool.
Keep up the great work young man
Little man you certainly have the gift and you are doing a great job with it keep it up
this kids intro so reminds me of my trapper keeper i had in 1988
You need to turn your muffler so that the positioning of your clamp is below the the muffler. Just makes it look neater. Your doing a good job Bentley. Dad taught you well.
I think you should do a tear down video on the old engine to see where things went wrong! Keep up the great work!
Right on little grip! Might need to save up for tires she sounds like a tire burner!
Great job figuring out how to mount it and get it running. 😊
Sir, you’re a class act. Top shelf viewing. 👍🏻✌🏻👌🏻
Awesome Job Bentley! Can't wait to see you ripping around on it. Great Build and Video! Thank You .
