I get it, turn counterclockwise will decrease, turn clockwise will increase. My question is what exactly am i increasing or decreasing? Is it clutch pressure? In many videos i've seen it's always "turn counterclockwise" until you feel resistance then back off. Why is it always to decrease?
I'm just curious as to what exactly is going on when i turn that screw right or left. And, since there's no manual clutch to engage or disengage, what is going on inside?
Reason why i'm asking is while going down a hill in 1st gear, it appears to pops out of gear, but no neutral light, and if i stop, it's in 1st gear still. BUT, (always a but) if the engine is warmed up, it stays in 1st gear. The hill is too steep to use any other gear, so 1st with the brakes is the only way to go down.

Hello everyone. This is a Go Cart and not a typical "ATV" but it has an engine so I'm hoping someone can help me. It's a Helix FTX with a Manco 150cc engine. The engine will start and idle for awhile, but will not take even a small touch of throttle. Stalls. It seems to take throttle and rev up when you first start it cold, but in just a minute, it will not take any throttle. I've replaced the Fuel valve/Pump on the fuel tank with no joy. It's a nice little cart, but without a workable engine, it's a boat anchor. I'm not dumb when it comes to small engines, but this one has me stumped. I'm running out of options.
I'll mention that while it is idling, it will sort of "cough" every 6 or 8 seconds and then recover and idle again. Eventually one of those "coughs" causes it to stall. It will start back up pretty easily, but as I said, it absolutely will not take any throttle and then it will cough and stall a minute later. I thought it could be timing, but there is no "adjustment" for timing on this engine. I downloaded the user manual and it mentions nothing about timing and is pretty much useless as a service guide. It just shows the basics. I'm attaching the manual so you can get an idea of the machine I'm dealing with.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Don

I'm repairing a 96 Timberwolf 2x4. Many years ago a dog chewed the wires that go from stator to the rectifier/regulator, and I've had to use the pull start ever since. Ive since lost the plug for the stator and on the wiring harness side. I'm ordering a new stator that will also come with the female plug that I need to fix it on the wiring harness side, but I have no clue in what position to put those 3 white wires(ones I'm holding with electrical tape on them) back into the new plug. Since they're all the same color, does it matter? Any info on this or pictures anyone has of their own will be very much appreciated.

I recently read an article about restoring or at least improving the looks of faded and discolored plastic body parts. In the article it suggested using a 50/50 mixture of boiled linseed oil and paint thinner. You mix it up and apply it with a brush or rag to rub it in and remove the oxidation. I curious to find out if anyone has had experience with doing this and what was their short/long term results of doing so. I would hate to try it and find out that a few weeks/months down the road my plastic body parts self destruct.
