Review on 🏎️ 218353A MOOSUN Go Kart Torque Converter by Jesus Gallagher

Revainrating 3 out of 5

But the Coleman CT200-ex will not work.

The mainshaft is designed for a 3/4" keyway instead of the key between it and the shaft, unlike the output shaft it needed a key. I used a 5/8-3/4 adapter , but where the adapter uses a wrench that connects it to a 5/8 shaft, which you can't use because the wrench needed interferes with the small wrench built into the primary clutch. It's also for mounting a bolt different size It on the crank and the crank and "1 bolt holder" are specially designed for use with a bolt to attach to the 3/4" shaft. The cover mounting holes protrude from the back of the plate and also make contact with the fan cover on the ct200-ex so they need to be removed which reduces airflow to that part of the cylinder/head which is also not a good thing on a modern ct200 -ex. Crankshaft 3/4 ($28 and an hour of work) and had trouble aligning the sprocket on the driven shaft and ct200u-ex, had to buy front and rear shaft spacers to align the pulleys and position them fairly evenly on the chain does not bite the edge of the driven pulley. This resulted in so little thread remaining on the driven shaft that I'm not sure the nuts can stay in place. Even with the best crank, Mod2 cheat cam, exhaust/muffler and 18-pound valve springs, the full engine removal adjuster can't overwhelm the high CVT ratio. I ordered 8 tooth and 9 tooth sprockets to help the engine a bit to rev up. He struggles to accelerate to speeds over 60 km/h. I will increase the time in the hope that this will help as well. The belt that came with the kit was scattering pieces and dust everywhere, it was awful. Running belt blackhorse atm and much better.

Pros
  • Heavy duty construction
Cons
  • No automatic
