i just got a go kart that has been sitting for two years. it won't start. i pulled the spark plug and pulled the string, no spark. i put a new spark plug in, still no spark. i held the live wire with my fingers to see if there was anything, and i felt a spark. however, every time i attached it to the plug, nothing.
so i figure weak spark. i take apart the whole string start thing on the side of the thing looking for the points, i then realize the points are outside under a little metal covering. i put it all back together, halfassedly, but it still pulls enough for a start. i found the points, cleaned them. still nothing. now there is no spark at all. i didn't put two screws back on the big fan thing that's connected to the crank shaft, that's the only thing i can remember not doing when putting it all back together.
what can i do to get this thing to run?
also, i was told it needs a new clutch. how and where is the clutch on a go kart???
thanks!!!!!
