![]() ![]() Wipe it off with a dry cloth, and if the black wipes right off, maybe with the cloth around the tip of a screwdriver, it's just soot and it's not fouled anymore then. That spark plug may look carbon fouled, but it may just be soot coated from a rich mixture like Karttech said. It'll stay right there because of the nylon, that's what they're made for, so you don't bind much less crush a bearing trying to get a common nut tight enough not to back out.ฤก" Axle Nut | 400050 | BMI Karts And Parts You just run them down snug but with the bearing still able to spin freely. ![]() Axle nuts are thin nuts with fine threads and a nylon insert, a nylock nut. You don't have to use a ton of torque on those nuts on the shaft if you're using axle nuts. Is that "ring" that popped out a snap-ring with 2 little holes for snap-ring pliers? And it is loose, maybe a half link would fit and fix that. Get off of your anti-master link high horse and use a master link and/or a half link to tie the chain together. If the link can't flap like a one-wing-dove when you shake it, the link's bad. I got it from using a crap chainbreaker that bent a couple of links that weren't even any of the links being removed. You get those tight link connections (bumps) from poorly aligned plates/rollers/pins altogether. I am going to have to use one of the older bearings now. I must have tightened down too much so, here's my question: Something else I did wrong? How much torque should I have used to tighten down the outside nut? ![]() After inspecting, I found that the little metal ring around the left bearing had popped off and part of the bearing had broken and the rest was inside the shaft mount. Then something metallic fell from the shaft and I stopped puzzled. I then grabbed my impact and tapped on it a couple times. Then used a spacer after the sprocket and then the driven and then another spacer and the nut. When assembling the driven, I needed 2 spacer washers between the sprocket and bearing to appropriately line the chain up. Yesterday, despite not being sure of the chain, I decided to go ahead and continue assembling to attempt in testing out everything. Oil was changed when I pulled the cart last week. I did replace the plug, but would like to correct the any issue that could be being caused. What should I do and how can I tell them the apart? I don't know what either means. I ended up pulling my spark plug and found it to have (according to GKS) either Carbon Fouling or Oil Fouling. (I messed up twice in the process of doing a lot of learning!) Took a lot of patience and going slow to ensure I wasn't bending anything but I was able to add 2 links this way. This is how I was able to add the pins back with the chain breaker. Hopefully, one day someone else will be looking for some tips, and these pics will come in handy on how I added links to get the size I needed. ![]()
