  • What You Didn't Know About Go Kart Engines
    Go kart engines are marvels of manufacturing. When you understand some of the similarities and differences between different engines, you'll be able to choose the go kart you've always wanted.

    Governors for safety
    Of course, safety should always be a first concern. For this reason, most go kart engines have governors which are mechanical devices that are incorporated into the engine to ensure that the go kart will not exceed a predetermined speed. An average go kart engine will have 6.5 horsepower and 150cc. It's never a good idea to modify a go kart to increase its speed potential. The go kart's handling will most likely be negatively altered, causing instability and loss of control.

    Two-stroke go kart engines
    Some go kart engines are two-stroke engines. Two-stroke engines, which use unleaded fuel, have some great advantages. For instance, a two-stroke engine has a simple build and is lighter weight because it doesn't have any valves. Also, unlike the four-stroke engine, which fires on alternate revolutions, two-stroke engines fire on each revolution; this provides considerable power enhancement. In essence, two-stroke engines have more impending power without taking up more space or adding more weight; so two-stroke go kart engines are simpler engines, and cost less to produce.

    Four-stroke go kart engines
    Go kart engines with a four-stroke combustion cycle provide certain benefits as well. Four-stroke go kart engines also use unleaded fuel, but much more efficiently than two-stroke engines, making it possible to get more miles to the gallon. Also, four-stroke engines cause less pollution than two-stroke engines because they do not combust oil like two-stroke engines. Also, you'll most likely get a longer lifespan from a four-stroke engine, due to its part-protecting lubrication system. As for size and weight, manufacturers of go kart engines constantly seek to develop four-stroke engines that are much lighter and smaller, like two-stroke engines.

    Go kart engines are the powerhouses behind the fun. Now get going!
