Rev Limiter

Do they make a rev limiter that kills the ignition for small engines?

Look over at some mini dragbike sites or for jr dragsters

What is your desired max rpm?

Typically clone engines have a hard time revving past 6k on the stock cam.

Really just trying to get some kind of limit for the kids. Other than a throttle limit.

Gotcha!

In that case, might consider just leaving the factory 3600rpm governor on it.

You could make a throttle limiter. Either a piece of wood under the accelerator or a clamp on the cable. Pretty low tech, but it keeps the speed down. I've done both and they work out pretty good. Atv's use the same idea, except it's a bolt on the thumb throttle that limits the travel of the throttle cable. You could modify your throttle linkage the same way, or use a bolt on the gas pedal, just extend it out when the kids drive it.

Or put a clamp on the throttle cable at the carb you can move, though the cart will still go faster down a hill or long straight. The stock governor off the trans works best as its limited via cart speed not engine rpm.
