Re: 1986 columbia cart
I installed new rings and gained a lot of power but my rings were worn out and only had 65# compression. I would find out why you have poor performance then take remedial action.

Re: 1986 columbia cart
I think the compression is good. I know that would be perfect on the older carts but I'm not sure on the late model engine. You might check timing.

Re: 1986 columbia cart
If the HD muffler is a lot bigger you may not have the back pressure you need on a 2 cycle.

Re: 1986 columbia cart
It will be to big and tuned for to high a rpm, you could put a smaller stinger in it and shorten the head pipe and try it.

Re: 1986 columbia cart
Someone could have moved the timing adjuatment. Just because it is electronic dous not mean it is not adjustable!
