G1 $200 and Counting
I'm a Newbie on here, as a father son project we just bought a G1 Cart. Trying to find an engine for it. I live near Toronto, Ontario any idea where to start looking.

Re: G1 $200 and Counting
G1 is a two stroke motor so the rear end has no reverse gear. You need to stick with another 2 stroke in order to have a reverse. I have heard of snowmobile engines being used in them. What about the possibility of refurbishing the old motor? That would be a good F/S project?

Re: G1 $200 and Counting
Not sure about rebuild - the previous guy tried to pry the clutch off the crank and took a chip outta the clutch and cracked the oil pump cover ! I saw on here a Bravo 250 engine will run in reverse, may go that route, but the son half of the project wants to drive it - SOON !

Re: G1 $200 and Counting
Ok gotta another motor for it - now I have 2 clutches to choose from, one is quite a bit larger than the other. Which one should I use. I also seem to be missing the motor mounts, anyone have the measurements for them ??

Re: G1 $200 and Counting
They are the same diameter and the inboard side is the the same, the outboard sides are quite a bit different. They both are in the parts manual - I guess they just fit different years ! I thought I remember seeing that one was better than the other ?

Re: G1 $200 and Counting
Sure Dave - it sounds like I can shim the spring on the older clutch, so like keep that one and sell you the gold coloured one - the inboard side has a chip outta the v-pulley for the starter, doesn't seem to affect the operation of it tho !
