Please Help!!!!!
My son and I are on our second build. We decided to put anti vibration motor mounts on it,(similar to those described on this forum). We also fabricated a new Idler mounting bracket.
That said, It runs great. occasionally, when the clutch is released and re-engaged, the chain seems to bind up on the engine sprocket (inside the cover).
I look down the chain ( cheap Chinese chain), it is not exactly straight. it has a few waves in it. Could this be the problem.
As near as I can tell the chain, engine sprocket and wheel sprocket are in-line. Could the engine be moving enough sideways to cause this to happen. It does flex slightly to the sides due to rubber mounts.
Can anyone give a couple of dumb grease monkeys some advice?
Thanks,
