    Tote Gote brakes

    Is there anyone who makes these? The model they came off of was a trail skeeter, and the company who made em was schwinn.

    What's this lever do?

    Mine doesn't seem to do that. Can I get rid of it? Or is it attached to the head in a specific way?

    What's this lever do?

    I see this commonly placed of 3.5hp briggs engines. What's it for? A kill switch?

    Am I as stupid as I think I am?

    I dont want to ask this, for fear of making a clown of myself. But here goes. Are Briggs 3hp's the same crankcase size as Briggs 5hp's? Also, did Briggs 3hp engines ever have governors? Mine doesn't seem to...

    Tec carb on a Briggs

    I saw this on someone else's post. Couldn't see how they had done it. Any insight? The linkage issue is a real problem and I'm wondering how he linked the cable to the carb itself.

    Ok. Gote runs. Finally(not intermidently this time). Time to clean her up. Now just to get this straight, degrease, sand, paint, clear coat? Or is there any other secret tricks to apply?

    I heard those things aren't very good... the copies at least.

    Sidekick engine?

    Say if I was going to mount a different carb on my engine other than the nasty flo jet. How would I go about doing that on a 3hp, using something other than a mikuni(fear of cost).

    Sidekick engine?

    About a year back, I obtained two sidekicks. Did they come with 2.5hp briggs, or 5hp briggs?

    Manifold for a 2.5?

    After giving it much thought, I've decided to keep my Sidekick as stock as possible(Big thanks to DaddyJohn). The one thing I would love to change and get rid of, however, it's the flo jet. God I absolutely hate that thing with a passion. The only problem is, I can't imagine how to hook another...

    Making a gote with a torque converter

    Yeah, that sounds like a better idea. Was looking for some trails to ride, and I now think that riding classic is better.

    Making a gote with a torque converter

    So a while back, I got a Tote Gote Sidekick. I'll be damned if I wasnt proud of the damn thing, too. I got it running, and managed to putt around the neighborhood(Neighbors not enthused. Who would be? A 17 year old on a minibike? What's more dangerous than that?). But the engine took a nosedive...

    Briggs 3 horse carb gasket template?

    Damn. Really gotta get the Gote running. Was really hoping to strike gold and find a template. While this thread is here, through, does anyone know what the float gap is supposed to be on a 3 hp Briggs and Strapon?

    Briggs 3 horse carb gasket template?

    Hey guys. Has anyone got a template for a carb gasket? Specifically a 3 - 3.5 horse. I'm tired of buying chinese offshore gaskets that break in a week. So I'm makin my own. I've included a picture. On the right is the good gasket. The left is the crappy one. Any help is appreciated.
