Hi All, been doing a bit of practising on our Prokart and while revving it up, we noticed the left engine was picking up before the right one was. I fiddled with the throttle cable adjustment and managed to get them somewhere near but was then gobsmacked that we had found 0.7 sec! (it was extremely wet though)
In hindsight, I shouldn't be surprised at the difference but then it begs the question, how do you synchronise them so that both throttles open at the same time?
Is it better to use a straight throttle linkage as opposed to a sprung one?
Many thanks in anticipation
