If you would really like to know more on how this transmission works you can find a lot on the web which I am sure they would be better at it then me.For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding.
The belt actually is adjusted just fine as is, so when I replace the belt it will be adjusted like it is now. I plan on doing some sanding and adding a coat of red spray paint to it before turning it back over to the owner. What you dont have is a mechanical torque converter which is used in a go-cart. This transmission is being used more all the time, in ATVs, snowmobiles, and modern cars. The reason they use them are because they are cheap to make, very little to go wrong in repairs, and they are very efficient. I see you have a Comet torque converter which they still are making and selling today. ![]() There are some very good Internet sites to look at if you want to know how this transmission works. You call the Comet a torque converter, yet say its a CVT, unlike gokarts. My Gokart torque converter works almost exactly the same way, in that the front (engine) pulley dia totally adjusts to engine speed, as it seems like this one does. ![]() I will try my best to get through this but some times Im not that good at explaining myself. Comet is a company that makes CTV transmissions but calls them Comet torque converters, why I dont know. I dont know their history but for myself I have worked on Comet CTV transmissions in snowmobiles since in the early 60s and as far as I know they still are making them. There has to be a lot of different set ups and different brands of go carts and seeing the only ones I ever worked on were my grandsons. What they had was just a simple single speed on and off torque converter. I dont know what you have As to what I can see in the picture you have a CTV transmission which is two pulleys that work just the opposite from each other which acts as a automatic transmission and this drives a FWDREV gearbox. Like I said earlier this transmission is being used more all the time. A lot of car companies are using CTV transmissions now like Ford, Chrysler, Nissan. Most any ATV with a automatic transmission uses it now along with all snowmobiles and it sound like your go cart does.
