Seafoam a good idea here?

 

I keep hearing how great Seafoam is and was thinking it might be a good idea to try some in a 5 h.p. Briggs & Stratton engine on my gocart. This engine is now 14 years old and has ONLY ever had oil and plug changes. I am hoping this will clean it out and bring back some extra power it might have lost over time?

gocart brigs and straton 5hp not staying running?

 

This is a few year old motor it was sitting for about 1 year so i completely cleaned it and the crab. it runs perfect for like 2 minutes then just smokes out of the carb and shuts off and wont start unless it sits for a fee minutes and then does the same thing. What is the thing under the gas talk that goes in the engine it is connected to the throttled and moves when u hit the throttle. i don’t know what its called but when u hit the throttle it goes down and when u let it off it comes back up.

Need mechanical help with Off road gocart/dunebuggy I plan to build from scratch?

 

My plan is to build a gocart that has independant suspension so it can go off road easily. I want a four seater but I would rather have a two seater if the extra size decreases handling or stability(and by stability I mean it wont roll easy ). I need a gocart that is almost like a four wheeler (in the sense that it is small)but has a verrrrry quiet, low profile muffler even though it will lower my power. I want it to look and sound like a kids(small) gokart so no one will know the power I have unless I start roastin’. I want it to be as stable as possible so it wont roll( wide compared to skinny) I want neumatic airbags so I can tilt my kart and drive on a hill. I need help with figuring out what kind of parts I will use (ie. how big of axle what engine how much it will cost) how to make it have a low center of gravity and be very stable, how to incorporate all these parts, and your own modification Ideas. any help is greatly needed and appreciated
thanks guys,
