78 kitty starts an idles fine, but wont move track
Got a 78 kitty (spirit eng) as a "basket " case. Motor was all put together when I got it, but govenor linkage (on outstide of motor) was disconnected. I've got a lot of time into this sled and it looks great. Sled will start and idol, but will not move the track. Can anyone help me, my daughters almost four now and is ready to sart riding. thanks

The PTO is the shaft that comes out of the engine and has the clutch attached to it . If thats not turning while the engine is running then your missing something in the gear box . The engine has to turn around 3600rpms for the clutch to start engaging . Are you thinking the engine is not reving up high enough ?

Yeah. I don't think we're getting enough rpms. The pto end of shaft is not turning. I have built my share of arctic cats, so I know a little about 2 stroke motors, but i can't figure this problem out, so naturally my first guess is the governor or whats going on inside the transfer case. Also the motor was intact when i got the sled , but the governor linkage was disconnected and taken apart - another reason i'm suspecting it.
