Default Have one quick question!!

Hey everyone I have one quick question:

I have my Gx390 clone engine mounted in the cart and everything is ready to go. I have a comet 780 clutch but it didn't come with a bolt and neither did the engine. Can anyone tell me what size the bolt is? It would be greatly appreciated!!

Haha very very funny.

I tried doing some research on it to find what size bolt it takes and no luck. I found one that seems to fit in it but Im scared to use it and then strip my whole crankshaft out.

I don't remember the exact thread size but its a standard one found at tractor supply. Could be a 3/8 24 thread.

I ran by Home depot and got a few assorted sized bolts. I ended up figuring it out. 7/16 fine thread was the correct size. Apparently the Honda engines have different size crankshaft threads than the clones? Nothing like Chinese engineering!

I just grabbed the first thing I saw that resembled a bolt and impacted it in there. J/K dont try that.

Glad you found the right bolt. Did you drive it yet? They are peppy engines for not being a big block.
