That is essentially a CVT type transmission. I seen the same setup on a 1901 Orient 1 cyl runabout at Ft. Edmonton Park. It would be nice on a modern car! Except it would have to be on a bigger scale! I just got a new MTD 26" with a Powermore 277cc engine. I seen MTD's video on these engines. I hope they are reliable.
Probably a stupid question but why not use lithium grease on the wheel axle insted of the oil out of the can? Is there any significance to it ,or is the oil good enough and lithium overkill or more expensive?
@whitegreg56 gas isn't really that dangerous unless using on a hot engine whilst your smoking. As long as you do not use to much is not dangerous. degreaser is very expensive and is made of mostly gas and flammable products. i have al ways used gas by putting some on a rag. i would never pour it onto what i am cleaning. it sometimes works to use a metal tin and fill it with gas then put your parts in that , it cleans then real good. however after than put on wd40 to stop it rusting

@kimokanka lithium is expensive or u can use regular grease for the axle

I'm thinking that using gasoline as an inexpensive cleaner may be dangerous. Might be better to use a cleaner/degreaser.

When you replace the friction disk, do you need to adjust the cable to the friction plate?

@cnaray sometimes, not always though, if it rubs on the plate then i loosen the cable
