Also check your toe.

Could be too much toe in. Get someone to check the toe while you're in the kart. Start with everything straight ahead and straight up while the chassi has you in it. As for the push, a common problem on a narrow enduro kart, move each rear wheel out a 1/2" and increase the pressure 1 or 2 psi.
