    • @badhat1973
      @badhat1973 Рік тому

      That's normal, it's the automatic shutoff switch. You can try adjusting the governor, it could be running at to many rpms. I just ignore the backfire because mine has had the governor removed.

    Where do you buy parts

  • @jthompson5059
    @jthompson5059 2 роки тому

    I just bought one this same year, I hear this particular year is a one off. Anyway, I replaced the carb, plug, wire, coil, fuel filter, and air filter. It runs really strong, but there is a terrible lag when you hit the gas to when it actually takes off. Its like it has a stall converter in it. It can take 5 seconds or longer most of time. When Im driving it and I completely let off the gas pedal, then step on it again it does the same thing; crazy lag. But if I dont let completely off the pedal, then its fine. Any thoughts? I was thinking possibly the drive belt, but I know nothing about 2 strokes, really. Any help would be appreciated. thanks

    • @badhat1973
      @badhat1973 2 роки тому

      It could be the governor cable, mine had a similar problem when I bought it. If that isn't it I'd check the reed valves, they're under the carb.

    how do you change oil on one of these cant how?

    • @badhat1973
      @badhat1973 2 роки тому

      This one is a 2 cycle so the oil is in the gas. Ezgo made a 4 cycle the same year as this one. You change the oil on that one basically the same as anything else. There's a oil plug on the bottom of the engine, kinda hard to see the plug if I remember right. I don't think they have a oil filter on these early ezgo's.

    I have got one of these golf carts and it runs perfectly fine in reverse, almost like a sowing machine. I put it in forward and it just has no power and you have to play with the choke to get it to move. My thought is could the timing be off a tick or so?

      @paprecisiontv1635 2 роки тому

      or possibly your starter belt could need to be tightened drive belt should be loose and starter belt should be pretty decently tight but I'm thinking crankshaft seals read lots of threads about this over the years and this 85% of the time is the issue

    • @badhat1973
      @badhat1973 2 роки тому

      I had a old ezgo that did the same thing. Drove me nuts for awhile trying to figure it out. Turned out the little engine had low compression. Why it would run fine in reverse but had no power in forward I have no idea, but a new piston had it back running fine.

      So....ya think someone who works for a living shouldn't be allowed to own even a worn out Cadillac. Interesting, either you think junkie old Cadillacs are way more special than they are, or you don't think much of the labor of working Man. Either way, kinda says more about you than you wanna say in public.

    Question: I can get limited spark. Won't turn over. Put a new spark plug in. Stalled after half hr of driving hard. Never started again. I had about 110:1 fuel:oil ratio in it. Battery ok. What do you recommend for next steps to diagnose problem?

    • @badhat1973
      @badhat1973 2 роки тому

      I'd check to see if it has compression. Turn it over by hand, if it spins with no resistance then the engine probably needs rebuilt. If it has resistance then it's probably the carburetor, carburetors are cheap online so for most people it's probably easier to just replace it rather than clean the carburetor.

      It's a golf cart, but I actually considered building a pull behind lawn mower for if once. Golf carts can pull a heavy trailer but it can wear out the belt. The largest trailer I've pulled with it was 18 feet long and was loaded with furniture.

    • @badhat1973

      It's flopping whether I want it to or not. Disney Star Wars will only be remembered because of how bad it is, there isn't going to be a fandom in 20 years. Personally I'd be a happy man if Disney went out of business, but I'll settle for them taking a big enough of a financial hit that they think twice about pulling this again. But either way they've lost mine and millions of people's business and they have no one else to blame except their self's.
